據4月20日Kallanish Energy報道，3月份全球液化天然氣(LNG)出口量達到了3040萬噸，與去年同期的30.8萬噸相比略有下降。

ClipperData的液化天然氣分析主管卡里姆?阿斯加爾(Kaleem Asghar)表示，3月北美液化天然氣出口量同比增長80%，至460萬噸。與2月份的出口量相比增加了20萬噸。其中大部分出口產品來自阿拉伯海灣地區。卡塔爾主導的貨運總量達800萬噸，高于去年同期的770萬噸和今年2月的780萬噸。

亞太地區的液化天然氣出口量約為750萬噸，較上年同期增長10%，比一個月前增加約80萬噸。

俄羅斯北部上個月裝載了170萬噸液化天然氣，同比增加了10萬噸。亞馬爾液化天然氣項目所在的地區，與2月份的出口量相比，也增加了10萬噸。

數據分析顯示，亞瑪爾液化天然氣終端裝填了24艘貨物，其中9艘運抵比利時的澤布呂格港，3艘運抵挪威霍寧斯瓦格。其余的出口地包括:法國（7艘），西班牙（2艘），荷蘭（2艘），英國（1艘）。

在進口方面，Asghar估計，3月全球共有519艘船運送了3210萬噸液化天然氣。較去年同期的3050萬噸增長了7.21%。東亞接收了1650萬噸的過冷燃料，同比增長5.09%；南亞進口量達330萬噸，同比增長7%。

Global LNG exports slightly up in March

Global liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports reached around 30.4 million tonnes in March--a slight drop compared to 30.8 Mt shipped a year earlier, Kallanish Energy reports.

According to Kaleem Asghar, director of LNG analytics at ClipperData, LNG exports in North America were up 80% year-on-year to 4.6 Mt last month. These volumes were also up 200,000 tonnes compared with February’s exports.

Most of March’s exports left the Arab Gulf region. The Qatar-led shipments totaled 8 Mt – up from 7.7 Mt in March 2019 and 7.8 Mt in February.

The Asia-Pacific region exported about 7.5 Mt of LNG, which is a 10% increase y-o-y and roughly 800,000 tonnes more than it did a month earlier.

Northern Russia loaded 1.7 Mt last month, compared with 100,000 tonnes in March 2019. The region, where the Yamal LNG project operates, also saw an increase of 100,000 tonnes compared with exports in February.

The ClipperData analysis showed that 24 vessels left the Yamal LNG project, with nine tankers arriving at Belgium’s Zeebrugge port and three at Norway’s Honningsvag STS point. The remaining exports include: seven to France, two to Spain, two to Netherlands and one to UK.

In terms of import flows, Asghar estimated that 32.7 Mt of LNG arrived on 519 vessels in terminals around the world last month. This is a 7.21% increase over the 30.5 Mt in March 2019.

East Asia took in 16.5 Mt of the supercooled fuel – an increase of 5.09% y-o-y, while South Asia saw a 7% rise y-o-y to 3.3 Mt.
