石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯新加坡1月3日消息，市场消息人士本周表示，在租赁费长期下降的情况下，新加坡燃料油贸易商1月份已恢复使用陆上储油，此前该行业在2018年初基本退出。
据市场人士透露，自1月份以来，维多、托克在环球码头租赁了储罐，而雷普索尔则在Tankstore租赁了储罐。
由于高昂的成本和较低的燃油价格，燃料油贸易商在2018年上半年基本放弃了陆上储油罐。
2017年12月底，英国石油新加坡公司退出了陆上燃料油码头，而嘉能可则在去年4月底放弃了在赫利俄斯码头的存储。雷普索尔还于4月底终止了在Tankstore的仓储租赁合同，而维托尔新加坡分公司也于6月底终止了其在新加坡萨拉亚号油库的储油罐租赁合同。
市场消息称，2017年陆上油罐的费用为每月5美元/吨至6美元/吨；另外，新加坡燃料油交易商表示，随着更多储油罐被清空，相关费用在2018年中左右，降至每月3美元/吨至3.5美元/吨。
一位新加坡交易员表示：“在2019年，他们陆上储罐已有新的预算，因为他们认为这些费用不会低于3美元/吨，因为储罐运营商没有降低费用，而是把它们空出来了。”
市场消息称，2018年下半年的燃油溢价上涨，也促使交易员们重返陆上仓库。

Singapore fuel oil traders return to onshore storage in Jan amid lower fees Singapore fuel oil traders have returned to utilizing onshore storage in January amid a protracted fall in leasing fees, after largely exiting the sector in early 2018, market sources said this week. Vitol, Trafigura have leased tanks at Universal Terminal from January, while Repsol has leased the tanks at Tankstore, market sources said. Fuel oil traders largely gave up landed storage tanks in the first half of 2018 because of high costs and low bunker premiums. BP Singapore exited landed fuel oil terminals at end December 2017, while Glencore gave up its storage at Helios terminal at end April last year. Repsol also terminated its storage lease contract at Tankstore at end April, and Vitol Singapore its tank storage lease for fuel oil at Oiltanking Seraya in Singapore at end June.
The fees for onshore tanks were $5-$6/mt a month in 2017, market sources said. As more tank storage were emptied, the fees dropped to $3-$3.50/mt a month around mid-2018, fuel oil traders in Singapore said. “They have returned to landed tanks with a new budget [in 2019] as they think the fees will not go below $3/mt, as tank operators kept them rather empty [instead of lowering fees],” a Singapore-based trader said.
A rise in bunker premiums in H2 2018 has also prompted traders to return to landed storage, market sources said.
