俄罗斯的石油和天然气管道地图，会发现它们的石油和天然气管道几乎全部都向西延伸。 俄罗斯的经济命脉一直延伸到西方。过去，这对西 方来说是个问题，因为俄罗斯利用这种力量来勒索欧洲。而如今，这却成了俄罗斯致命的软肋。 在所有这些管道中，只有5条最终抵达俄罗 斯海港。其余所有管道都进入西方欧洲领土，面临着被制裁的情况。 管道部分穿过乌克兰领土，其余部分，例如泵站，也处于射程之内。 其中三条管道终点位于波罗的海圣彼得堡附近，两条通往黑海。乌克兰已成功击中其中两条。 在成功袭击乌斯季卢加码头几天后，乌克兰又 对图阿普谢的俄罗斯石油设施进行了袭击，乌克兰正在进行一场有针对性的行动，一边是专门打击俄罗斯国内的炼油厂，让俄罗斯国内的石 油无法变成成品的燃料油，另外一边的目的则是摧毁俄罗斯所有主要的石油和天然气港口，使它们无法进行任何的油轮出口作业。 这两类行 动方案目前导致俄罗斯国内陷入了巨大的困境中，一边是大量石油产出无法出口，而库存量巨大无法消化，必须关闭油井，一边是炼油厂因 为产能不够，生产不出急需的燃油来为民众提供生活必备物资，军队的装甲后勤维护也无法进行。 ...

揭秘英国打击俄罗斯幽灵油轮计划：一场全球能源暗战升级 俄罗斯对外情报局最新披露的文件显示，英国正秘密制定针对俄罗斯幽灵油轮舰队的打击方案。这份情报犹如一颗深水炸弹，将西方与俄罗斯之间持续两年 的能源暗战推向了新高潮。 换马甲的油轮舰队 在波罗的海的晨曦中，一支由70余艘老旧油轮组成的特殊船队正悄然穿行。这些平均船龄超过15年的海上老兵，通过不断更换船名、改挂小国船旗的换马甲 操作，成功躲过西方制裁雷达。正是这支被称为幽灵舰队的运输力量，让俄罗斯的石油出口在西方重重封锁下依然保持畅通——每天约有200万桶原油通过 它们运往全球，其中60%最终抵达亚洲港口。 制裁催生的海上巨无霸 英国外交部的制裁名单刚一出炉，这些游弋在海上的灰色身影立即成为众矢之的。一位不愿具名的英国外交官用军事术语形容：我们正在锁定那些为俄罗斯 输血的关键血管。这种强硬表态背后，是西方对制裁体系出现重大漏洞的焦虑——尽管G7国家设置了每桶60美元的价格上限，但通过混合油品、伪造文件 等手段，实际交易价格普遍在70-75美元区间浮动。 国际顶级大宗商品交易商托克集团的首席经济学家萨阿德·拉希姆，在今年新加坡亚太石油会议上首次向业界预警：这支因制 ...

President Trump is absolutely right. We're on it. We have reduced already massively the gas supply from Russia, completely gotten out of Russian coal and massively also reduced the oil supply.But there's still some coming to the European continent. So what do we do now. We put sanctions out to those ports where, for example, LNG is coming from Russia, and we want to put tariffs on oil supplies that are still coming to the European Union. So we are really getting after the last bits of oil and gas coming fro ...

2025年9月19日，欧盟委员会突然宣布一项重磅决定：自2027年1月1日起全面禁止进口俄罗斯液化天然气（LNG）。这项措施将被纳入对俄第19轮制裁方 案，较原计划整整提前了一年——按照2022年提出的RePowerEU能源转型计划，原本设定在2027年底才逐步淘汰俄气进口。 值得注意的是，这项禁令将直接影响欧盟15%的LNG供应。目前俄罗斯是欧盟第二大LNG供应国，仅次于美国。根据欧盟统计局数据，成员国每月为此支付 的金额高达5-7亿欧元。欧盟能源事务专员卡德里·西姆松在布鲁塞尔记者会上直言：我们必须切断俄罗斯战争机器的能源资金链，绝不允许能源继续成为政 治勒索的工具。 欧盟对俄能源制裁再升级：液化天然气禁令提前一年落地 不过禁令仍保留弹性条款：若俄乌冲突结束，制裁可能提前解除。但西姆松强调：欧洲能源版图正在重塑，未来不会存在任何来自俄罗斯的能源分子。目前 欧盟去俄化进程已取得阶段性成果：煤炭进口已于2025年初全面停止；石油禁令覆盖了除匈牙利、斯洛伐克外的所有成员国，这两个豁免国也需在2027年底 前提交退出方案。 值得关注的是，欧洲议会部分议员正推动将管道天然气也纳入提前禁运范围，但该提议未获委员会支持 ...

Core Viewpoint - The U.S. political landscape is currently embroiled in a debate over Russian energy exports, particularly in light of a letter from four senators to the Secretary of State and the Treasury Secretary, criticizing the Trump administration's handling of the situation [1][3]. Group 1: U.S. Government's Response - The letter specifically points out the government's lack of action regarding China's continued purchase of Russian liquefied natural gas (LNG), raising concerns about the effectiveness of U.S. sanctions [3]. - The Trump administration has not imposed new sanctions on Russian energy companies but instead increased import taxes by 25% on countries like India that purchase Russian oil, leading to domestic controversy [5]. - The senators' deadline for a response from the State Department and Treasury is a focal point, as it will determine whether the U.S. will adopt a more aggressive stance on Russian LNG exports [5]. Group 2: Implications for Global Energy Trade - The ongoing situation highlights the significant impact of global energy trade on international security, with Russian revenues from Arctic projects providing substantial support for its military actions [7]. - If the U.S. fails to effectively curb Russian energy exports, it risks diminishing its negotiating power and prolonging the conflict in Ukraine [9]. - The potential for U.S. sanctions to disrupt the global energy market raises concerns about economic stability, as energy price fluctuations affect the cost of living worldwide [7].
