据天然气加工网站11月27日报道 亚洲液化天然气现货价格前一周上涨,受油价飙升、冬季开始可能变冷以及供暖需求增加推动。
业内人士表示,1月份交付至东北亚的液化天然气平均价格估计约为7.40美元/每百万英热单位,较前一周上涨1.00美元。
大多数亚洲液化天然气合同都以布伦特原油期货价格为基准,本周上涨6%,为至3月份以来的最高水平,因为交易员对各种冠状病毒疫苗开发导致的石油需求复苏持乐观态度。
Refinitiv Eikon的气象数据显示,未来两周,北京、上海和首尔的气温预计将低于平均水平,这将增加取暖用气需求。
咨询公司Energy Aspects的分析师表示,今年东北亚地区的供暖需求比往年提前。

GLOBAL LNG-Asian spot prices rise on oil surge and heating demand
Asian spot prices for LNG rose the preceding week, driven by a surge in oil prices and a potentially colder start to winter and higher heating demand.
The average LNG price for January delivery into northeast Asia
Brent oil futures, which the majority of Asian LNG contracts are priced against, rose 6% this week to the highest since March as traders were optimistic about oil demand recovering due to developments with various coronavirus vaccines.
Temperatures in Beijing, Shanghai and Seoul are expected to be lower than average over the next two weeks, weather data from Refinitiv Eikon showed, increasing gas demand for heating.
Analysts at consultancy Energy Aspects said heating demand started earlier than usual in northeast Asia this year.
