石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏首尔1月14日消息，韩国国有企业韩国天然气公司(Korea Gas Corp .)的管理人士周一表示，由于发电需求减弱和冬季天气温和，该公司12月份的液化天然气销量同比下降6.6%。 在连续12个月上涨后，这是连续第二个月下跌。 在11月和12月天然气销量下降之前，这家国有公用事业公司10月份液化天然气销量同比增长37.9%，创下2010年4月以来8年多来的最大增幅。 在国内天然气销售中拥有垄断地位的科加斯公司去年12月销售了429万吨天然气，高于上年同期的460万吨。 但12月份的销量较11月份的310万吨增长了38.3%。 在该公司上个月的液化天然气总销量中，发电机的购买量同比下降12.2%，至157万吨，这也是连续第二个月下降。 12月，面向家庭和企业的零售天然气公司销售同比下降3%，至272.1万吨。 Kogas没有透露其在2018年全年售出了多少液化天然气，但普氏能源资讯基于Kogas之前的报告计算得出的数据显示，该公司在1月至12月期间销售了3622万吨，较2017年的3216万吨增长了12.6%。 2018年全年，对发电企业的天然气销售增长19.1％至1640.6万吨，而家庭和企业的销售增长7.7％至1981.3万吨。2017年，Kogas的液化天然气销售较2016年的3277万吨下降1.9%。 Kogas将去年液化天然气销售量的增长归因于天然气发电厂的运营增加，这与总统Moon Jae-in推动减少该国严重依赖煤炭和核电发电的努力相一致。 在Moon推动提高核安全的努力下，该国24个核反应堆中的许多都因维修而关闭。 该国还在3月至6月关闭了五个老化的燃煤发电厂，为期四个月，这是减少空气污染的举措之一，也助于提高用于发电的液化天然气消费量。 Kogas一位官员表示:“在政府推动能源从煤炭和核能向可再生能源和液化天然气转型的背景下，预计今年Kogas的液化天然气销售将保持强劲。” 陈菲 摘译自 普氏能源资讯 原文如下： South Korean Kogas’ Dec LNG sales fall 6.6% on year South Korean state-owned Korea Gas Corp’s LNG sales fell 6.6% year on year in December due to weaker demand for power generation and mild winter weather, company officials said Monday. It marks the second consecutive month of decline after rising for 12 months in a row. The declines in November and December came after the state utility’s LNG sales jumped 37.9% year on year in October which marked the biggest increase in more than eight years since April 2010. Kogas, which has a monopoly in domestic natural gas sales, sold 4.29 million mt in December, compared with 4.60 million mt a year earlier. But the December sales were up 38.3% from 3.10 million mt sold in November. Of the utility’s total LNG sales last month, purchases by power generators dipped 12.2% year on year to 1.57 million mt, which was also the second straight month of decline. Sales to retail gas companies for households and businesses also fell 3% year on year to 2.721 million mt in December. Kogas did not disclose how much LNG it sold for the full 2018 year, but S&P Global Platts calculations based on Kogas’ previous reports showed it sold 36.22 million mt over January-December, up 12.6% from 32.16 million mt in 2017. For full-year 2018, sales to power generators jumped 19.1% to 16.406 million mt, while sales to households and businesses rose 7.7% to 19.813 million mt. Kogas’ LNG sales fell 1.9% in 2017 from 32.77 million mt in 2016. Kogas attributed the increase in LNG sales last year to higher operation of natural gas-fired power plants in line with President Moon Jae-in’s push to reduce the country’s heavy reliance on coal and nuclear in power generation. Under Moon’s push to boost nuclear safety, many of the country’s 24 nuclear reactors were shut for maintenance. The country also closed five aging coal-fired power plants for four months from March to June as part of efforts to reduce air pollution, which helped boost LNG consumption for power generation. “Kogas’ LNG sales are expected to remain strong this year on the back of the government’s push for energy transition from coal and nuclear to renewables and LNG,” a Kogas official said.
