据油价网2023年7月20日报道，美国埃克森美孚公司的一位高管7月20日在接受日本经济新闻社(Nikkei)记者采访时表示，埃克森美孚公司的目标是到2030年前将其液化天然气（LNG）的年处理能力增加近一倍，达到4000万吨以上。
埃克森美孚公司负责液化天然气营销的副总裁安德鲁·巴里告诉日本经济新闻社记者，“我们非常看好天然气和液化天然气的增长机会。当你考虑到与一家公司的投资组合时，投资更多的液化天然气肯定是战略的一部分”。
目前，埃克森美孚公司估计每年处理大约2200万吨液化天然气。
液化天然气与美国二叠纪盆地、圭亚那海上广域和巴西盐下区块一样，是这个美国石油和天然气巨头近十年来的优先投资领域之一。埃克森美孚公司的投资计划包括，由于对高回报、低成本供应项目的投资，到2027年前，其上游盈利潜力将比2019年翻一番。埃克森美孚公司去年12月曾表示，到2027年前，超过70%的资本投资将用于二叠纪盆地、圭亚那海上、巴西盐下和全球液化天然气项目的战略开发。
埃克森美孚公司时下正在莫桑比克和巴布亚新几内亚开发液化天然气项目，而去年它与卡塔尔能源公司签署了一项协议，在合资企业中占25%的股份。这家合资企业将拥有整个北部气田East项目25%的股份，其中包括4条液化天然气生产线，年总产量为3200万吨。来自该项目的第一批液化天然气预计将在2026年投入使用，该项目是卡塔尔提高液化天然气出口能力的旗舰大型项目之一。
卡塔尔能源公司和埃克森美孚公司在美国也有一个联合项目，即得克萨斯州萨宾帕斯的戈尔登帕斯液化天然气终端，预计将于2024年启动。去年秋天，埃克森美孚公司和这家卡塔尔国有公司同意独立销售戈尔登帕斯终端的液化天然气产量，埃克森美孚公司将销售戈尔登帕斯终端30%的液化天然气产量。

Exxon Looks To Double Its LNG Portfolio By 2030
ExxonMobil aims to nearly double the volumes of liquefied natural gas it is handling to more than 40 million tons per year by 2030, a top executive at the U.S. supermajor has told Nikkei in an interview.
“We're very bullish about the growth opportunities in natural gas and LNG. When you think about that in the portfolio with a corporation, investing in more LNG is certainly part of the strategy,” Andrew Barry, vice president in charge of LNG marketing at Exxon, told the publication.
Currently, Exxon is estimated to handle around 22 million tons of LNG annually.
LNG is one of the oil and gas giant’s priority investment areas this decade, alongside the U.S. Permian Basin, Guyana, and Brazil. Exxon’s corporate plan through 2027 includes expectations that its upstream earnings potential is set to double by 2027 compared to 2019, resulting from investments in high-return, low-cost-of-supply projects. More than 70% of capital investments by 2027 will be deployed in strategic developments in the Permian, offshore Guyana, Brazil, and LNG projects around the world, Exxon said in December.
Exxon is developing LNG projects in Mozambique and Papua New Guinea, while it signed last year an agreement with QatarEnergy to take 25% in a joint venture, which in turn will own 25% of the entire North Field East project, including four LNG trains with a combined nameplate capacity of 32 million tons per year. First LNG from North Field East, one of Qatar’s flagship megaprojects to boost its LNG export capacity, is expected in 2026.
QatarEnergy and ExxonMobil also have a joint project in the United States, the Golden Pass LNG Terminal in Sabine Pass, Texas, which is expected to start up in 2024. Last autumn, Exxon and the Qatari state-owned firm agreed to independently market Golden Pass LNG volumes. ExxonMobil will market 30% of Golden Pass LNG volumes.
