中国石化新闻网讯 据WENews.com网站11月20日休斯敦报道,路透社资深经济学家约翰·肯普(John Kemp)日前在一份研究报告中说,美国的炼油厂时下正在努力满足国内和出口市场对馏出燃料油蓬勃发展的需求,这将使馏分油市场在2018年变得格外紧张。 肯普在报告中说,即使北半球今年的冬季只是一般的寒冷,但馏分油市场似乎将带着低于平均水平的库存和快速增长的需求进入2018年,这将使明年的价格和精炼利润率保持稳定。 肯普说,尽管美国的炼油厂产量达到了创纪录的水平,然而,把布伦特原油转变为美国取暖油的总炼油利润已从今年5月份每桶不到11美元的低点攀升到每桶大约19美元。 李峻 编译自 WENews.com 原文如下: Distillate Fuel Market to Tighten in 2018: Kemp U.S. refineries are struggling to meet booming demand for distillate fuel oil at home and in export markets which will leave the distillate market very tight in 2018.
Even if the northern hemisphere winter is only averagely cold, the distillate market looks set to enter 2018 with lower than average stocks and fast-growing demand, which should keep prices and refining margins firm. The gross refining margin for turning Brent into U.S. heating oil has climbed to almost $19 per barrel from a recent low of less than $11 in May, despite record U.S. refinery production of distillate.
