石油设备网讯 日本Inpex公司表示，第100批液化天然气货物从澳大利亚北领地达尔文附近的Ichthys液化天然气陆上处理设施出发的。
Inpex在声明中称，这些货物装载在Pacific Arcadia号液化天然气船上。
Inpex总裁兼澳大利亚董事Hitoshi Okawa表示:“自2018年10月以来，Inpex运营的Ichthys液化天然气设施已全面安全投产。”
Ichthys液化天然气项目是全球最大、最复杂的能源开发项目之一，也是日本公司最大的一笔海外投资。
Okawa还表示，Ichthys的液化天然气是Inpex在澳大利亚业务的核心，也是该公司全球能源业务的基石。
他表示:“我们的首要任务是确保我们在澳大利亚的液化天然气设施在预期的40年寿命内得到充分利用。”
Ichthys项目一旦全面投产，两条液化生产线每年总共能生产约890万吨液化天然气。
在生产高峰期，该工厂预计每月可生产约10批货物，或每年可生产约120批货物。
出口项目产生的大约70%的液化天然气将供应给日本客户。

Inpex ships milestone Ichthys LNG cargo
Japan’s Inpex Corporation said that the 100th shipment of liquefied natural gas departed from the Ichthys LNG onshore processing facilities located near Darwin in the Northern Territory.
The cargo was loaded onboard the Pacific Arcadia LNG carrier, Inpex said in its statement.
Inpex president and director Australia, Hitoshi Okawa said, “Inpex-operated Ichthys LNG facilities are safely ramping up to full production, exporting 100 LNG, 24 liquefied petroleum gas and 46 condensate cargoes since October 2018.”
Ichthys LNG is one of the largest and most complex energy developments in the world and represents the single largest overseas investment by a Japanese company.
Okawa also said Ichthys LNG is central to Inpex’s operations in Australia and forms a cornerstone of the company’s global energy business.
“Our priority is to ensure our LNG facilities in Australia are fully utilized over their expected 40-year lifespan,” he said.
once in full production, the Ichthys project will be able to produce about 8.9 million tons of LNG per year from its two liquefaction trains.
At peak production, the facility is expected to be able to produce about 10 cargoes per month or about 120 cargoes per year.
about 70 percent of the LNG produced by the export project will be supplied to Japanese customers.
