中国石化新闻网讯 据油气新闻网2月16日报道，壳牌周四表示，由于全球供应仍然有限，欧洲对液化天然气(LNG)需求的增加将在未来两年与亚洲在海运燃料方面的竞争加剧。
壳牌在其2023年液化天然气展望中表示，包括英国在内的欧洲国家去年进口了1.21亿吨液化天然气，较2021年增长60%，帮助欧洲大陆应对地缘政治冲突后管道进口量的削减。
壳牌认为，在短期内，全球液化天然气市场预计将保持紧张，并受到供需冲击的影响，新供应有限。为了满足未来的液化天然气需求，将需要对供应进行更多投资。
壳牌表示，2022年，全球液化天然气贸易总量达到3.97亿吨。行业预测预计到2040年，超冷燃料的需求量将增加一倍，达到7亿吨，并补充称，预计到本世纪20年代末，供需缺口将出现。

Europe LNG demand to fuel competition with Asia
Europe’s increased need for liquefied natural gas (LNG) will fuel competition with Asia for the seaborne fuel over the next two years because global supply remains limited, Shell said>European countries, including the UK, imported 121 million tonnes of LNG last year, up 60% from 2021, helping the continent to cope with cuts to Russian pipeline imports after its invasion of Ukraine, Shell said in its LNG outlook for 2023.
"In the near term, the global LNG market is expected to remain tight and exposed to supply and demand shocks, with limited new supply coming>Total global LNG trade reached 397 million tonnes in 2022. Industry forecasts expect demand for the chilled fuel to almost double to 700 million tonnes by 2040, Shell said, adding that a supply-demand gap is expected to emerge by the late 2020s.
