石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社墨西哥城8月14日消息，墨西哥新当选总统Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador表示，他的政府将投资逾110亿美元用于炼油扩能，以抑制日益增加的燃料进口量。
将于12月1日就任墨西哥总统的Lopez Obrador告诉记者，他的政府计划投资26亿美元对现有由墨西哥国家石油公司PEMEX拥有和运营的国内炼油厂进行现代化改造，同时将在未来三年时间内投资84亿美元新建一座炼油厂。
墨西哥是拉美最大的原油出口国之一，同时也是美国成品油最大的进口国。该国下一任总统已经誓言提升炼油能力。
墨国油当前在墨西哥国内拥有六座炼油厂，合计加工能力约160万桶/日，但是今年截止目前，这些炼油厂的开工率水平仅为约40%。同时受炼油厂计划和非计划停工的影响，近几个月来，墨西哥的汽油和柴油进口量已经大幅增加。

Mexico’s Lopez Obrador pledges more than $11B for refineries Mexican President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador said his administration will invest more than $11 billion to boost refining capacity in order to curb growing fuel imports. Lopez Obrador, who will take office on Dec. 1, told reporters his government plans to invest $2.6 billion to modernize existing domestic refineries owned and operated by national oil company Pemex and spend another $8.4 billion to build a new one within three years. Mexico is among Latin America’s largest crude exporters but is also the biggest importer of U.S. refined products. The country’s next president has pledged to lift refining capacity, which he says has declined due to corruption and neglect. Pemex, formally known as Petroleos Mexicanos, has six domestic refineries with a total processing capacity of some 1.6 million barrels per day (bpd), but the facilities are only operating at about 40 percent of capacity so far this year. Meanwhile, gasoline and diesel imports have sky-rocketed in recent months amid planned and unplanned refinery stoppages.
