-- 根據新聞媒體週一報道,一艘液化天然氣(LNG)運輸船已抵達德克薩斯州的黃金通道(Golden Pass)出口設施,裝載該工廠的首批超低溫天然氣,這標誌著在經歷了建設延誤後,該項目取得了關鍵進展。 船舶追蹤數據顯示,這艘名為「Al Qaiyyah」號的LNG運輸船隸屬於卡達能源公司(QatarEnergy),已停靠在該碼頭。 黃金通道公司尚未回覆的置評請求。 黃金通道公司於3月30日宣布已生產出首批液化天然氣。路透社報道稱,首批液化天然氣預計將運往義大利。 卡達能源公司持有該專案70%的股份,埃克森美孚(XOM)持有剩餘的30%。 根據媒體報道,截至週一,該設施正在處理約4億立方英尺的天然氣,約為其首條液化生產線日處理量8億立方英尺的一半。另有兩套液化天然氣生產線仍在興建中。 1號生產線年產能600萬噸。根據股權比例,卡達能源公司預計每年將獲得略高於400萬噸的液化天然氣,而埃克森美孚公司將獲得略低於200萬噸的液化天然氣。 埃克森美孚公司租用的第二艘液化天然氣運輸船“HL Sea Eagle”號週一出現在墨西哥灣,似乎正駛向金山口,這表明它可能正在裝載下一批貨物。

Asia Biofuels Update: Malaysian Palm Oil Diverges from Crude Oil on Weaker Exports, Stronger Ringgit
Malaysian palm oil futures slipped on Monday, pulling away from crude oil prices, as weaker exports and a stronger local currency weighed on sentiment.Reversing the previous session's gains, the Bursa Malaysia Derivatives' May crude palm oil contract fell 0.66% to 4,487 Malaysian ringgit ($1,134.94) per metric ton. The June contract dropped by 0.96% to 4,521 ringgit/mt in midday trade.Malaysian shipments for the April 1-25 period reportedly declined 15.7% from a month earlier, according to cargo surveyors cited by Trading Economics.A stronger Malaysian ringgit, which rose against the US dollar by 0.28% on Monday, could further pressure exports as it makes them costlier.The recent drop in Malaysian shipments followed a 29.1% year-over-year rise in Q1 exports, as buyers advanced purchases due to the expected surge in shipping costs and as volumes of rival Indonesian cargoes softened due to higher export levies.Indonesia's move to raise its palm-based biodiesel blending to 50% from 40% beginning July 1 could further lift Malaysian exports going forward.The Malaysia Palm Oil Council said Indonesia's B50 program could absorb an additional 3 million metric tons per year of palm oil. Annual domestic consumption in Thailand could also increase by 350,000 metric tons as the country moves to B7 from B5, while demand in Malaysia could rise by 300,000 mt as the government raises its biodiesel blend to B15 from B10.Rising biofuel demand, elevated crude oil prices, and supply risks from the potential development of an El Nino weather trend will support palm oil prices, with the MPOC projecting them at around 4,500 ringgit/mt in the near term."However, further gains are likely to be capped by softer export demand amid inflation and weaker economic growth in key importing countries, alongside rising stocks as palm oil production gradually enters its seasonal peak," the MPOC said.According to Jim Teh, senior palm oil trader at Interband Group of Co., as cited by Bernama, palm oil prices could trade between 4,200 ringgit/mt and 4,300 ringgit/mt this week due to profit taking.
