據(jù)7月9日Offshore Energy消息：繼5月創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄下跌后，日本液化天然氣現(xiàn)貨價(jià)格顯示出小幅回升跡象。

根據(jù)日本經(jīng)濟(jì)產(chǎn)業(yè)省公布的數(shù)據(jù)，6月運(yùn)往日本的現(xiàn)貨液化天然氣平均合約價(jià)格為3.80美元/百萬(wàn)英熱。

與5月創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的低點(diǎn)相比有所上升，當(dāng)時(shí)合約價(jià)格達(dá)到2.20美元/百萬(wàn)英熱。

但與去年同期相比仍有所下降，當(dāng)時(shí)合約價(jià)格為5.5美元/百萬(wàn)英熱。

日本經(jīng)濟(jì)產(chǎn)業(yè)省數(shù)據(jù)顯示，基于抵貨的現(xiàn)貨價(jià)格也從上月2.6美元/百萬(wàn)英熱上漲至3.80美元/百萬(wàn)英熱，但遠(yuǎn)低于2019年6月的7.5美元/百萬(wàn)英熱。

該數(shù)據(jù)只包括日本公用事業(yè)公司和其他進(jìn)口商購(gòu)買的現(xiàn)貨液化天然氣。不包括與特定價(jià)格指數(shù)掛鉤的貨運(yùn)交易，比如美國(guó)亨利樞紐價(jià)格。

Japan’s spot LNG prices start to pick up

Japanese spot LNG cargo prices are showing signs of slight recovery following a record drop in May.

The effects of the Covid-19 coronavirus pandemic have weighed down on Japan’s spot LNG prices pushing them to record lows in previous months.

The average contract price for spot LNG cargoes shipped to Japan in June stood at $3.80/mmBtu, according to data released by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

This is a rise compared to a record low in May when the contracted price reached $2.20 per mmBtu.

But its still represents a decline when compared to the same month a year ago when the contracted price was $5.5/mmBtu.

METI’s data shows the arrival-based spot price was also at $3.80/mmBtu rising from last month’s $2.60/mmBtu but substantially down from $7.50/mmBtu recorded in June 2019.

The ministry surveys only spot LNG cargoes purchased by Japanese utilities and other importers.

It excludes cargo deals linked to a particular price index such as the US Henry Hub.
