印度预计将成为世界最大LPG进口国

    中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社12月27日新加坡报道,由于印度国内推动用液化石油气(LPG)取代木材和动物粪便生火做饭促进消费,印度本月将超越中国成为全球最大的LPG进口国。     汤森路透Eikon的船运数据显示,12月份运往印度的LPG数量将达到240万吨,这将首次超过最大进口国中国230万吨的进口量。     在印度政府将能源带进数百万个依赖明火家庭计划的支持下,印度的LPG购买量从2015年初的每月仅仅100万吨激增到了240万吨。     美国多里安LPG公司首席财务官特德·杨格对路透社记者说:“印度LPG需求增长速度令人吃惊。2015年享受LPG补贴的家庭数为1.4亿个,而现在为1.81亿个,这个增长速度让人惊叹。”     总部设在美国的多里安LPG公司旗下有22艘运输船,是全球最大的LPG运输商之一。     李峻 编译自 路透社     原文如下:     India challenges China as world’s biggest LPG importer     India is set to surpass China as the biggest importer of liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) this month as a drive to replace wood and animal dung fires for cooking boosts consumption.
    Shipping data in Thomson Reuters Eikon shows LPG shipments to India will reach 2.4 MMt in December, pushing it ahead of top importer China, on 2.3 MMt, for the first time.
    India’s LPG purchases have surged from just 1 MMt a month in early 2015 on the back of a government program to bring energy to millions of poor households relying on open fires.
    “The growth in India is amazing. The fact that they have grown from 140 MM subsidized household connections in 2015 to 181 MM now is very impressive,” Ted Young, chief financial officer at Dorian LPG told Reuters.
    With a fleet of 22 tankers, US-based Dorian is one of the world’s biggest LPG shippers.
