據(jù)天然氣資訊1月13日消息稱，南澳大利亞政府已經(jīng)批準(zhǔn)在阿德萊德港外港建設(shè)一個(gè)2.5億澳元的液化天然氣進(jìn)口終端。

該終端將成為南澳大利亞州唯一的液化天然氣進(jìn)口設(shè)施，也是世界上第一個(gè)由可再生能源供電的終端。

威尼斯能源公司董事總經(jīng)理Kym Winter-Dewhirst對(duì)這一聲明表示歡迎，并表示該終端將有助于南澳向更可再生能源景觀的過(guò)渡。

Winter-Dewhirst表示：“威尼斯是一家綜合能源公司，旨在為南澳大利亞不斷增長(zhǎng)的可再生能源部門(mén)帶來(lái)一系列項(xiàng)目的成果——這個(gè)終端標(biāo)志著我們的第一個(gè)項(xiàng)目，我們很高興能獲得繼續(xù)推進(jìn)的綠燈?！?/p>

他表示:“通過(guò)這個(gè)終端，我們將向國(guó)際天然氣市場(chǎng)開(kāi)放，并使當(dāng)?shù)氐奶烊粴夤?yīng)多樣化，尤其是在高峰時(shí)期?！?這將防止未來(lái)幾年預(yù)測(cè)的國(guó)內(nèi)天然氣短缺影響到南澳大利亞州和維多利亞州，并將給當(dāng)?shù)乜蛻舻奶烊粴鈨r(jià)格帶來(lái)下行壓力。

Australian LNG import terminal granted development approval

The South Australian Government has approved the construction of an AUS$250 million LNG import terminal to be built in the Outer Harbour of Port Adelaide.

The terminal will become the only LNG import facility in South Australia and the first in the world to be powered by renewable energy.

Venice Energy’s Managing Director, Kym Winter-Dewhirst welcomed the announcement and said the terminal will contribute to South Australia’s transition to a more renewable energy landscape.

“Venice is an integrated energy company and one that aims to bring a range of projects to fruition that enable the growing renewables sector in South Australia – this terminal marks our first project and we are thrilled to receive the green light to proceed,” Mr Winter-Dewhirst said.

“Through this terminal, we will open the state to the international gas market and diversify local gas supplies, especially during peak periods,” he said. This will prevent forecast domestic gas shortages from impacting both South Australia and Victoria in the coming years and will place downward pressure on gas prices for local customers.

Construction is expected begin mid-next year and will take 12 - 14 months to complete and commission following financial close.

The first shipment of LNG into the terminal and connection to the South Australian gas network is anticipated around late 2023 to early 2024.
