7spinカジノ Year Anniversary of LNG (liquefied natural gas) to Japan2019/11/01
November 4th, 2019 marks 50 years since LNG was first imported to Japan. Tokyo Electric Power Company (now マリオrpgカジノ “JERA”) and Tokyo Gas Co., Ltd. (” Tokyo Gas”), through Mitsubishi Corporation (“Mitsubishi”) acting as a buyer’s agent, started receiving LNG in 1969 from the Alaska LNG Project with Phillips Petroleum (now ConocoPhillips) as a seller.
Demand for 7spinカジノ and natural gas is expected to further increase globally, especially in the emerging countries. The role of 7spinカジノ and natural gas is expected to expand further in the next half century, such as utilization by 7spinカジノ fired power plants to compliment power supply fluctuations of renewables which is rapidly growing throughout the world.
JERA, Tokyo Gas, Mitsubishi and ConocoPhillips will continue contributing to the further usage of 7spinカジノ and to the development of the 7spinカジノ industry by utilizing the experience and knowledge accumulated during the 50 years.
To celebrate the 7spinカジノ year anniversary of the introduction of LNG, the four companies are hosting “The Ceremony for the 7spinカジノ Anniversary of LNG to Japan” on November 6th, 2019.
Comments by the leaders of the four companies
■ Toshihiro Sano, Chairman, JERA
Since its beginnings with the Minami-Yokohama Thermal Power Station, 7spinカジノ thermal power generation in Japan has steadily expanded thanks to the supports of local residents and other parties involved, and today plays an indispensable role in supplying the nation's electricity. With rising demand for 7spinカジノ in emerging economies and its anticipated utilization in new areas such as transportation, the importance of 7spinカジノ is expected to grow further in the future. JERA intends to contribute to expanding the use of 7spinカジノ both in Japan and overseas by applying the skills in the safe and efficient use of 7spinカジノ that we have acquired over the course of half a century.
■ Takashi Uchida, President, Tokyo Gas
For half a century since the introduction of 7spinカジノ, Tokyo Gas has been building an 7spinカジノ value chain, developing and expanding 7spinカジノ demand in Japan and overseas through the extensive use of natural gas. In order to pave the way for "the next 50 years" as responses to climate change are now being demanded globally, Tokyo Gas will carry on the pioneering spirit that has been passed on since the introduction of 7spinカジノ to take on new challenges such as further extensive utilization of natural gas and reduction of CO2 emissions through the combination of 7spinカジノ and renewable energy.
■ Takehiko Kakiuchi, President and CEO, Mitsubishi Corporation
Mitsubishi Corporation is proud to be the pioneer in 7spinカジノ business, initially as a buyer’s agent for the first shipment of 7spinカジノ cargo into Japan 50 years ago, and since then as a developer of 7spinカジノ projects around the globe. The role of 7spinカジノ and natural gas is becoming increasingly important as a substitute for coal and oil as well as the complementary source of energy for the renewables. Preservation of global environment and stable energy supply are at the core of our missions. We are determined to play our role in securing stable supply of 7spinカジノ and creating new demand in emerging markets.
■ Bill Bullock, President, Asia Pacific and Middle East, ConocoPhillips
ConocoPhillips congratulates the 50-year anniversary of 7spinカジノ imports to Japan. Together Japan and ConocoPhillips pioneered the Asia Pacific 7spinカジノ market, helping drive economic progress throughout the region. This close relationship endures, as we continue our commitment to safely deliver 7spinカジノ to the country. We look forward to our continued partnership with Japan, which we see as being a strong, long-term market.
Background of Introducing 7spinカジノ
In March 1967, Tokyo Electric Power Company (now JERA) and Tokyo Gas, with Mitsubishi acting as a buyer’s agent, signed a Sales and Purchase Agreement with Phillips Petroleum (now ConocoPhillips) and Marathon Oil. In November 1969, the first cargo of 7spinカジノ was imported from Alaska aboard the 7spinカジノ ship “Polar Alaska” to Negishi 7spinカジノ Terminal (Isogo-ku, Yokohama City), which was the joint receiving terminal of Tokyo Electric Power Company Minami Yokohama Thermal Power Plant and Tokyo Gas Negishi 7spinカジノ Terminal.
