Brazil Counting on Higher LNG Imports to Meet Energy Needs (1)

摘要

Brazil, a driver of the surging global demand for liquefied natural gas, could maintain that appetite for the next three years while it works to stoke domestic output of the super-chilled fuel.Imports should keep growing while the South American nation doubles its LNG receiving terminals to eight by 2030, Mines and Energy Minister Bento Albuquerque said Wednesday.“For the next two or three years, this will increase,” he said at the Adipec energy conference in Abu Dhabi. “On the other hand, we are increasing our production and, in five years, we willreduce our imports, and it will be enough for our markets.”
