据世界天然气8月9日消息，总部位于休斯顿的液化天然气出口商钱尼尔能源公司(Cheniere Energy)建立的钱尼尔能源合作伙伴公司(Cheniere Partners)公布，由于运营费用增加，第二季度净利润下降。

在截至2019年6月30日的三个月和六个月里，该合伙企业的净收入分别为2.32亿美元和6.17亿美元，而2018年同期的净收入为2.81亿美元和6.16亿美元。

与2018年同期相比，截止2019年6月30日的三个月净利润下降，主要是由于Sabine Pass液化项目增加了运营中的列车以及某些维护和相关活动，增加了总运营成本和支出。

这部分被收入中确认的液化天然气数量的增加所抵消，主要是由于增加了正在运行的列车。

截至2019年6月30日的6个月内，与2018年同期相比运营收入增加了5500万美元。

截至2019年6月30日的三个月中，Sabine Pass共出口了85批液化天然气货物，其中没有一批是调试货物。在截至2019年6月30日的6个月中，Sabine Pass 液化天然气工厂共出口了162批液化天然气货物，其中3批为调试货物。

Cheniere Partners posts second-quarter profit drop

Cheniere Partners, a partnership established by the Houston-based LNG exporter Cheniere Energy reported lower second-quarter net profit as operating expenses increased.

The partnership reported a net income of $232 million and $617 million, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2019, compared to net income of $281 million and $616 million for the comparable 2018 periods.

The decrease in net income for the three months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the comparable 2018 period was primarily due to increased total operating costs and expenses as a result of additional Trains in operation and certain maintenance and related activities at the Sabine Pass liquefaction project.

This was partially offset by increased volumes of LNG recognized in income primarily as a result of additional trains in operation.

Income from operations increased $55 million during the six months ended June 30, 2019, as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2018.

During the three months ended June 30, 2019, 85 LNG cargoes were exported from Sabine Pass, none of which were commissioning cargoes. During the six months ended June 30, 2019, 162 LNG cargoes were exported from the Sabine Pass LNG plant, of which three were commissioning cargoes.
