据离岸工程9月2日报道,阿根廷国家石油公司YPF和马来西亚国家石油公司(Petronas)签署了一项初步协议,将在阿根廷建造一个大型液化天然气工厂和相关管道。
根据联合研究和开发协议(JSDA),两家公司将评估开发阿根廷综合液化天然气项目的可行性,该项目估计耗资近100亿美元。
该项目将包括上游天然气生产、液化天然气生产、管道和基础设施开发,以及营销和航运。
预计在运营的第一年生产500万吨液化天然气的YPF-Petronas项目,预计需要10年时间才能完成。
该项目的峰值年产能将达到2500万吨天然气。该项目将包括一条从阿根廷瓦卡穆尔塔页岩区延伸出的600公里管道。
路透社称出口的来源将是瓦卡穆尔塔页岩地层。
马来西亚国家石油公司总裁兼集团首席执行官Datuk Tengku Muhammad Taufik表示,马来西亚国家石油公司在整合液化天然气和非常规油气方面的专业知识,利用瓦卡穆尔塔巨大的非常规天然气资源,将为双方进一步探索阿根廷潜在的液化天然气机会增加价值,并发挥协同作用。
彭博新闻社援引YPF主席Pablo Gonzalez的话表示,YPF和马来西亚国家石油公司可能会为拟议的液化天然气项目寻找潜在合作伙伴。
该协议可能会使阿根廷成为液化天然气市场的“一个重要的全球参与者”。
马国油和YPF还签署了一份谅解备忘录,在其他领域进行合作,包括在阿根廷的上游石油、石化和清洁能源解决方案。

Argentina’s YPF and Petronas partner for $10bn LNG project
Argentina’s state oil company YPF and Malaysian firm Petronas have signed a preliminary deal to build a major liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant and the associated pipeline in Argentina.
Under the joint study and development agreement (JSDA), the two firms will assess the feasibility of the development of the Argentina Integrated LNG project, which is estimated to cost nearly $10bn.
The project will comprise upstream gas production, LNG production, pipelines, and infrastructure development, as well as marketing and shipping.
Expected to produce five million tonnes of LNG in the first year of operation, the YPF-Petronas project is anticipated to take ten years to complete.
The project will have a peak production capacity of up to 25 million tonnes of gas annually. It will include a 600km pipeline out of the Vaca Muerta shale patch in Argentina.
It was cited by Reuters as saying that the source of the exports will be the Vaca Muerta shale formation.
Petronas president and group CEO Datuk Tengku Muhammad Taufik said: “Petronas’ expertise in integrated LNG and unconventional plays will add value to the intent and synergy of both parties in further exploring potential LNG opportunities in Argentina, leveraging on Vaca Muerta’s vast unconventional gas resources.”
YPF and Petronas could seek potential partners for the proposed LNG project, reported Bloomberg News, citing YPF Chairman Pablo Gonzalez.
Petronas and YPF also signed a memorandum of understanding to collaborate in other areas including upstream oil, petrochemicals, and clean energy solutions in Argentina.
