阿塞拜疆巴库，10月30日。澳大利亚伍德赛德能源公司周四表示，已与卡塔尔能源签署一项为期20年的协议，将从其位于美国的路易斯安那液化天然气项目每年供应最多300万吨液化天然气（LNG）。
BAKU, Azerbaijan, October 30. Australia's Woodside Energy has signed a 20-year agreement with QatarEnergy to supply up to 3 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas (LNG) per year from its Louisiana LNG Project in the United States, the company said on Thursday.
根据这份购销协议，伍德赛德将以船上交货（FOB）方式供应液化天然气，起始时间为路易斯安那液化天然气项目第二条生产线投产之时。在第三条生产线启动后，供应量将增至每年300万吨（Mtpa）。
Under the sale and purchase agreement, Woodside will supply LNG on a free-on-board basis, starting with the launch of Louisiana LNG's second production train. Volumes will increase to 3 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) following the start-up of the third train.
路易斯安那液化天然气项目正在路易斯安那州莱克查尔斯附近建设。该项目第一阶段包括三条生产线，合计产能为1650万吨/年，首批液化天然气目标定于2029年产出。
Louisiana LNG is under construction near Lake Charles, Louisiana. The project's first phase comprises three production trains with a combined capacity of 16.5 Mtpa, with first LNG targeted for 2029.
伍德赛德首席执行官兼董事总经理莉兹·韦斯科特表示，该协议体现了公司对自身战略的严谨执行。
Woodside CEO and Managing Director Liz Westcott said the agreement demonstrated the company's disciplined execution of its strategy.
她说：“这项具有里程碑意义的协议将伍德赛德具有竞争力的美国液化天然气项目与作为客户的卡塔尔能源——全球领先的能源公司之一——结合在一起。这是对路易斯安那液化天然气项目的强烈信心投票，也是构建该项目长期客户群的重要一步。”
"This landmark agreement brings together Woodside's competitive US LNG project with QatarEnergy as a customer, one of the world's leading energy companies. It is a strong vote of confidence in Louisiana LNG and represents a significant step in building the project's long-term customer base," she said.
韦斯科特还表示，该协议建立在此前宣布的与德国Uniper的供应协议基础之上。
Westcott added that the agreement builds on a previously announced supply deal with Germany's Uniper.
她说：“随着我们推动该项目迈向首批液化天然气产出，这些合同为路易斯安那液化天然气项目相当一部分产量提供了持续的收入确定性。”
"Together, these contracts provide sustained revenue certainty for a material portion of Louisiana LNG production as we progress the project towards first LNG," she said.
据该公司介绍，路易斯安那液化天然气项目是伍德赛德全球资产组合的重要组成部分，可提供地域多元化的供应，并增强其服务全球客户的能力。
According to the company, Louisiana LNG is an important part of Woodside's global portfolio, providing geographically diversified supply and strengthening its ability to serve customers worldwide.
该协议下供应的液化天然气将来自伍德赛德在HoldCo产量中所占的份额。
The LNG supplied under the agreement will come from Woodside's share of HoldCo volumes.
