中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社5月11日科威特城报道，科威特国有石油集团科威特石油公司（KPC）11日在科威特城表示，由于科威特寻求满足国内炎热夏季的能源需求，这个主要石油出口国将与荷兰皇家壳牌公司签署一项为期6年估计120亿美元（440亿第纳尔）的LNG供应协议。
目前尚不清楚的是，这项合同是否与就是科威特报纸日前报道的KPC和壳牌公司之间上个月达成的一项LNG供应协议。
KPC官员没有立即对此事发表评论。KPC在一份声明中说，科威特石油部长阿里·阿米尔10日在科威特城会见了来自壳牌公司的一个将签署这项合同的代表团。声明没有提供壳牌公司将提供的这种超冷天然气的数量。
KPC补充说，该公司希望燃烧LNG而不是求助柴油和原油，这是因为柴油和原油在燃烧中排放更多的有害气体。

Kuwait to sign $12bn LNG supply deal with Shell
Reuters
May 11,2014
Kuwait: Kuwait’s state oil group said on Sunday it would sign a six-year liquefied natural gas (LNG) supply deal with Royal Dutch Shell estimated at $12 billion (Dh44 billion) as the major oil exporter seeks to meet energy demands for the hot summer months.
It was not immediately clear if the contract was the same as an LNG supply deal between Kuwait Petroleum Corp and Shell reported last month in a Kuwaiti newspaper.
KPC officials were not immediately available for comment.
In a statement KPC said Oil Minister Ali Al Omair had received a delegation from Shell to sign the contract. It did not provide the volume of the super-cooled gas that would be supplied by Shell.
