据天然气资讯6月21日消息称，未来5年，澳大利亚油气行业将向昆士兰州提供近60亿澳元的特许权使用费，昆士兰州的液化天然气出口项目将为社区带来直接利益。
该行业的收入预计将从去年的27亿澳元增长到59亿澳元，比预期增长一倍多，这相当于每年为18万澳大利亚人提供医疗保健，或每年建造20所新小学。
澳大利亚石油生产协会昆士兰主管Matt paul表示，该州的预算显示，该州将继续受益于其对油气行业的投资和长期支持。
paul说：“随着石油和天然气使用费的飙升，昆士兰州政府每年将获得超过10亿澳元的收入，昆士兰州民众将通过重要的新公共服务和基础设施，从政府对该行业的支持中受益。
“尽管这些数字很大，但我们的经济贡献远远超过了专利费用数字——直接支持了昆士兰州天然气行业供应链上超过3万个工作岗位，促进了地区增长，并为家庭和企业提供安全可靠的能源。
“最近澳大利亚东海岸能源系统的压力凸显了天然气在清洁能源未来的重要性，尤其是昆士兰工业，为南部各州提供能源供应，取代煤炭作为低排放燃料，并在太阳不亮、风不刮的情况下稳定可再生能源。
“我们的行业能够为澳大利亚人提供能源安全保障，是因为昆士兰州政府采取了明智的措施，使其能源供应多样化，并在十多年来支持天然气和液化天然气的增长。
“这表明，强劲的出口行业带来了非常切实的好处，它也支撑了国内其他供应需求。”

Australia’s oil and gas industry royalties to double
Australia’s oil and gas industry will deliver almost AUS$6 billion of royalties to the Queensland Budget over the next five years, providing a direct benefit to the community from Queensland’s LNG export projects.
Revenue from the sector is set to more than double over the forward estimates to AUS$5.9 billion from AUS$2.7 billion forecast last year – the equivalent of providing healthcare for more than 180 000 Australians every year, or building 20 new primary schools every year.
Australian Petroleum Production & Association (APPEA) Queensland Director Matt Paull said the State budget showed the state was continuing to benefit from its investment and long running support of the oil and gas industry.
“With oil and gas royalties surging and now set to deliver the Queensland Government over AUS$1 billion a year going forward, Queenslanders will benefit from the state’s backing of the sector through vital new public services and infrastructure,” Mr Paull said.
“As big as these numbers are, our economic contribution is far greater than just royalty figures – directly supporting over 30 000 jobs across Queensland’s gas industry supply chain, facilitating regional growth, and delivering safe and reliable energy to homes and businesses.
“Recent east coast energy system pressures have highlighted the importance of gas in a cleaner energy future and particularly the Queensland industry, providing supply to southern states, replacing coal as a lower emitting fuel and stabilising renewables when the sun does not shine and the wind does not blow.
“Our industry can provide this energy security to Australians because the Queensland Government has done the sensible thing and diversified its energy supplies and supported growth in natural gas and LNG for more than a decade.
“This shows there are very real benefits from a strong export industry, which has also underpinned extra domestic supply.”
