匈牙利首次與殼牌簽訂LNG長期供應協(xié)議

據(jù)9月11日Neftegaz.RU.報道，這項經(jīng)由克羅地亞Krk液化天然氣終端的天然氣供應協(xié)議，標志著匈牙利第一次與西方公司簽署液化天然氣購買協(xié)議。

路透社援引匈牙利外交部長Peter Szijjarto的話稱:“匈牙利首次與西方公司簽署了長期天然氣供應協(xié)議。匈牙利將確保10%的天然氣供應來自西方，這是匈牙利朝著能源多樣化邁出的一大步。”

殼牌的全球執(zhí)行副總裁Istvan Kapitany表示，天然氣可以幫助滿足對日益增長的清潔能源的需求，取代煤炭或其他液體燃料。天然氣將通過克羅地亞Krk島的一個液化天然氣終端輸送。Krk終端預計將在未來幾個月內(nèi)投入使用。

今年6月，匈牙利國有企業(yè)MVM宣布，計劃從2021年到2028年，每年通過Krk終端購買多達10億立方米的天然氣。

匈牙利的天然氣供應一直依賴俄羅斯，除了俄羅斯天然氣工業(yè)股份公司(Gazprom)之外，匈牙利從未與任何天然氣銷售商簽訂過長期供應協(xié)議。

俄羅斯天然氣工業(yè)股份公司從2019年年初到10月29日向匈牙利出口了約93億立方米的天然氣，與2018年對匈牙利的天然氣總供應量相比，增長了22%。

Hungary will buy 250 million m3 of LNG per year for 6 years from Royal Dutch Shell

The deal for gas supplies arriving via Croatia's Krk LNG terminal marks the 1st Hungary has signed with a Western company.

Hungary Foreign Affairs Minister Peter Szijjarto was quoted by Reuters as stating: “Hungary signed a long-term gas supply agreement for the first time with a Western company. Hungary will secure 10% of its gas supply from the West, which is a huge step in Hungary’s energy diversification.”

Shell’s Global Executive Vice President Istvan Kapitany said that natural gas could help fulfill the demand for increasing quantities of clean energy, replacing coal or other liquid fuels.

The gas will be delivered through an LNG terminal on the island of Krk in Croatia. Krk terminal is expected to come online in the next few months.

In June this year, Hungary’s state-owned firm MVM announced plans to purchase up to 1 billion cubic metres (bcm) of gas per annum through the Krk terminal from 2021 to 2028.

By and large, Hungary has been dependent on Russia for its gas supply and has never been in any long-standing supply agreement with any gas seller except Russia’s Gazprom.

In 2019, Gazprom exported an estimated 9.3 billion cubic meters of gas to Hungary from the year’s beginning through October 29, and that is already a 22 % increase compared with the total gas supplies to Hungary recorded in 2018.
