據世界能源網7月31日轉發離岸技術網消息，英國石油公司（bp）與奧地利石油公司（OMV）簽署了有效期為十年的液化天然氣供應協議，該協議從2026年開始生效。

根據這項長期銷售和購買協議，bp將向OMV提供高達100萬噸的LNG。

該LNG將由bp的多元化全球LNG組合中交付。

bp表示，LNG將通過荷蘭鹿特丹的Gate LNG終端向OMV輸送，而OMV擁有再氣化能力。

bp全球LNG交易和首席副總裁Jonty Shepard表示：“在bp，我們將LNG視為能源轉型的重要組成部分，也是我們轉型為綜合能源公司的重要部分。”

“我們很高興與OMV達成此LNG銷售和購買協議，我們與他們之間有著長期的合作關系。歐洲是一個重要的LNG市場，與OMV達成的協議進一步證明了我們在該地區的LNG供應能力，能夠為我們的歐洲客戶提供安全穩定的供應。”

在另一項聲明中，OMV表示，在奧地利地區的Wittau Tief-2a勘探井發現了新的天然氣資源。

初步評估顯示，該井具有約48TWh（28百萬桶石油當量）的潛在可采儲量。該公司預計，在全面開發該發現后，可使其在奧地利的天然氣產量增加50%。

OMV首席執行官兼執行董事會主席Alfred Stern表示：“我們勘探的結果對OMV及其客戶來說是一個令人興奮的消息。在我們繼續努力實施多元化天然氣供應來源戰略的同時，這一新發現對我們的客戶尤其是奧地利的天然氣供應做出了重大助力，預計將增加我們的當地產量。”

BP Signs Long Term LNG Supply Agreement With Austria's OMV

Bp has signed an agreement with Austria’s OMV to supply the latter with LNG for a period of ten years, effective from 2026.

Under the long-term sale and purchase agreement bp will supply up to one million tonnes of LNG to the Austrian company.

The LNG will be delivered from bp’s diverse and global portfolio of LNG.

bp said that the LNG will be received and re-gasified through the Gate LNG terminal in Rotterdam, the Netherlands, where OMV owns regasification capacity.

bp global LNG trading and origination vice-president Jonty Shepard said: “At bp, we see LNG as an essential part of the energy transition and essential for our own pivot to becoming an integrated energy company.

“We are pleased to conclude this LNG sale-and-purchase agreement with OMV, with whom we have a longstanding relationship. Europe is a significant LNG market and this agreement with OMV further demonstrates our LNG supply capability in the region, supporting security of supply for our European customers.”

In a separate announcement, OMV said it has made new gas discovery at the Wittau Tief-2a exploration well located in Lower Austria.

As per the preliminary evaluation, the well has potential recoverable resources of approximately 48TWh (terra watt hour or 28 million barrels of oil equivalent).

The company expects the discovery to increase its natural gas production in Austria by 50% after full development.

OMV CEO and executive board chairman Alfred Stern said: “The positive result of our exploration is an exciting news for OMV and its customers. As we continue to work on our strategy to diversify our supply sources of natural gas, this new find marks a major contribution to the natural gas supply of our customers especially in Austria, with an expected increase of our local production.”
