日本原油進(jìn)口量跌至54年低點(diǎn)

據(jù)原油新聞2020年7月31日東京報(bào)道，由于國(guó)內(nèi)煉油企業(yè)因新冠病毒疫情大流行導(dǎo)致國(guó)內(nèi)成品油需求大幅下降而紛紛削減原油加工量，日本6月份原油進(jìn)口量同比大幅下降31%，至每日191萬(wàn)桶，為54年來(lái)的最低水平。

日本經(jīng)濟(jì)產(chǎn)業(yè)省7月31日公布的初步統(tǒng)計(jì)數(shù)據(jù)顯示，由于國(guó)內(nèi)煉油企業(yè)把原油加工量同比減少了28%，至每日308萬(wàn)桶，日本6月份的原油進(jìn)口量也比5月份下降了16.3%，為1966年以來(lái)的最低水平。

不過(guò)，日本煉油企業(yè)和其它進(jìn)口商6月份增加了汽油和輕油等關(guān)鍵精制石油產(chǎn)品的進(jìn)口，因?yàn)樽?月25日解除緊急狀態(tài)以來(lái)，日本國(guó)內(nèi)有跡象顯示精制石油產(chǎn)品需求出現(xiàn)復(fù)蘇。

由于煉油企業(yè)開(kāi)工率降低，加上國(guó)內(nèi)車用燃料銷售環(huán)比出現(xiàn)復(fù)蘇，日本6月份連續(xù)第3個(gè)月成為汽油凈進(jìn)口國(guó)。

日本6月份平均每日進(jìn)口汽油7.6508萬(wàn)桶，比去年同期的3.6607萬(wàn)桶增加了一倍多，比今年5月份增加了44.1%。

Japan crude imports hit 54-year low on pandemic, non-Mideast oil squeezed out

Japan's crude imports plunged 31% year on year to 1.91 million b/d in June, the lowest for the month in 54 years, as refiners slashed their crude throughput because of the plunge in domestic oil-product demand caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

June crude imports, which were the lowest for the month since 1966, also dropped 16.3% from May as refiners cut their crude throughput by 28% year on year to 2.08 million b/d, according to preliminary data released July 31 by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry.

Japanese refiners and other importers, however, boosted imports of key refined products such as gasoline and gasoil in June on signs of a recovery in demand since the lifting of the state of emergency on May 25.

Japan was a net importer of gasoline for the third consecutive month in June due to low refinery run rates combined with the month-on-month recovery in domestic motor fuel sales.

Japan imported an average of 76,508 b/d of gasoline in June, more than double the 36,607 b/d a year earlier and up 44.1% from May.
