Long-term SPA Expected to Support Sabine Pass Expansion Project
長期 SPA 有望支持 Sabine Pass 擴建項目
Cheniere Energy, Inc. ("Cheniere" or the "Company") (NYSE:LNG) announced today that Cheniere's subsidiary, Cheniere Marketing, LLC ("Cheniere Marketing"), has entered into a long-term liquefied natural gas ("LNG") sale and purchase agreement ("SPA") with BASF ("BASF").
Cheniere Energy, Inc.（“Cheniere” 或 “公司”）（紐約證券交易所代碼：LNG）今天宣佈，Cheniere的子公司Cheniere Marketing, LLC（“Cheniere Marketing”）已與巴斯夫（“巴斯夫”）簽訂了長期的液化天然氣（“LNG”）買賣協議（“SPA”）。
Under the SPA, BASF has agreed to purchase up to approximately 0.8 million tonnes per annum ("mtpa") of LNG from Cheniere Marketing on a free-on-board ("FOB") basis for a purchase price indexed to the Henry Hub price, plus a fixed liquefaction fee. Deliveries will commence in mid-2026 and, subject to a positive Final Investment Decision with respect to the first train ("Train Seven") of the Sabine Pass Liquefaction Expansion Project ("SPL Expansion Project") in Louisiana, will increase to approximately 0.8 mtpa upon the start of commercial operations of Train Seven. The term of the SPA extends through 2043.
根據該協議，巴斯夫已同意每年從Cheniere Marketing購買約80萬噸（“mtpa”）的液化天然氣，價格與Henry Hub價格掛鉤，外加固定的液化費，價格與Henry Hub的價格掛鉤。交付將於2026年年中開始，在路易斯安那州Sabine Pass液化擴建項目（“SPL擴建項目”）的第一列火車（“七號列車”）做出積極的最終投資決定後，交付量將在七號列車開始商業運營後增加到每年約80萬噸。最高人民會議任期將延續到2043年。
"We are pleased to enter into this long-term relationship with BASF, a global leader in the chemical industry," said Anatol Feygin, Cheniere's Executive Vice President and Chief Commercial Officer. "This SPA demonstrates the critical role US natural gas plays in providing long-term secure, sustainable and affordable energy for Europe. With this agreement, we are supporting the objectives of one of Europe's key industrial end-use consumers to ensure stability of its supply chain."
Cheniere執行副總裁兼首席商務官Anatol Feygin表示：“我們很高興與化工行業的全球領導者巴斯夫建立這種長期合作關係。“本次戰略合作協議展示了美國天然氣在爲歐洲提供長期安全、可持續和負擔得起的能源方面所起的關鍵作用。通過該協議，我們支持歐洲主要工業最終用途消費者之一的目標，以確保其供應鏈的穩定。”
"By establishing our own dedicated LNG supply chain with Cheniere, we are diversifying our energy and raw materials portfolio at a time of critical changes in the European gas market, which is marked by increased demand and volatile prices for LNG," said Dr. Dirk Elvermann, BASF's Chief Financial Officer. "While we are reducing our dependence on fossil fuels to reach our goal of net zero CO2 emissions by 2050, this agreement will ensure reliable supply of natural gas at competitive terms."
巴斯夫首席財務官德克·埃爾弗曼博士表示：“通過與Cheniere建立自己的專用液化天然氣供應鏈，在歐洲天然氣市場發生重大變化的時候，我們正在實現能源和原材料組合的多元化，其特點是液化天然氣需求增加和價格波動。”“儘管我們正在減少對化石燃料的依賴，以實現到2050年二氧化碳淨零排放的目標，但該協議將確保以具有競爭力的條件可靠地供應天然氣。”
The SPL Expansion Project is being developed for up to approximately 20 mtpa of total LNG capacity. In May 2023, certain subsidiaries of Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P. (NYSE:CQP) entered the pre-filing review process with respect to the SPL Expansion Project with the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission under the National Environmental Policy Act.
SPL擴建項目正在開發中，液化天然氣總產能高達每年約2000萬噸。2023年5月，Cheniere Energy Partners, L.P.（紐約證券交易所代碼：CQP）的某些子公司根據《國家環境政策法》向聯邦能源監管委員會進入了SPL擴建項目的申報前審查程序。
