2005年,在华盛顿举行的一场关于美国能源未来的小组讨论会上,嘉宾们曾一致认为,到2020年,美国市场所需的天然气中,至少有15%需要用进口的液化天然气(LNG)来填补。而今天,整个北美已探明且可开采的天然气储量,足够至少两代人使用。仅仅十年后,北美就可以实现能源自给,而且还切实展现出向亚洲和欧洲出口的前景。之所以发生这么大的变化,原因在于非常规能源的丰富储量,如页岩气、煤层甲烷和致密油气藏。
At a panel discussion on the future of the US energy held in Washington in 2005, guests had all agreed that by 2020 at least 15% of the natural gas needed in the U.S. market will need to use imported liquefied natural gas (LNG) To fill. Today, the entire North American proven and recoverable natural gas reserves are sufficient for at least two generations. In just a decade, North America can be self-sufficient in energy, but it also shows its promise of exporting to Asia and Europe. The reason for such a big change is the rich reserves of unconventional energy such as shale gas, coal bed methane and tight oil and gas reservoirs.
