石油设备网讯 据路透社5月22日消息称，据路透社报道，澳大利亚能源零售商澳洲能源已签署初步协议，将从澳大利亚工业能源公司计划的液化天然气进口设施购买天然气。
路透社报道，澳大利亚第三大能源零售商澳洲能源因此成为第一个同意从肯布拉港液化天然气设施购买天然气的客户，该工厂由杰拉、日本丸红商事和Squadron能源提供支持。
据路透社报道，在耗资2.5亿澳元的项目最终投资决定(FID)做出之前，这家澳大利亚工业能源合资企业正寻求锁定天然气客户。据报道，该计划将在该港口停泊一个浮动存储和再气化装置(FSRU)，该装置将能够进口大约200万吨/年的液化天然气。
据路透社报道，这将足以为新南威尔士州提供大约100拍焦/年的天然气，目前新南威尔士州的大部分天然气需求都依赖于邻国。
据路透社报道，澳大利亚工业能源公司已经达成协议，在将在5年内以与石油价格挂钩的价格，向澳洲能源提供15拍焦/年的天然气。这些供应将于2021年1月开始。

EnergyAustralia to purchase gas from Australian import terminal
According to Reuters, Australian energy retailer EnergyAustralia has signed a preliminary agreement to purchase gas from the LNG import facility planned by Australian Industrial Energy.
Reuters reports that EnergyAustralia – the third largest energy retailer in Australia – is therefore the first customer to agree to purchase gas from the Port Kembla LNG facility, backed by JERA, Marubeni Corp. and Squadron Energy.
According to Reuters, before a final investment decision (FID) on the AUS$250 million project is made, the Australian Industrial Energy joint venture is looking to lock in customers for gas. Reportedly, the plan is to moor a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) at the port, which will be capable of importing approximately 2 million tpy of LNG.
Reuters reports that this will be enough to supply approximately 100 PJ/yr to New South Wales, which currently depends on neighbouring states for the majority of its gas requirements.
According to Reuters, Australian Industrial Energy has reached an agreement to provide 15 PJ/yr of gas to EnergyAustralia over a five-year period at an oil-linked price. These supplies will commence as of January 2021.
