據(jù)管道新聞網(wǎng)7月6日消息稱，意大利天然氣網(wǎng)運營商Snam周三表示，該公司與BW液化天然氣公司簽署了一項價值4億美元的協(xié)議，購買一個浮式儲存和再氣化裝置（FSRU），羅馬正急于尋找天然氣的替代供應(yīng)。

去年，莫斯科供應(yīng)了意大利40%的天然氣進(jìn)口，即290億立方米。但自6月中旬以來，大國的天然氣供應(yīng)一直低于羅馬的要求，這加大了政府實現(xiàn)能源多樣化的壓力。

國家控股的Snam公司上個月從Golar LNG公司獲得了第一艘再氣化船，該公司表示，一旦與目前使用該裝置的第三方的合同到期，并完成審批程序，預(yù)計該裝置名為BW Singapore，將在2024年第三季度投入使用。

Snam首席執(zhí)行官Stefano Venier在一份聲明中說：“通過這次運營，我們?yōu)橐獯罄峁┝说诙€新的浮動再氣化裝置，從而為該國的能源安全和多樣化作出了決定性的貢獻(xiàn)。”

Venier補充說，最近被Snam收購的兩個FSRU將貢獻(xiàn)意大利13%的天然氣需求，并使該國的再氣化能力達(dá)到需求的30%以上。

Italy’s Snam Buys Floating Regasification Unit for $400 Million

Italy's Snam has signed a $400-million deal with BW LNG to buy a floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU), the gas grid operator said on Wednesday, as Rome rushes to find alternative supplies togas.

Last year Moscow supplied 40% of Italy's imports of gas, or 29 billion cubic meters. But since mid-June, the bigger producer has been supplying less gas than requested by Rome, increasing pressure on the government to diversify its energy sources.

State-controlled Snam, which last month acquired a first regasification vessel from Golar LNG, said it expected the unit, called BW Singapore, to become operational in the third quarter of 2024, once a contract with a third party currently using the unit expires and the permitting process is completed.

"With this operation, we are providing Italy with its second new floating regasification unit thus making a decisive contribution to the country's energy security and diversification," Snam CEO Stefano Venier said in a statement.

The two FSRUs which have recently been acquired by Snam will contribute 13% of Italy's gas demand and bring the country's regasification capacity to over 30% of demand, Venier added.
