據天然氣加工網站1月28日消息 亞洲現貨液化天然氣價格本周上漲，主要原因是日本和亞洲北部部分地區的寒冷天氣提振了需求，以及對俄羅斯中斷歐洲供應的擔憂。

業內消息人士稱，3月份運往東北亞的液化天然氣平均價格升至27美元/百萬英熱單位，較上周上漲4美元，漲幅17.4%。

交易商表示，日本的寒冷天氣導致液化天然氣庫存迅速下降，并促使一些公用事業公司在現貨市場購買，以確保額外供應。

Refinitiv氣象學家艾薩克·漢克斯預計，到2月份，亞洲地區的寒冷天氣將緩慢擴大，預計日本的氣溫將比正常溫度低1-2攝氏度。

Asian prices rise on Japan's colder weather, Russia-Ukraine tensions

Asian spot liquefied natural gas (LNG) rose this week as cold weather in Japan and parts of northern Asia lifted demand and amid concerns over European supply disruptions from Russia.

The average LNG price for March delivery into north-east Asia rose to $27.00 per metric MMBtu, up $4.00 or 17.4% from the previous week, industry sources said.

Colder weather in Japan has caused a rapid decline in LNG stockpiles and prompted some utilities to buy on the spot market to secure additional supplies, traders said.

Refinitiv meteorologist Isaac Hankes expects colder weather to slowly expand over Asia into February, with temperatures forecast 1-2 degrees Celsius lower than normal in Japan.
