???? 據天然氣加工倫敦報道，西班牙能源提供商雷普索爾公司3月12日表示，該公司首次使用碳補償信貸來補償客戶將用于驅動船舶的液化天然氣所產生的排放。

????可做交易的補償信貸旨在通過支持世界其他地方的植樹造林和可再生能源生產基地等項目，平衡排放造成的全球變暖效應。

????雷普索爾公司表示，在位于西班牙東南部的系統運營商Enagas擁有的一個終端，雷普索爾公司已向瑞典公司Furetank Rederi擁有的一艘150米長的化學品運輸船供應了430立方米的液化天然氣。

????為了補償船舶使用燃料時排放到大氣中的二氧化碳，雷普索爾公司表示，它已在與自然氣候解決方案相關的自愿碳市場上購買了碳排放信貸，這往往包括造林、土地管理和濕地保護。

????然而，與該行業的其他一些運營商不同，雷普索爾公司不會補償其燃料的生產和運輸，而是更愿意致力于減少自身業務的排放。

????其他采取不同方式的能源公司包括俄羅斯天然氣工業股份公司(Gazprom)，該公司本周首次通過一家公司的補償來覆蓋向歐洲生產和運輸液化天然氣的費用。

????雷普索爾公司發言人表示，該公司在此次交易中支付了補償費用，并正在評估未來如何處理這些費用。

????Repsol makes first delivery of carbon-compensated LNG

????Repsol for the first time has used carbon offset credits to compensate for emissions from LNG a customer will use to power a ship, the Spanish energy provider said.

????Tradeable offset credits aim to balance the planet-warming effects of emissions by supporting projects such as forestation and renewable energy generation sites elsewhere in the world.

????Repsol said it had supplied 430 cubic metres of LNG to a 150-metre long chemical tanker owned by Swedish firm Furetank Rederi at a terminal owned by system operator Enagas in southeastern Spain.

????To compensate for the carbon dioxide pumped into the atmosphere as the ship uses the fuel, Repsol said it had bought credits on the voluntary carbon market related to natural climate solutions, which tend to include forestation, land management and wetland conservation.

????However, unlike some other operators in the sector, Repsol will not offset its production and transport of the fuel, preferring to work on reducing emissions from its own operations.

????Other energy companies taking different approaches include Russia’s Gazprom, which used offsets to cover the production and transport of LNG to Europe in a company first this week.

????Repsol paid for the offsets in this transaction, and is evaluating how to handle the costs in the future, a spokesman said.
