风险全球普拉克明液化天然气厂一期转入商业运营：首船货物交付壳牌
路易斯安那州的液化天然气出口商风险全球11月1日宣布，其普拉克明出口厂一期已完成调试并转入商业运营，开始按长期销售合同向客户供气。
能源巨头壳牌成为首个按长期合同接收普拉克明液化天然气的客户：装载首船商业货物的「马拉加·克努森」号液化天然气运输船已于11月1日凌晨3时26分启程。风险全球表示，普拉克明一期于10月31日完成调试，距该厂产出第一批液化天然气约22个月。
除壳牌外，一期长期合同客户还包括波兰奥伦公司（Orlen）、中国石化、中国海洋石油天然气电力集团与法国电力公司，上述客户预计将陆续按长期合同接收货物。风险全球首席执行官迈克·萨贝尔表示，一期转入商业运营历经53个月，是「我们团队不懈奉献的明证」，普拉克明厂的投产也将进一步提升美国墨西哥湾沿岸的液化天然气出口能力。

Venture Global's Plaquemines LNG Phase 1 Enters Commercial Operations, First Cargo Delivered to Shell
Louisiana LNG exporter Venture Global announced on November 1 that Phase 1 of its Plaquemines export plant has completed commissioning and entered commercial operations, beginning deliveries to customers under long-term sales contracts.
Shell is the first customer to receive Plaquemines LNG under a long-term contract: the LNG carrier Malaga Knutsen, loaded with the first commercial cargo, departed at 3:26 a.m. on November 1. Venture Global said Phase 1 completed commissioning on October 31, about 22 months after the plant produced its first LNG.
Besides Shell, Phase 1 long-term customers include Poland's Orlen, Sinopec, China National Offshore Oil Corporation's gas and power group and EDF, which are expected to take deliveries in turn under their long-term contracts. Venture Global CEO Mike Sabel said bringing Phase 1 into commercial operations over 53 months was "a testament to our team's relentless dedication," and that the plant will further lift LNG export capacity on the U.S. Gulf Coast.
