據(jù)道瓊斯倫敦7月28日消息,殼牌首席執(zhí)行長(zhǎng)范伯登周四稱,該公司正在推遲今年對(duì)路易斯安那州萊克查爾斯一個(gè)大型LNG出口設(shè)施作出最終投資決定,主要原因是目前的LNG供應(yīng)過剩局面以及油價(jià)下跌情況下該公司負(fù)擔(dān)該項(xiàng)目的能力。
這是殼牌推遲的第二個(gè)大型LNG項(xiàng)目。本月早些時(shí)候,殼牌表示,將推遲位于加拿大卡提瑪特的一個(gè)LNG出口項(xiàng)目的最終投資決定。
范伯登在一次電話會(huì)議上表示:“現(xiàn)在不是進(jìn)行大筆資本支出的時(shí)候,即使這些項(xiàng)目的基本面在它們的生命周期中仍看起來不錯(cuò)?!?

Shell Defers Decision on Louisiana LNG Investment
By Selina Williams
LONDON--Royal Dutch Shell PLC is deferring a final investment decision this year on a big facility to export liquefied natural gas plant from Lake Charles, Louisiana, citing a current oversupply of the fuel and affordability of the project amid lower oil prices, the company's chief executive said Thursday.
It is the second delay Shell has made to a big LNG project. Earlier this month the Anglo-Dutch oil giant said it was delaying FID on an LNG export project in Kitimat in Canada.
"This is not the moment to commit to large-scale capital outlays, even though the fundamentals of these projects in their life cycle still look good," Ben Van Beurden said on a conference call.
