Equinor北極LNG工廠將于1月1日重啟

據(jù)天然氣加工網(wǎng)站10月12日消息 Equinor在一份監(jiān)管聲明中稱，公司位于挪威的Melkoeya液化天然氣工廠上個月在火災(zāi)中受損，預(yù)計將于2021年1月1日恢復(fù)生產(chǎn)。

挪威石油安全局當(dāng)時表示，9月28日發(fā)生在工廠一臺發(fā)電渦輪機(jī)上的大火在大約6個小時后被撲滅。

歐洲唯一一家大型液化天然氣工廠位于北極城市哈默費(fèi)特附近，每天可處理1800萬立方米的天然氣，這些天然氣來自距離巴倫支海約160公里（100英里）的Snoehvit海上氣田。

在將天然氣冷卻至液體后，再通過油輪運(yùn)往歐洲和亞洲的能源市場。

Snoehvit氣田由Equinor、派特洛、道達(dá)爾、海王星能源和溫特沙爾所有。

Equinor's Arctic LNG plant to reopen on Jan. 1

Equinor's Melkoeya LNG plant in Norway is expected to resume output on Jan. 1, 2021, after it was damaged in a fire last month, the company said in a regulatory statement.

The fire on Sept. 28 in one of the plant's electricity-generating turbines was extinguished after about six hours, Norway's Petroleum Safety Authority said at the time.

Europe's only large-scale LNG plant, near the Arctic town of Hammerfest, can process 18 million cubic metres (mcm) of gas per day, which is piped in from the offshore Snoehvit field some 160 km (100 miles) away in the Barents Sea.

After cooling the gas until it turns to liquid, it is shipped in tankers to energy markets in Europe and Asia where it is converted back to its original form before use.

The Snoehvit gas field is owned by Equinor, Petoro, Total , Neptune Energy and Wintershall Dea.
