卡塔尔与新加坡的天然气协议关注碳排放

据11月10日Oil Monster消息：卡塔尔与新加坡签署了首个长期液化天然气协议，其中详细说明了增长最快的化石燃料所造成的污染。

 

    该协议是天然气行业如何专注于变得更清洁的最新迹象。尽管燃料的污染程度远低于石油和煤炭，但随着各国寻求实现严格的气候目标，该行业正面临越来越大的减排压力。

 

    根据卡塔尔石油公司贸易部门和Pavilion Energy Pte签订的10年协议，每批货物都将附带一份温室气体排放量的声明。该协议涵盖了从2023年起每年多达180万吨的碳排放。没有碳抵消的义务，但目的是减少排放。

 

    该公司首席执行官弗雷德里克·巴诺在签字仪式上表示:“在能源向低碳经济转型的背景下，此次合作是对两家公司可持续发展动力的证明，也是Pavilion Energy追求脱碳和抵消战略的强烈意愿的证明。”

 

    今年3月，Pavilion Energy发起了一项招标活动，要求竞标者承诺帮助开发一种量化和报告液化天然气行业排放的方法。

    Qatar, Singapore Natural Gas Deal Will Detail Carbon Emissions

 

    Qatar and Singapore signed the first long-term liquefied natural gas deal that details pollution from the fastest growing fossil fuel.

 

    The accord is the latest sign of how the gas industry is focusing on getting cleaner. Even if the fuel is much less polluting than oil and coal, the sector is under increasing pressure to reduce emissions as nations are seeking to meet strict climate targets.

 

    Each cargo delivered under the 10-year agreement between Qatar Petroleum’s trading arm and Pavilion Energy Pte will come with a statement of how much greenhouse gas emissions it caused. The accord covers as much as 1.8 million tons per year from 2023. There is no obligation for carbon offsets, but the intent is there to reduce emissions, Pavilion said.

 

    “In the context of energy transition toward a low-carbon economy, this partnership is testament to the sustainability drive of both companies and the strong willingness of Pavilion Energy to pursue decarbonization and offset strategies,” Frederic Barnaud, the company’s chief executive officer, said at the signing.

 

    Pavilion Energy in March launched a tender, asking bidders to commit to help develop a methodology to quantify and report emissions in the LNG industry.
