-- 据路透社援引多位分析师和炼油行业人士的消息报道,由于亚洲原油进口量触及十年来的最低点,亚洲炼油商的炼油量预计将大幅下降。 报道称,伊朗的军事冲突迫使炼油商加工轻质原油,同时将柴油和航空煤油的日产量削减多达100万桶,导致这些关键市场的供应显著紧张。 路透社援引Kpler的数据称,亚洲4月份原油进口量预计将同比下降22%,至每日2040万桶,为2016年以来的最低水平。 尽管该地区各国积极收购滞留在海上的受制裁的俄罗斯和伊朗原油,但进口量仍出现下滑。 咨询公司Energy Aspects预计,亚洲原油加工量4月份将降至2840万桶/日,5月份将降至2870万桶/日,而3月份为3040万桶/日。 FGE NexantECA高级石油分析师Amir Abu Hassan告诉路透社,4月份的减产幅度将最大,因为替代供应将从下周开始陆续到位。 据研究公司Horizon Insight的数据显示,中国已限制燃料出口以保障国内供应,导致炼油厂加工量下降。4月中旬,炼油厂加工量为1340万桶/日,而2月份(冲突爆发前一周)的加工量为1540万桶/日。 该公司还指出,这些减产主要发生在中国的国有炼油厂,这些炼油厂提高了运输燃料的产量,从而减少了用于石化产品的石脑油产量。 据FGE的哈桑向路透社透露,预计韩国和日本的炼油厂开工率将在4月下旬至5月初降至65%,此前两国的开工率在70%至80%之间;而新加坡的开工率已从平均70%降至50%以下。 与此同时,据路透社援引Rystad Energy分析师尼廷·普拉卡什的话报道,自2月份以来,印度原油加工量已下降13%,至500万桶/日。 Vortexa向路透社分享的数据显示,由于霍尔木兹海峡关闭,约有1200万桶原油无法运往亚洲,其中800万桶为中等密度、高硫含量的原油,通常用于提高柴油产量。 炼油商此后转而使用来自美国的较轻质西德克萨斯中质原油(WTI)和中等含硫量的Mars原油,以及来自哈萨克斯坦和西非的类似原油,这些原油通常用于提高汽油和石脑油的产量。因此,这些地区正面临着柴油和航空煤油等中间馏分油的大量流失。 (市场动态新闻来源于与全球市场专业人士的对话。这些信息据信来自可靠来源,但可能包含传闻和推测。准确性无法保证。)
