据Neftegaz.RU网罗马1月11日消息 全球数据显示，意大利将在2018年至2022年间推动欧洲地下天然气储存（UGS）行业的增长，其贡献的UGS产能将超过其他任何国家，资本支出总计37亿美元。
该公司的报告称：“欧洲至2022年地下储气库行业展望——所有运营和计划存储站点终端的详细信息的容量和资本支出预测”显示，欧洲UGS产能预计将增加47计划和UGS站点公布，到2022年总工作气体容量(供应量)为6665亿立方英尺。
全球数据公司油气分析师Soorya Tejomoortula评论道：“意大利正在开发16个计划和宣布的UGS站点，以满足其季节变化的需求。该国计划到2025年用天然气替代煤炭发电，这将进一步推动中国的天然气需求。未来4年的资本支出总额为37亿美元。”
全球数据将英国定位为欧洲UGS容量增加第二高的国家。预计到2022年，该国将增加约127亿立方英尺。该国计划在2018 - 2022年期间投资38亿美元建设九个即将开工的项目。
就存储容量而言，在即将到来的UGS站点中，意大利的Cornegliano将在2022年以8300亿立方英尺的储量领先。就预测期间的新建资本支出而言，英国Gateway site将以9.42亿美元的Preesall site领先，意大利Cugno Le Macine I site将分别以8.42亿美元和6.85亿美元紧随其后。

Italy is expected to add around 271 bcf of UGS capacity industry in Europe.
Italy will drive the majority of the growth in the underground gas storage (UGS) industry in Europe between 2018 and 2022, contributing more UGS capacity than any other country, with a capital expenditure (capex) totaling to $3.7 billion, according to GlobalData.
The company’s report: 'Underground Gas Storage Industry Outlook in Europe to 2022 – Capacity and Capital Expenditure Forecasts with Details of All Operating and Planned Storage Sites Terminals' reveals that Europe’s UGS capacity is expected to add 47 planned and announced UGS sites, with a total working gas capacity of 666.5 billion cubic feet (bcf) by 2022.
Soorya Tejomoortula, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData, comments: "Italy is developing 16 planned and announced UGS sites to meet its season variations in demand. The country plans to replace coal with natural gas for power generation by 2025, which will further drive natural gas demand in the country. Capital expenditure (capex) totals $3.7 billion over the next 4 years."
GlobalData identifies the UK as the 2nd highest in Europe in terms of UGS capacity additions. The country is expected to add about 127 bcf by 2022. The country has planned investment of $3.8 billion to be spent on nine upcoming sites during the 2018 - 2022 period.
In terms of storage capacity, among the upcoming UGS sites, Cornegliano in Italy will lead with 83 bcf in 2022. In terms of new build capex spending during the forecast period, Gateway site in the UK will lead with $942 million Preesall site in the UK and Cugno Le Macine I site in Italy will follow with $842 million and $685 million, respectively.
