在能源紧缺的年代,天然气生产与供应的蓬勃发展无疑是个好消息。繁盛的供应中国东部的海岸线上,六座大型液化天然气存储码头正在火热施工,到2015年,它们将使中国的液化天然气进口能力上升一倍有余。在同一片国土的另一端,崭新的输气管道直通土库曼斯坦,源源不断的天然气由此输入中国。在这两端之间,地质学家和工程师正在广袤土地上考查各种各样的气井,这些气井能为中国火热的生产局面再添一股动力。 In the era of energy shortage, natural gas production and supply of the booming development is undoubtedly good news. On the prosperous coastline of eastern China, six large liquefied natural gas storage piers are under construction and by 2015 they will more than double China’s LNG import capacity. At the other end of the same territory, a brand new gas pipeline runs directly through Turkmenistan, from which a steady stream of natural gas is imported into China. Between these ends, geologists and engineers are examining a wide variety of gas wells on vast expanses of land that add momentum to China’s fiery production situation.
