中国石化新闻网讯 据世界天然气网站5月25日消息 马来西亚能源巨头马来西亚国家石油公司公布称,由于贸易活动增加,其季度液化天然气销售增长6%。
该公司第一季度的液化天然气销量为999万吨,去年同期为940万吨。
马来西亚国家石油公司表示,液化天然气产量也增加了3%,达到739万吨,主要原因是原料气供应量增加,宾图鲁液化天然气厂业绩稳定。
然而,液化天然气领域良好的运营结果并不能帮助马国油克服由Covid-19冠状病毒大流行造成的全球需求下滑的影响。
马国油第一季度利润下降68%,主要原因是石油、天然气和液化天然气价格下跌。
该公司表示,由于疫情导致全球封锁,经济活动骤然下降,公司目前所处的经营状况“前所未见”。
从项目来看,马国油在本季度有多个液化天然气开发项目,其中一个项目是其第二个浮式液化天然气设施PFLNG Dua抵达位于马来西亚沙巴近海的罗坦气田。
马国油计划在年底前将150万吨/年的产能装置商业化。
马国油通过视频电话会议签署的第一笔虚拟液化天然气交易,将看到该公司在婆罗洲岛上提供一个ISO储罐灌装设施。

Petronas boosts Q1 LNG sales, production
Malaysian energy giant Petronas reported a 6 percent rise in its quarterly liquefied natural gas sales, boosted by higher trading activities.
The company’s LNG sales volume stood at 9.99 million tonnes in the first quarter compared to 9.40 million tonnes in the same quarter a year ago.
LNG production volumes also increased by 3 per cent to 7.39 million tonnes mainly due to higher feedgas supply and stable Bintulu LNG plant performance, Petronas said.
However, good operational results in the LNG segment could not help Petronas overcome the effects of global demand slump caused by the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic.
Petronas logged a 68 per cent drop in first-quarter profit mainly due to declining oil, gas and LNG prices.
The company said it was operating in “unprecedented market conditions” due to the sudden drop in economic activities following global lockdowns caused by the pandemic.
Looking at projects, Petronas had more than a few LNG developments during the quarter and one of them was the arrival of its second floating LNG unit, PFLNG Dua, at the Rotan gas field, located offshore Sabah, Malaysia.
Petronas plans commercialisation of the 1.5 mtpa production capacity unit by the end of the year.
The first virtual LNG deal for Petronas signed via a video teleconference will see the Malaysian company supply an ISO tank filling facility on the island of Borneo.
