據離岸工程網站7月29日消息 專注于開發英國北海南部氣田的石油天然氣公司IOG已與俄羅斯天然氣工業股份有限公司（GM&T）簽署了天然氣銷售協議。

　　IOG稱，該合同是在近幾個月有10多家競標者參與的競爭性收購過程之后簽訂。

　　根據該協議，IOG將在兩年內將Elgood和Southwark海上油田的天然氣出售給俄氣，這是該公司一期開發的一部分，Nailsworth和Elland油田為其二期開發的一部分。

　　天然氣將在日計劃市場出售，價格與NBP（英國交易天然氣基準）掛鉤。2014年2月，與英國石油天然氣營銷有限公司就另一個一期氣田Blythe簽訂了單獨的天然氣銷售協議。

　　IOG表示，在經過兩個月的持續生產后，該協議納入了實物天然氣套期保值的可能性，該公司打算將實物天然氣套期保值作為其整體風險管理計劃的一部分。

　　GM&T是全球最大天然氣生產商俄氣在倫敦的能源營銷和貿易子公司。

　　IOG首席執行官安德魯·霍基表示：“我們很高興對天然氣的承購權感興趣，這有助于為IOG爭取到有吸引力的條款。由于我們將把所有的天然氣輸送到Bacton終端綜合設施，這是一個相對靠近主要需求中心的重要英國天然氣樞紐，我們預計將從優惠的價格中獲益。我們期待著在未來幾年與GM&T建立良好的合作關系。”

　　Gazprom to Buy Gas from IOG's UK North Sea Fields

　　Oil and gas company IOG, focused on developing gas fields in the Southern North Sea, off the UK, has signed a gas sales agreement with Gazprom Marketing & Trading Limited ("GM&T").

　　The contract follows a competitive offtake process involving more than 10 bidders over recent months, IOG said.

　　Under the deal, IOG will, over a two-year period, sell gas to Gazorin from the Elgood and Southwark offshore fields, part of the Company's Phase 1 development, and the Nailsworth and Elland fields that form part of its Phase 2 development.

　　Gas will be sold on a day-ahead daily nomination basis at a price linked to the National Balancing Point (NBP, the UK traded gas benchmark). A separate gas sales agreement with BP Gas Marketing Limited was signed on in February 2014 for Blythe, the other Phase 1 field.

　　Following a two-month period to establish consistent production, the agreement incorporates the potential for physical gas hedging, which the company intends to undertake as part of its overall risk management program, IOG said.

　　GM&T is the London-based energy marketing and trading subsidiary of Gazprom, the world's largest gas producer.

　　Andrew Hockey, CEO of IOG, said:" We were pleased at the strong interest in offtake rights for our gas, which helped to secure attractive terms for IOG. As we will be delivering all of our gas into the Bacton terminal complex, an important UK gas hub relatively close to major demand centers, we expect to benefit from favorable pricing. We look forward to developing a good working relationship with GM&T over the coming years."
