据普氏能源资讯9月17日休斯敦报道，澳大利亚供应商伍德赛德能源公司周二在一份声明中表示，该公司已与Uniper（总部位于德国杜塞尔多夫的能源公司）签署了一份协议，从2021年开始，从伍德赛德的投资组合中供应为期13年的液化天然气。
伍德赛德首席执行官彼得·科尔曼在9月17-19日休斯顿举行的Gastech（石油天然气行业内最知名的国际盛事之一）会议间隙表示，该协议在供应来源和目的地、运输以及货物装载量方面具有灵活性，这将有助于提高双方的贸易和运输效率。
科尔曼表示:“这不仅关系到液化天然气的去向和我们可以从哪里得到供应，还关系到运输和货物的装载量。从定价的角度来看，这是一个与石油挂钩的标准定价公式，是我们喜闻乐见的。”
伍德赛德最初的供应量为50万吨/年，到2025年将增至100万吨/年左右。
在Gastech会议上签署的HOA（合作意向书）是建立在伍德赛德和Uniper之前的液化天然气供应安排的基础上的。
科尔曼表示：“这也是市场支持我们在西澳大利亚州扩建Pluto液化天然气设施计划的又一个强烈信号。在Pluto增加第二条液化天然气生产线，由斯卡伯勒海上气田开发提供天然气，是我们拟议的Burrup Hub（位于澳大利亚西北部的地区液化天然气生产中心）的一个关键因素。”
Uniper首席执行官Keith Martin表示:"公司致力于扩大其在大西洋和太平洋盆地的液化天然气贸易业务，伍德赛德是亚太地区领先的液化天然气生产商之一，此次与伍德赛德合作，进一步证明了我们在该地区投资组合的扩张。”
HOA仍然以谈判和执行一项液化天然气购销协议为条件，获得所有必要的批准，并从2025年起就供应问题作出关于斯卡伯勒开发项目的最终投资决定。

Woodside, Uniper sign flexible, long-term oil-linked LNG supply deal
Woodside Energy has signed a heads of agreement with Uniper for the supply of LNG from Woodside's portfolio for a period of 13 years starting in 2021, the Australian supplier said Tuesday in a statement.
The agreement is flexible with respect to the source and destination of supply, as well as shipping and the size of the cargoes, which would help enhance trading and shipping efficiencies on both sides, Woodside CEO Peter Coleman said on the sidelines of Gastech, held in Houston September 17-19.
"It is not just about where the LNG goes to, and where we can supply from, but equally in the shipping and the size of cargoes," Coleman said. "From a pricing point of view, it is a standard oil-linked pricing formula, which is what we like."
Woodside would initially supply up to 0.5 million mt/year, which would rise to about 1 million mt/year from 2025.
The HOA, which was signed at Gastech, builds on previous LNG supply arrangements between Woodside and Uniper.
"It is also another strong signal of market support for our plans to expand the Pluto LNG facility in Western Australia. The addition of a second LNG production train at Pluto, to be supplied with gas from the Scarborough offshore field development, is a key element of our proposed Burrup Hub," Coleman said.
"Uniper is committed to growing its LNG trading business in both the Atlantic and Pacific basins," CEO Keith Martin said. "This HOA with Woodside, one of Asia-Pacific's leading LNG producers, is a further demonstration of the expansion of our portfolio in the region."
The HOA remains conditional upon the negotiation and execution of a fully termed LNG sale and purchase agreement, obtaining all necessary approvals and, with respect to supply from 2025, a final investment decision on the Scarborough development.
