据路透社1月11日报道称，英国政府在一份声明中称，首批液化天然气（LNG）货物已抵达直布罗陀，将用于英国领土新的液化天然气燃料发电站。
官员们表示，直布罗陀已经提供了地中海所有港口中最多的船用燃料，并打算利用新电站的一些基础设施开发液化天然气加注设施。
Refinitiv Eikon数据显示，这艘容量约为7,000立方米的Coral Methane油轮于1月9日晚抵达港口。
“未来几周，我们将继续测试和评估码头和发电站的所有系统，”环境，能源和气候变化部长Jon Cortes在一份声明中说。
关于船用燃料的严格新规正在迫使船东探索液化天然气作为一种更清洁的替代能源，直布罗陀等港口正在准备为航运业数十年来最大规模的改组提供升级的燃料补充设施。

First LNG shipment arrives in Gibraltar for new power plant
The first liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipment has arrived in Gibraltar for use in the British territory’s new LNG-fuelled power station, a government statement said.
Gibraltar already supplies the most marine fuel of any port in the Mediterranean and aims to develop LNG bunkering facilities, using some of the infrastructure that has been set up for the new power station, officials have said.
The tanker Coral Methane, with a capacity of around 7,000 cubic metres, arrived at the port “Over the weeks ahead, we will continue to test and evaluate all the systems in both the terminal and the power station,” Jon Cortes, Minister for the Environment, Energy and Climate Change, said in a statement.
