据路透社3月25日迪拜报道，巴林官方媒体援引巴林国家石油和天然气管理局（NOGA）首席执行官的话说，巴林的液化天然气终端将于5月开始商业运营，第一批液化天然气货运将主要从阿联酋阿布扎比国家石油公司进口。

巴林液化天然气公司的网站上表示，该公司是巴林希德的哈利法·本·萨勒曼港口接收设施和再气化终端的开发商。

据网站报道，该终端还拥有一个近海液化天然气接收码头和防波堤、一个再气化平台、从平台到岸上的海底天然气管道、一个陆上天然气接收设施，以及一个陆上氮气生产设施。

根据Referitiv Eikon数据显示，巴林第一艘液化天然气浮动储存装置停泊在阿联酋的富查伊拉港。

巴林通讯社援引NOGA首席执行官贾西姆·阿尔·谢拉维周一的话说，这艘存储装置预计将于5月抵达希德终端。

该报告没有具体说明总的发货量，而雪佛龙稍后将交付其中的一小部分。

他对该通讯社表示，该终端已经完成了98%以上的准备，试用期将只持续几个星期。

用阿尔·谢拉维的话说：“巴林已经与全球超过25家公司和天然气生产商签署了进口液化天然气的协议。”

该液化天然气进口终端每天的产能为8亿立方英尺，随着对天然气的需求增长，巴林将能够进口超级冷冻燃料，以满足大型工业项目、发电和生产石油的需求。

Bahrain LNG terminal to start commercial operations in May

Bahrain’s liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal will start commercial operations in May, with the first LNG shipment to be imported mostly from the UAE’s ADNOC, state media quoted the CEO of Bahrain’s National Oil and Gas Authority (NOGA) as saying.

Bahrain LNG is the developer of the receiving and regasification terminal within the Khalifa bin Salman Port facility in Hidd, Bahrain, Bahrain LNG’s website says.

The terminal also houses an offshore LNG receiving jetty and breakwater, a regasification platform, subsea gas pipelines from the platform to shore, an onshore gas receiving facility, and an onshore nitrogen production facility, according to the website.

Bahrain’s first LNG floating storage unit is anchored in the United Arab Emirates’ Fujairah port, Refinitiv Eikon data shows.

The storage unit is expected to arrive at the Hidd terminal in May, Bahrain News Agency quoted NOGA chief executive Jassem al Shirawi as saying on Monday.

The report did not specify the overall shipment amount, a small part of which Chevron will deliver later.

The terminal is more than 98 percent ready and the trial period will last only a few weeks, he told the news agency.

“Bahrain has signed agreements with more than 25 companies and gas-producing countries from around the world to import LNG,” al Shirawi was quoted as saying.

The LNG import terminal, with a capacity of 800 million cubic feet per day, will allow Bahrain to import the super-chilled fuel as demand grows for natural gas to feed large industrial projects, generate power and produce oil.
