9月日本LNG現(xiàn)貨進(jìn)口價格上漲32%

據(jù)10月14日Kallanish Energy報道，日本9月份進(jìn)口的液化天然氣(LNG)現(xiàn)貨價格較上月大漲32.35%，顯露出冬季供暖季節(jié)前需求復(fù)蘇的跡象。

該國經(jīng)濟(jì)、貿(mào)易和工業(yè)部(METI)的最新數(shù)據(jù)顯示，基于合約的平均現(xiàn)貨價格為4.5美元/百萬英熱。而8月份的平均價格為3.40美元/百萬英熱。

然而，這個價格仍低于去年同期水平。2019年9月，現(xiàn)貨價格平均為5.40美元/百萬英熱。

經(jīng)濟(jì)產(chǎn)業(yè)省的數(shù)據(jù)還顯示，到貨價格從八月份的2.6美元/百萬英熱上升到上個月的3.4美元/百萬英熱，上漲了30.7%。

這些價格不包括與Henry Hub和JKM等地區(qū)指數(shù)掛鉤的現(xiàn)貨交易，主要是日本公用事業(yè)公司和其他進(jìn)口商購買的現(xiàn)貨液化天然氣。

Japan’s spot LNG import prices up 32% in September

Japanese spot liquefied natural gas (LNG) prices have surged 32.35% month-on-month in September, supporting signs of demand recovery ahead of the winter heating season.

Latest data from the country’s ministry of economy, trade and industry (METI) shows that the average contract-based spot price was at $4.50 per million British thermal units (MmBtu). In August, the price averaged $3.40/MmBtu.

However, prices remain below levels recorded last year. In September 2019, contracted spot prices were traded at an average of $5.40/MmBtu, Kallanish Energy reports.

METI data also shows that the arrival-based price was up 30.7% from $2.6/MmBtu in August, to $3.4/MmBtu last month.

These prices exclude spot transactions linked to regional indexes such as the Henry Hub and the JKM. They reflect spot LNG cargoes purchased by Japanese utilities and other importers.
