據油價網2月15日消息稱，隨著歐洲天然氣價格飆升和地緣政治緊張局勢加劇，美國這些天以創紀錄的速度出口液化天然氣。

據彭博社報道，周六，美國7個液化天然氣出口設施的每一艘液化天然氣船都在裝貨或停靠，導致創紀錄的133億立方英尺的天然氣流向美國液化天然氣出口終端。

據彭博社報道，這是所有七個液化天然氣出口終端首次出現油輪同時裝載或停靠裝載天然氣的情況。

此外，彭博社的估計顯示，超過三分之二的液化天然氣貨物從美國運往歐洲。

創紀錄的美國液化天然氣出口受到歐洲高昂的天然氣價格以及俄羅斯和烏克蘭之間以及西方和俄羅斯在烏克蘭問題上日益緊張的刺激。

美國液化天然氣出口正飆升至創紀錄水平，隨著更多出口產能上線，預計將繼續飆升。美國能源信息署12月表示，隨著越來越多的美國液化天然氣出口項目投入使用，到2022年底，美國7個液化天然氣出口設施和44條液化生產線的名義產能將增至114億立方英尺/天，峰值產能將增至139億立方英尺/天。這將超過世界另外兩個主要液化天然氣出口國卡塔爾和澳大利亞各自的產能。

U.S. Exports LNG At A Record Pace

The U.S. is exporting liquefied natural gas at a record pace these days, as gas prices and geopolitical tensions in Europe rise amid the energy crisis .

LNG tankers were loading or being docked at each of the seven LNG export facilities in the United States on Saturday, leading to a record 13.3 billion cubic feet of natural gas flows to U.S. LNG export terminals, Bloomberg reports.

This is the first time that all seven LNG export terminals have seen tankers loading or docked for loading gas at the same time, according to Bloomberg.

In addition, more than two-thirds of all LNG cargoes traveling out of the United States are headed to Europe, Bloomberg’s estimates show.

The record U.S. LNG exports are incentivized by high natural gas prices in Europe and the growing tensions between Russia and Ukraine, and the West and Russia over Ukraine.

U.S. LNG exports are soaring to record levels and are expected to continue to surge as more export capacity comes online. Thanks to a growing number of U.S. LNG export projects coming into service, by the end of 2022, U.S. nominal capacity will increase to 11.4 billion cubic feet per day (Bcf/d) and peak capacity to 13.9 Bcf/d across 7 LNG export facilities and 44 liquefaction trains, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) said in December. That will be more than the respective capacities of Qatar and Australia, the other two major LNG exporters in the world.
