據(jù)8月24日消息稱，據(jù)Kallanish Energy報(bào)道，美國(guó)能源部已經(jīng)批準(zhǔn)了計(jì)劃中的阿拉斯加液化天然氣（LNG）項(xiàng)目，以出口液化天然氣。
上周四，該機(jī)構(gòu)批準(zhǔn)了這個(gè)價(jià)值387億美元的項(xiàng)目的最終出口許可證。
美國(guó)能源部已在2015年5月批準(zhǔn)了有條件出口許可證，等待聯(lián)邦能源監(jiān)管委員會(huì)的項(xiàng)目批準(zhǔn)。
該項(xiàng)目由阿拉斯加天然氣管道開(kāi)發(fā)公司開(kāi)發(fā)。
該項(xiàng)目旨在將阿拉斯加北坡的天然氣輸送到亞洲出口，并向該州境內(nèi)輸送天然氣。
該項(xiàng)目每年將生產(chǎn)2000萬(wàn)公噸液化天然氣。
該項(xiàng)目將包括一條807英里長(zhǎng)的管道，每天輸送39億立方英尺的天然氣，位于北坡普拉德霍灣的天然氣處理廠，以及位于阿拉斯加南部基奈半島的液化設(shè)施。
它還需要另外兩條管道，將生產(chǎn)裝置與天然氣處理廠連接起來(lái)。
阿拉斯加液化天然氣項(xiàng)目于6年前首次提出，是全球最大的液化天然氣項(xiàng)目之一。
自20世紀(jì)70年代末以來(lái)，該州一直在尋求開(kāi)發(fā)天然氣的方法，因?yàn)楫?dāng)?shù)貨](méi)有市場(chǎng)，也沒(méi)有發(fā)達(dá)的基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施將天然氣輸送到市場(chǎng)。
據(jù)估計(jì)，北坡普拉德霍灣和湯普森角總共蘊(yùn)藏著30萬(wàn)億立方英尺的天然氣。

DOE approves exports for Alaska LNG
The U.S. Energy Department has approved the planned Alaska LNG project to export liquefied natural gas (LNG), Kallanish Energy reports.
The agency last Thursday approved a final export license for the $38.7 billion project.
DOE had approved a conditional export permit in May 2015, pending project approval by the Fdederal Energy Regulatory Commission.
The project is being developed by the Alaska Gasline Development Company.
The project is designed to move natural gas from Alaska’s North Slope to Asia for export and to provide in-state deliveries of natural gas.
The project would produce 20 million metric tons of LNG per year.
It would include an 807-mile pipeline to move up to 3.9 billion cubic feet of natural gas per day, a gas-treatment plant in Prudhoe Bay on the North Slope and liquefaction facilities on the Kenai Peninsula in southern Alaska.
It would also require two additional pipelines connecting production units to the gas-treatment plant.
Alaska LNG, first proposed six years ago, is one of the biggest LNG projects in the world.
The state has been seeking a way to develop that gas since the late 1970s because there are no local markets and no developed infrastructure to get the gas to markets.
It is estimated that the North Slope’s Prudhoe Bay and Point Thompson together hold 30 trillion cubic feet of natural gas.
