石油设备网讯 据世界天然气网站6月5日消息 西班牙液化天然气终端运营商Reganosa表示，位于费罗尔港的穆加多斯液化天然气工厂从位于德克萨斯州的切尼尔Corpus Christi项目接收了第一批液化天然气货物。
Reganosa在声明中称，去年12月开始运营的切尼尔Corpus Christi工厂预计每年的额定产量为2300万吨。
将第一批货物从Corpus Christi运输到西班牙的船只是2002年建造的液化天然气运输船Excalibur号，其能够运输14.4万立方米的冷冻燃料。Reganosa进一步表示，这批货物已被瑞士贸易公司Trafigura购买。
运营商表示，费罗尔正试图在将从北美流入欧洲的液化天然气流量增加中发挥重要作用。
切尼尔估计，美国将在2020年成为全球第三大液化天然气供应商，年产能为6000万吨。
由于其天然气基础设施以及西班牙主要能源公司签订的长期合同，西班牙将成为北美燃料的主要接收者之一。
运营商的声明称，费罗尔及其在大西洋地区的位置使Reganosa的工厂成为获得该流量的最佳场所。

Mugardos LNG receives its first Corpus Christi cargo
Spanish LNG terminal operator Reganosa said its Mugardos liquefied natural gas plant in the port of Ferrol receives the first LNG load from Cheniere’s Corpus Christi project in Texas.
Cheniere’s Corpus Christi plant that kicked off operations last December has an estimates nominal production of 23 million tonnes per year, Reganosa said in its statement.
The vessel that transported the first cargo from Corpus Christi to Spain is the 2002-built LNG carrier Excalibur capable of transporting 144,000 cubic meters of the chilled fuel. Reganosa further said the cargo has been purchased by the Swiss trading company Trafigura.
The operator said that Ferrol is trying to play an important role in the increasing LNG flow that will come to Europe from North America.
Cheniere estimates that the USA will become the third greatest world supplier of LNG in 2020, with a production capacity of 60 million tonnes per year.
Spain will be one of the main receivers of the North American fuel, due to its gas infrastructures and the long term contracts signed by the main Spanish energy companies.
Ferrol and its location in the Atlantic area make Reganosa’s plant the best place to get that flow, the operator’s statement reads.
