据全球石油新闻网2019年11月6日休斯顿报道，来自有关媒体公布的统计数据显示，在钱尼尔能源公司开始从其位于德克萨斯州科珀斯克里斯蒂附近的终端出口液化天然气（LNG）近一年后，荷兰已经成为这个设施最大的进口国。
这一趋势进一步证明，欧洲扮演着承运美国货物、帮助市场实现再平衡的重要角色。从德州科珀斯克里斯蒂LNG终端进口LNG最多的10个国家中，有5个在欧洲。这些国家还从钱尼尔能源公司位于路易斯安那州萨宾帕斯的另一个出口设施进口了大量的LNG。
统计数据显示，截至本周三（6日），自2018年12月以来，从科珀斯克里斯蒂液化公司迄今已发运了70船LNG货物，共计2260亿立方英尺，其中10船LNG货物在荷兰登陆。阿根廷从德州终端接收的LNG货物数量位居第二，共7船，其次是西班牙6船，墨西哥和意大利各5船。截至周三，仍有9艘装载美国LNG的运输船航行在海上。
相对较低的天然气价格刺激了欧洲部分地区燃气发电的增长，包括西班牙和德国。这进而支持了该地区对LNG进口的强劲需求。

Netherlands tops list of importers from Cheniere LNG terminal in Texas
Almost a year after Cheniere Energy began exporting LNG from its terminal near Corpus Christi, Texas, the Netherlands has emerged as the biggest importer from the facility, data shows.
The trend is further evidence of the importance Europe is playing taking US cargoes and helping to rebalance the market.Of the top 10 countries that have imported the most LNG from the Texas facility, five are in Europe. Countries there also have been absorbing a meaningful amount of LNG from Cheniere's other export facility, at Sabine Pass in Louisiana.
As of Wednesday, 70 cargoes, with volumes totaling 226 Bcf of LNG, had been shipped to date since December 2018 from Corpus Christi Liquefaction, 10 of which landed in the Netherlands, data shows. Argentina has taken the second most number of e Texas facility, at seven, followed by Spain at 6 and Mexico and Italy each at 5. Nine cargoes remained on the water as of Wednesday.
Relatively low gas prices have spurred increased gas-fired power generation in parts of Europe, including Spain and Germany. That, in turn, has supported robust demand in the region for LNG imports.
