据悉，9月18日在匹兹堡召开的第38届煤炭营销日年会上，普氏能源咨询旗下Bentek能源公司高级能源分析师Jeff Moore告诉与会者，创纪录水平的产量、发电领域需求和存储注入量将令2015年全球天然气需求创下历史最高水平。
Moore表示，尽管燃煤发电装置的退出已经帮助天然气在发电行业的需求强劲增长，但是天然气需求增长的真实原因是天然气价格持续低位。
Moore 表示，Henry Hub的天然气价格一直低于3美元/百万英热单位，这已经刺激燃气发电装置的快速增加。
Bentek能源公司的数据显示，今年以来天然气需求始终维持在近五年的最高水平，预测今年底前这种趋势将持续。
Moore表示，发电领域天然气需求接近于当前水平的只有2012年，当年5月Henry Hub 天然气价格曾跌至约2美元/百万英热单位的水平。

Low price, increased generation use means record year for natural gas: Bentek
Pittsburgh (Platts)--18 Sep 2015 1134 am EDT/1534 GMT
Record levels for production, power burn and storage injection will make 2015 a record year for natural gas, Jeff Moore, senior energy analyst at Platts unit Bentek Energy, told attendees Friday at the 38th annual Coal Marketing Days conference in Pittsburgh.
Moore said that while coal plant retirements have helped fuel an increase in natural gas generation, the real driver behind in the rise in demand is the commodity's continued low price.
With the Henry Hub price staying below $3/MMBtu, natural gas generation is deployed ahead of coal, Moore said.
Bentek data shows that natural gas demand has remained above five-year highs for the entire year and it predicts that trend will continue through the end of 2015.
Moore said the only time natural gas demand for power generation was near these levels was in 2012, the year the Henry Hub price dipped to about $2/MMBtu in May.
