德国储气库存降至创纪录低位：61.35%未达11月1日八成目标 行业协会促改革填充机制
德国天然气储存行业协会（INES）11月1日表示，德国必须检讨并完善储气库的填充机制：截至10月30日，德国储气库存为61.35%，远低于为11月1日设定的80%目标，处于创纪录低位，引发对冬季供应短缺的担忧；德国政府则表示不会出现供应瓶颈。
INES 总经理 Sebastian Heinermann 在声明中说，未能实现库存目标表明，未来几个冬季的库存水平必须得到更严格的保障。INES 已与天然气管网运营商协会（FNB Gas）共同准备了一份报告，为相关政治决策过程提供参考。
库存偏低的主要原因，是伊朗战争推高了天然气价格，使储气运营商在夏季补库在经济上不划算。德国政府上周五驳斥了意大利的指责——意方称德国为降低其天然气进口公司的成本、为这些公司的私有化做准备，而未把储气库填满。
German Gas Storage Falls to a Record Low of 61.35%, Missing the 80% November 1 Target, as the Industry Urges Reform of Filling Rules
Germany must review and improve the mechanism for filling its gas storage caverns, the gas storage industry association INES said on November 1, as storage levels in Europe's largest economy remained at a record low ahead of winter. As of October 30, storage stood at 61.35 percent, well below the 80 percent target Germany had set for November 1, raising fears of supply shortages, although Berlin has said there will be no bottlenecks.
INES managing director Sebastian Heinermann said in a statement that the failure to meet the target shows that storage levels for coming winters must be guaranteed more rigorously. INES has prepared a report together with the gas grid operator association FNB Gas to help inform the political process.
The main driver of the lower storage levels has been the Iran war and its impact on prices, which made filling caverns over the summer uneconomical. On Friday, Germany rejected accusations from Italy that it had failed to fill its gas stores ahead of winter in order to reduce costs for its gas import companies and prepare them for privatisation.
