據(jù)油價網(wǎng)2022年11月28日米蘭報道，意大利能源巨頭埃尼公司(Eni)首席執(zhí)行官克勞迪奧·德斯卡爾西周一在米蘭舉行的一個商業(yè)活動上表示，如果意大利希望擁有能源安全和足夠的天然氣供應(yīng)，意大利將需要再新建4個液化天然氣（LNG）進口設(shè)施。

德斯卡爾西在米蘭舉行的“倫巴第2030”活動上表示：“阿爾及利亞對意大利的天然氣出口增加了一倍多，利比亞增加了天然氣供應(yīng)，意大利還從埃及、安哥拉、尼日利亞接收天然氣，并從擁有巨大天然氣儲量的莫桑比克接收第一批天然氣。”

這位埃尼公司高管補充說：“現(xiàn)在的問題是，這些天然氣是通過LNG運輸船流入的，我們沒有足夠的再氣化能力。我們現(xiàn)在需要更多的再氣化基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施。”

德斯卡爾西說，以年消耗300億立方米天然氣的西班牙為例，其再氣化能力為600億立方米。與此同時，意大利只有170億立方米的進口能力，預(yù)計皮翁比諾和拉文那的進口終端將增加100億立方米進口量。  

德斯卡爾西說：“我們還需要40億立方米才能保證完全的能源安全。”

到2023年底前，目前正在7個歐盟國家建設(shè)的再氣化終端將每天額外增加35億立方英尺的新產(chǎn)能。 根據(jù)美國能源信息署基于國際液化天然氣進口商集團(GIIGNL)公布的數(shù)據(jù)表示，德國、波蘭、法國、芬蘭、愛沙尼亞、意大利和希臘目前正在努力擴大液化天然氣進口能力 。  

意大利目前正在皮翁比諾港附近開發(fā)一個浮式存儲再氣化裝置(FSRU)終端，該終端每天將增加5億立方英尺的產(chǎn)能，并可能在2023年春天投入使用。

Eni CEO: Italy Needs More LNG Terminals To Ensure Energy Security

Italy would need another four LNG import facilities if it wants to have energy security and enough supply of natural gas, Claudio Descalzi, chief executive of Italian energy giant Eni, said at a business event in Milan on Monday.

“Algeria has more than doubled gas exports to Italy, Libya has increased gas supply, and Italy also receives gas from Egypt, Angola, Nigeria, and the first cargo of gas from Mozambique, which has enormous gas reserves,” Descalzi said at the Lombardia 2030 event in Milan.

“The problem is that those flows come with tankers and we don’t have enough regasification capacity. We need additional regasification infrastructure,” Eni’s top executive added.

Spain, for example, which consumes 30 billion cubic meters, has a regasification capacity of 60 billion cubic meters, Descalzi said. Italy, meanwhile has just 17 billion cubic meters of import capacity, which is expected to rise by 10 billion cubic meters with the terminals at Piombino and Ravenna.

“We will need another 4 billion cubic meters to have full energy security, Descalzi said.

Regasification terminals currently under construction in seven EU countries could add an additional 3.5 Bcf/d of new capacity by the end of 2023. Germany, Poland, France, Finland, Estonia, Italy, and Greece are currently working to expand LNG import capacities, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), based on data from the International Group of Liquefied Natural Gas importers (GIIGNL).

Italy is currently developing a floating storage regasification unit (FSRU) terminal near the port of Piombino, which will add 0.5 Bcf/d of capacity and will likely come online in the spring of 2023.

However, the Italian government and the city of Piombino are at odds over the construction of the import terminal. The government and the region of Tuscany have approved and are pushing to advance the project, but the city of Piombino in Tuscany is challenging the plan in court.
