據(jù)油價(jià)網(wǎng)2023年6月1日多哈報(bào)道，卡塔爾能源公司首席執(zhí)行官薩阿德·卡阿比周四在多哈表示，卡塔爾能源公司已與孟加拉國(guó)簽署一項(xiàng)長(zhǎng)期液化天然氣供應(yīng)協(xié)議，從2026年開(kāi)始向孟加拉國(guó)國(guó)家石油公司供應(yīng)液化天然氣，為期15年。

液化天然氣買家正在尋求長(zhǎng)期供應(yīng)，特別是確保從卡塔爾大規(guī)模擴(kuò)建項(xiàng)目獲取穩(wěn)定天然氣供應(yīng)，使自己免受現(xiàn)貨價(jià)格波動(dòng)的影響。

特別是孟加拉國(guó)，它是受液化天然氣現(xiàn)貨價(jià)格飆升打擊最嚴(yán)重的南亞經(jīng)濟(jì)體之一，去年與印度和巴基斯坦等其他買家一道退出了現(xiàn)貨市場(chǎng)。

甚至包括德國(guó)在內(nèi)的一些歐洲國(guó)家的政府，在能源危機(jī)前由于碳排放問(wèn)題而不愿簽署長(zhǎng)期協(xié)議，現(xiàn)在也對(duì)此類協(xié)議持開(kāi)放態(tài)度。

卡阿比周四在新聞發(fā)布會(huì)上表示：“與孟加拉國(guó)簽署的協(xié)議是卡塔爾未來(lái)北方油田東部(NFE)和北方油田南部(NFS)擴(kuò)建項(xiàng)目液化天然氣的最新長(zhǎng)期協(xié)議。”

卡塔爾能源公司高管表示：“卡塔爾液化天然氣出口的大部分將運(yùn)往亞洲，其余將運(yùn)往歐洲，就NFE和NFS的產(chǎn)量而言，都將全部售罄。”

今年4月，卡塔爾能源公司表示，該公司將把NFE擴(kuò)建項(xiàng)目開(kāi)發(fā)中5%的股份對(duì)外轉(zhuǎn)讓。這個(gè)項(xiàng)目是液化天然氣行業(yè)歷史上最大的項(xiàng)目。這家卡塔爾公司去年選擇了道達(dá)爾能源公司、殼牌公司和康菲公司作為合作伙伴，這3家公司在NFE和NFS擴(kuò)建項(xiàng)目中持有少數(shù)股權(quán)。

卡塔爾在2021年公布了這個(gè)世界上最大的液化天然氣項(xiàng)目，這個(gè)項(xiàng)目將把卡塔爾的液化天然氣年產(chǎn)能從7700萬(wàn)噸提高到1.1億噸。

Qatar Signs Long-Term LNG Supply Deal With Bangladesh

QatarEnergy has signed an agreement to supply liquefied natural gas (LNG) to Bangladesh's state firm PetroBangla for 15 years beginning in 2026, Saad al-Kaabi, chief executive at the Qatari state company said on Thursday.

LNG buyers are looking for long-term supply to secure gas from Qatar's massive expansion projects to insulate themselves from volatile spot prices.

Bangladesh, in particular, was one of the South Asian economies most hit by the soaring LNG spot prices and withdrew from the spot market last year, alongside other buyers such as India and Pakistan.

Even some governments in Europe—including Germany's—which were reluctant to sign long-term deals before the energy crisis due to emissions concerns, are now open to such deals.

"If a European is actually negotiating with me and has an issue, he will tell me 'I have an issue with duration,' I've not heard that," QatarEnergy's al-Kaabi said at a news conference, as quoted by Reuters.

The deal with Bangladesh is the latest long-term agreement for LNG from Qatar's future North Field East (NFE) and North Field South (NFS) expansion projects.

"The majority (of LNG exports) will be going to Asia and the other will be going to Europe and we'll be more than sold out as far as volumes of NFE and NFS," QatarEnergy's top executive said.

In April, QatarEnergy said it would transfer a 5% stake in the development of the huge NFE expansion project, the largest project in the history of the LNG industry. The Qatari company picked last year TotalEnergies, Shell, and ConocoPhillips as partners to hold minority stakes in the NFE and NFS expansion projects.

Qatar announced in 2021 the world's largest LNG project, which is set to raise its LNG production capacity from 77 million tons per annum (mmtpa) to 110 mmtpa.
