原标题：中国振华石油寻求与当地公司合作建设首个天然气码头来源：WorldEnergy（原文直译，有些表达不是很恰当，请以原文为主） 中国振华石油正在就加入一家省级政府支持的公司在华东建设天然气接收站进行深入讨论，这是国营贸易商将拥有的第一个进口设施。 振华石油(Zhenhua Oil)是利基天然气进口商之一，预计将与民营企业新奥集团(ENN Group)和管道天然气分销商广州燃气(Guangzhou Gas)等公司一道，引领下一波终端扩建浪潮。中国正加大对低碳燃料替代煤炭的使用。 消息人士称，作为国防巨头北方工业集团的子公司，振华正在敲定与江苏国信投资集团的合资企业，江苏国信投资集团是一家由省政府支持的拥有天然气管道的公司，用于终端投资。 2020 年，江苏是中国最大的天然气消费省，用气量为 307 亿立方米，略低于中国总量的 10%。 一位直接了解此事的消息人士表示：“（拟议中的）合资企业结合了国信作为最大天然气消费地区的省级管道运营商的优势和振华作为拥有全球油气资产的经验丰富的交易商的实力。” 消息人士称，国信预计将持有拟合资企业的 61%、振华 34% ，洋口港务局剩余 5% 的股份。 振华没有立即回应置评请求。国信的液化天然气子公司没有回复寻求置评的电子邮件。 消息人士称，在第一阶段的投资估计超过60亿元人民币(9.2884亿美元)，合作伙伴将建造三个 200,000 立方米的储罐，年处理能力为 300 万吨。 消息人士补充说，6月在如东县人造岛阳光岛开工建设，预计2023年底竣工。 振华是阿布扎比、埃及和哈萨克斯坦的中国国有石油和石油天然气生产企业中规模最小的一家，于2018年年中成立了液化天然气部门，此后一直是超冷天然气的活跃现货交易商。
它是最早赢得使用国有石油天然气巨头中海油运营的天然气终端拍卖的交易商之一，自2019年以来，其液化天然气交易量翻了一番，今年达到150多万吨。 江苏目前只有两个液化天然气接收站，每年能够处理950万吨进口液化天然气，是华南广东的一半。原文链接：https://www.world-energy.org/article/20071.htmlChina’s Zhenhua Oil is in advanced discussions to join a provincial government-backed firm to build a natural gas receiving terminal in east China, the first import facility the state-run trader will own a stake in.Zhenhua Oil is one of the niche gas importers expected to lead the next wave of terminal expansions along with companies like privately-run ENN Group and piped gas distributor Guangzhou Gas as China boosts use of the lower-carbon fuel to replace coal.A unit of state defense giant Norinco Group, Zhenhua is finalising a joint venture with Jiangsu Guoxin Investment Group, a firm backed by provincial government that owns gas pipelines, for the terminal investment, said the sources.Jiangsu was China’s top gas consuming province in 2020 with 30.7 billion cubic meters used, just under 10% of China’s total.The sources declined to be named as the matter is not public.“The (proposed) JV marries the strength of Guoxin as a provincial pipeline operator in a top gas consuming region and Zhenhua as an experienced trader with oil and gas assets globally,” said one of sources who has direct knowledge of the matter.Guoxin is expected to take 61% stake in the proposed venture, Zhenhua 34%, and port authorities of Yangkou the remaining 5%, said the source.Zhenhua did not immediately respond to a request for comment. Guoxin’s LNG subsidiary did not respond to an email seeking comment.Under phase one of the investment estimated at over 6 billion yuan ($928.84 million), the partners will build three 200,000 cubic meter tanks with annual handling capacity of 3 million tonnes, said the sources.Construction began in June at the man-made island of Yangguangdao in Rudong county, and is slated for completion by the end of 2023, the sources added.The smallest among China’s state-run oil and companies producing oil and gas in Abu Dhabi, Egypt and Kazakhstan, Zhenhua set up its LNG department in mid-2018 and has since been an active spot trader of the super-chilled gas.It’s one of the earliest traders that won auctions to use gas terminals operated by state oil and gas major CNOOC, and has doubled its LNG turnover since 2019 to reach over 1.5 million tonnes this year.Jiangsu currently has only two LNG terminals able to handle 9.5 million tonnes of LNG imports a year, half the capacity of south China’s Guangdong.
