中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价12月17日报道称,俄罗斯媒体援引法国经济部长勒梅尔在巴黎与俄罗斯经济部长马克西姆.奥雷什金会晤后的话说,法国正在延长对俄罗斯液化天然气(LNG)项目-亚马尔LNG和北极LNG两个项目的国家担保。
勒梅尔表示,法国还将为俄罗斯的两个液化天然气项目提供更长期的贷款偿还期限,法国石油和天然气集团道达尔在这两个项目中持有股份。
“我确认我们决定延长偿还贷款的期限,就国家担保而言 - 这是法国政府对亚马尔(LNG)项目的担保。该项目的所有参与者也都希望这样。”俄罗斯塔斯社周一援引勒梅尔的话报道称。
“这是成功的,同时也是一个经济信号,但背后有一个政治信号,那就是我们希望在亚马尔(LNG)项目的基础上加强我们在能源领域的合作。北极LNG-2项目也是如此 - 对我们来说非常重要的是,有很多法国公司可以参与其中。”
道达尔在俄罗斯诺瓦泰克领导的亚马尔LNG项目中持有20%的股份,中国石油天然气集团公司和丝路基金也参与了该项目。亚马尔LNG项目于去年年底开始运营。运营商诺瓦泰克本月早些时候表示,亚马尔LNG项目在工厂的三条液化天然气管线已达到满负荷运行。

France Extends State Guarantee For Total-Participated Russian LNG Projects
France is extending the state guarantees for the Russian liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects Yamal LNG and the Arctic LNG 2 projects, Russian media quoted France’s Economy Minister Bruno Le Maire as saying after a meeting with his Russian counterpart Maxim Oreshkin in Paris.
According to Le Maire, France will also provide longer terms for loan repayment for the two Russian LNG projects, in which French oil and gas major Total has stakes.
“I confirm that we made a decision to give longer terms for repayment of loans, as for the state guarantees - this is a guarantee of the French state to the Yamal (LNG) project. All participants in this project requested it,” Russia’s TASS news agency quoted Le Maire as saying on Monday.
“This is a success and an economic signal, but behind there is a political signal that we want to strengthen our cooperation in the energy sector based on the Yamal (LNG) project. The same goes to the Arctic LNG-2 project - it is very important for us that the largest number of French companies could take part in it.”
Total holds 20 percent in the Yamal LNG project led by Russia’s Novatek and also participated by Chinese CNPC and Silk Road Fund. Yamal LNG started operations at the end of last year. Operator Novatek said earlier this month that Yamal LNG had reached full capacity at the plant’s three LNG trains.
