石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯7月14日伦敦报道，国际能源署（IEA）在周四发布的其月度石油市场报告中表示，沙特阿拉伯4月份的残余燃料油日消耗量大幅增加到了62.5万桶，这是2016年10月以来的最高日消耗量，从而顶住了全球对这种产品需求下降的总趋势。 IEA在报告中说：“尽管沙特阿拉伯越来越希望将国内发电部门从原油转向天然气，但是残余燃料油已变得越来越重要”。 报告补充说：“事实上，由于国际海事组织要求改变船用燃料的规格，沙特阿拉伯使用残余燃料油可能会强劲增长。” 沙特阿拉伯是燃料油市场上的一个亮点，在很大程度上，残余燃料油市场的需求正在减弱。根据IEA的最新统计数据，尽管总体上这种石油产品需求强劲，但全球大部分地区的残余燃料油的需求有所下降，尤其是在印度、日本、韩国和俄罗斯。 李峻 编译自 普氏能源资讯 原文如下： Saudi Arabia bucking general trend of falling fuel oil demand: IEA Saudi Arabia’s consumption of residual fuel oil increased sharply in April to 625,000 b/d, its highest since October 2016 and bucking a general trend of falling demand for the product globally, the International Energy Agency said in its monthly oil market report released Thursday.
“Although Saudi Arabia increasingly desires to move its domestic power sector away from crude oil towards natural gas, residual fuel oil has become increasingly important,” the IEA report said.
“Indeed, [Saudi] use of fuel oil may grow strongly due to the International Maritime Organization-mandated changes in marine fuel specifications,” it added.
Saudi Arabia is a bright spot for a fuel oil market that is largely seeing waning demand. Most global regions saw a drop in fuel oil demand, in particular India, Japan, Korea and Russia, despite overall stronger oil product demand, according to the IEA.
