In winter, with the increase of heating demand, China's LNG import volume hit a record high again in June 5438+065438+ 10, and with the increase of demand, the global natural gas price also skyrocketed.
China's domestic natural gas production in June was 5438+065438+ 10, which increased by 3% compared with the same period of last year, the highest since March. From a monthly perspective, natural gas producers are still unable to fill the gap between supply and demand and curb price inflation. In just one month, the domestic price of liquefied natural gas soared from 4,000 yuan per ton to more than 10,000 yuan.
The price of liquefied natural gas in the international market has also risen sharply. The spot price of LNG in Singapore rose to US$ 65,438+00.26/million British thermal units last week, the highest level since June 2065,438+05, almost double the 5,654,38+0,465,438+0 at the beginning of June.
As we all know, the economic growth makes the LNG supply and demand prosperous. With the strengthening of environmental protection supervision, the demand for natural gas has increased and the price has continued to rise. On the supply side, the price reduction of LNG plants in the early stage led to the decline of natural gas level, the decrease of manufacturers' shipments, and the gas restriction led to a certain increase in natural gas prices.
Summary: The heating season in the north has started in an all-round way, and the demand for natural gas has increased. Coupled with the northwest gas restriction, the domestic LNG supply is in short supply, which also pushes up the price of natural gas to some extent.
