據(jù)天然氣加工2021年7月7日?qǐng)?bào)道，美國(guó)能源信息署(EIA)在其最新一期的短期能源展望(STEO)報(bào)告中表示，今年美國(guó)的天然氣產(chǎn)量將增加，而需求量將下降。

　　EIA預(yù)計(jì)今年美國(guó)干氣日產(chǎn)量將從去年的958.1億立方英尺上升到969.9億立方英尺，2022年將升至996.3億立方英尺。 相比之下，2019年為930.6億立方英尺。

　　EIA在報(bào)告中還預(yù)計(jì)，今年美國(guó)天然氣日消費(fèi)量將從去年的832.5億立方英尺下降至823.2億立方英尺，然后在2022年升至828.7億立方英尺。 這與2019年851.5億立方英尺的創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄高位形成了鮮明對(duì)比。

　　與6月份STEO預(yù)測(cè)的921.8億立方英尺/天的產(chǎn)量和828.5億立方英尺/天的需求相比，7月份EIA對(duì)今年的天然氣產(chǎn)量預(yù)測(cè)更高，而對(duì)需求預(yù)測(cè)更低。

　　U.S. natural gas production to rise in 2021 as demand falls

　　U.S. natural gas production will increase in 2021 and demand will fall, the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) said in its Short Term Energy Outlook (STEO).

　　The EIA projected dry gas production will rise to 96.99 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) in 2021 from 95.81 bcfd in 2020 before rising to 99.63 bcfd in 2022. That compares with 93.06 bcfd in 2019.

　　The agency also projected gas consumption would fall to 82.32 bcfd in 2021 from 83.25 bcfd in 2020, and then rise to 82.87 bcfd in 2022. That compares with a record high of 85.15 bcfd in 2019.

　　The EIA's projections for 2021 in July were higher for supply and lower for demand than its June forecasts of 92.18 bcfd for supply and 82.85 bcfd for demand.
