據(jù)ICIS-MRC網(wǎng)站4月29日莫斯科報(bào)道，根據(jù)烴加工網(wǎng)信息顯示，托克（Trafigura）出售了首批石腦油，這是一種用于塑料的精煉石油產(chǎn)品，從生產(chǎn)到發(fā)貨的碳排放被抵消了。

　　此舉措反映了石油和天然氣公司越來(lái)越傾向于將其產(chǎn)品作為更清潔的產(chǎn)品進(jìn)行營(yíng)銷，并在能源轉(zhuǎn)型的加速過(guò)程中確保化石燃料行業(yè)的未來(lái)。托克在一份聲明中表示，已將這批貨物出售給巴西的布拉斯基姆（Braskem）。這批貨物上周從德克薩斯州科珀斯克里斯蒂(Corpus Christi)發(fā)運(yùn)，預(yù)計(jì)將抵達(dá)巴西阿拉托港(Port of Aratuo)。

　　這家全球大宗商品交易商表示，他們使用了當(dāng)時(shí)最節(jié)能的船只，航速也進(jìn)行了調(diào)整，以進(jìn)一步減少排放。這家總部位于日內(nèi)瓦的公司補(bǔ)充說(shuō)，這批貨物被印尼名為REDD+的基于自然的項(xiàng)目抵消，該項(xiàng)目由經(jīng)驗(yàn)證的碳標(biāo)準(zhǔn)進(jìn)行獨(dú)立驗(yàn)證。

　　REDD項(xiàng)目源于聯(lián)合國(guó)氣候談判，旨在減少森林砍伐和森林退化造成的排放。REDD+還包括可持續(xù)的森林管理、保護(hù)和增加森林碳儲(chǔ)量。

　　其競(jìng)爭(zhēng)對(duì)手維多集團(tuán)（Vitol）上個(gè)月開(kāi)始提供綠色液化天然氣(LNG)貨物，以此抵消從井口到交付過(guò)程中的排放。今年1月，西方石油公司(Occidental Petroleum)表示，已經(jīng)向印度出售了有史以來(lái)第一批100%碳中性的原油。

　　一些公司已經(jīng)開(kāi)始為他們所謂的清潔石油產(chǎn)品尋求更高的價(jià)格。托克沒(méi)有詳細(xì)說(shuō)明這批貨物相對(duì)于常規(guī)石腦油的成本，但表示這是向Braskem提供的一項(xiàng)服務(wù)。盡管碳信用額并不能減少一桶石油的污染，但其支持者表示，它們有助于為清潔能源項(xiàng)目提供資金，否則這些項(xiàng)目將無(wú)法盈利。

　　Trafigura sells first carbon-offset naphtha cargo

　　Trafigura sold the first cargo of naphtha, a refined oil product used in plastics, for which the carbon emissions from production to delivery were offset, said Hydrocarbonprocessing.

　　The move reflects a growing trend among oil and gas firms to market their products as cleaner and to secure a future for the fossil fuel industry amid an accelerating energy transition. Trafigura said in a statement it had sold the cargo, which was shipped last week from Corpus Christi, Texas and is due to arrive in the Brazilian Port of Aratuo, to Brazil's Braskem.

　　The global commodities trader said that it had used the most energy efficient vessel available at the time and the speed of the voyage was adjusted to reduce emissions further. The Geneva-based company added that the cargo was offset with nature-based projects in Indonesia known as REDD+, which are independently verified by the Verified Carbon Standard.

　　REDD projects emerged from the UN climate negotiations and aim to reduce emissions from deforestation and forest degradation. REDD+ goes beyond this to include sustainable forest management, conservation and increasing forest carbon stocks.

　　Rival trading firm Vitol began offering green liquefied natural gas (LNG) cargoes last month, whereby the offsets would mitigate emissions from wellhead to delivery. In January, Occidental Petroleum said it had sold the first ever 100% carbon-neutral shipment of crude to India.

　　Some companies have begun seeking a premium price for what they call cleaner petroleum products. Trafigura did not detail the costs of the cargo versus a regular naphtha shipment but said it was a service provided to Braskem. Although carbon credits do not reduce the pollution from a barrel of oil, their proponents say they help finance clean-energy efforts that otherwise would not be profitable.
