【环球时报驻哈萨克斯坦特约记者 栖川】"中国在乌兹别克斯坦推进多个能源合作项目。"乌兹日报网2 日报道称，乌兹别克斯坦能源部与中国石油天然气集团公司（以下简称"中国石油"）日前签署合作备忘 录，双方将携手建设一座新的地下天然气储气库。据《环球时报》特约记者了解，该储气库选址定于卡 什卡达里亚州卡桑区的科拉巴伊尔气田，设计存储能力达15亿立方米。 报道称，地下储气库是天然气供应的重要组成部分，特别是在季节性需求波动大或突发供应中断的情况 下。目前，乌兹别克斯坦全国仅有加兹利和霍贾巴德两座地下储气库。面对日益增长的天然气需求，现 有的储气设施在容量和地域覆盖上均显不足。正在规划的地下储气库预计将在中国—中亚天然气管道运 输中发挥关键作用，有效避免区域性能源短缺，保障天然气稳定供应。 乌中间的能源合作已超越单纯的贸易，走向全产业链。据乌Daryo网站报道，乌能源部和中国石油代表 团日前就扩大能源合作、启动新战略项目进行讨论，内容涵盖多个关键领域，包括重点开发布哈拉地区 的凝析气田项目，共同推进中国-中亚天然气管道D线等关键项目，中方还将为乌兹别克斯坦培训油气 领域的专业人才。 乌兹别克斯坦《人民言论报》副总编肯扎耶 ...
