据今日石油网2022年7月16日布宜诺斯艾利斯报道,阿根廷政府几位高管7月15日表示,阿根廷的天然气生产商正着眼于向世界市场出口天然气,这是因为阿根廷的一个建设新天然气管道的项目正在进行中,这条天然气管道将允许阿根廷提高瓦卡姆尔塔页岩气田的天然气产量,为最终的液化天然气出口终端提供供应。
在EconoJournal新闻网站组织的天然气每日研讨会上,阿根廷第六大天然气生产商Pluspetrol的销售经理Adrián Burtnik说,出口液化天然气“将有助于将瓦卡姆尔塔页岩盆地的巨大天然气潜力货币化,因为它将足以供应当地市场和出口”。
阿根廷多年来一直寻求开发世界最大页岩远景区之一的瓦卡姆尔塔页岩盆地,以出口天然气。然而,自2018年以来的一场金融危机推迟了这一计划的进展。
事实上,根据阿根廷能源秘书处公布的最新统计数据,阿根廷5月份的天然气日总产量从去年同期的1.213亿立方米上升12.1%,达到1.36亿立方米,其中瓦卡姆尔塔页岩盆地和致密远景区的页岩气日产量增长39%,达到创纪录的7600万立方米。
这一增长使阿根廷天然气日总产量达到国内平均需求1.4亿立方米的水平,冬季的峰值为1.8亿立方米。这将推进阿根廷增加天然气出口的机会,目前阿根廷每天出口到巴西、智利和乌拉圭的天然气被限制在1000万立方米以内。

Argentina positioning for global gas supplier role
Argentina’s natural gas producers are setting their sights on exporting supplies to the world market as a project gets underway to build a new pipeline that will allow them to boost production from the Vaca Muerta shale play to supply an eventual LNG export terminal, several executives said July 15.
Exporting LNG “would help monetize the great potential of Vaca Muerta because it would be enough to supply the local market and export,” Adrián Burtnik, a sales manager at Pluspetrol, the country’s sixth-biggest gas producer, said at the Gas Day seminar organized by the EconoJournal news website.
Argentina has been seeking for years to develop Vaca Muerta, one of the world’s biggest shale plays, to export gas. A financial crisis since 2018, however, has delayed the advances beyond increasing output from the play. Indeed, the country’s total gas production rose 12.1% to 136 million cu m/d in May from 121.3 million cu m/d in the year-earlier month, led by a 39% increase to a record 76 million cu m/d in production from Vaca Muerta and tight plays, according to Energy Secretariat data.
The growth has taken total output to a level in line with the country’s average demand of 140 million cu m/d, with peaks of 180 million cu m/d in winter. This is boosting the chances of increasing exports, which are now limited to less than a total of 10 million cu m/d in deliveries to Brazil, Chile and Uruguay.
