德国天然气进口同比下降0.8%

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据管道新闻网10月13日消息称，德国巴法贸易统计办公室周三公布的数据显示，2021年前8个月，德国天然气进口量减少了0.8%，但由于价格飙升，其进口费用同比上涨了55.5%。

　　天然气供应紧张，导致欧洲和其他地区的天然气价格不断攀升，而俄罗斯从新的北溪2号管道输送天然气的时间也存在不确定性。

　　天然气、电力和碳交易商监控天然气进口，因为供需平衡会改变这三个批发市场的价格和交易量。

　　天然气的统计数据与煤炭相关，煤炭在发电方面与天然气竞争，同时也提供了对欧洲强制碳排放许可需求的线索。

　　巴法的月度数据显示，今年前8个月，德国天然气进口量为3458434太焦耳(TJ)，相当于983亿立方米，而去年同期为3487588太焦耳。

　　8个月来，进口商的账单达到171亿欧元(197亿美元)，而2020年同期为110亿欧元。

　　巴法表示，8个月期间，边境上每 TJ 支付的平均价格同比上涨 57.2%，至 4946.93 欧元。

　　仅在8月份，每TJ的价格就达到了6580.62欧元，相当于每千瓦时(kWh) 2.37美分，同比上涨了134%。

　　作为欧洲最大的经济体，德国主要通过管道从俄罗斯、挪威、荷兰、英国和丹麦进口天然气。

　　欧洲天然气基础设施集团GIE的网站显示，周一，德国天然气库存占可用存储能力的75%，而一年前这一比例为95%。

　　German Gas Imports Down 0.8% Year Over Year, Bill Up 55.5%

　　Germany imported 0.8% less natural gas in the first eight months of 2021, but its bill rose 55.5% compared with a year earlier as prices surged, data from trade statistics office BAFA showed on Wednesday.

　　Gas supply is tight which has sent prices spiraling in Europe and elsewhere and there is uncertainty over the timing of arrival of Russian supplies from the new Nord Stream 2 pipeline.

　　Traders of gas, power and carbon monitor gas imports because the supply and demand balance can change prices and traded volumes in those three wholesale markets.

　　Gas statistics correlate with coal, which competes with gas in the production of electricity, while also giving clues about demand for mandatory European carbon emissions permits.

　　BAFA's monthly figures showed Germany's imports in the first eight months of the year were 3,458,434 Terajoules (TJ) - equivalent to 98.3 billion cubic meters (bcm) - compared with 3,487,588 TJ a year earlier.

　　Importers' bills over the eight months came to 17.1 billion euros ($19.7 billion), versus 11.0 billion in the same period in 2020.

　　The average price paid per TJ on the border in the eight-month period was up 57.2% year-on-year at 4,946.93 euros, BAFA said.

　　In August alone, the price per TJ was 6,580.62 euros, equivalent to 2.37 cents per kilowatt hour (kWh), and up 134% year-on-year.

　　Germany, Europe's biggest economy, mainly imports gas from Russia, Norway, the Netherlands, Britain and Denmark via pipelines.

　　German gas stocks were at 75% of available storage capacity on Monday, European gas infrastructure group GIE's website showed, compared with 95% a year ago.
