越南煉油廠加工第一批索科爾原油

據(jù)路透社8月10日消息稱，據(jù)路透社報道，越南Dung Quat煉油廠運營商平山煉油和化工公司周一表示，該煉油廠已經(jīng)在試驗基礎(chǔ)上加工了第一批俄羅斯索科爾原油，以替代國內(nèi)不斷下降的巴赫原油產(chǎn)量。

平山公司在一份聲明中說，這家13萬桶/天的煉油廠上個月進(jìn)口了超過7.1萬桶索科爾原油，用于與其他類型的原油混合進(jìn)行試運行，并補(bǔ)充說索科爾占混合油的20％，巴赫原油占29％。

平山公司說，索科爾原油的加工“是Dung Quat煉油廠努力使其原油來源多樣化的一個重要里程碑”。

加工結(jié)果表明，巴赫霍原油在未來是可以被替代的。

這家煉油廠位于越南中部省份廣義省，2009年開始運營，其設(shè)計目的是使用越南近海巴赫油田的原油。

不過，近年來該油田的產(chǎn)量一直在下降，促使這家煉油廠的所有者越南國家石油公司(PetroVietnam)尋求進(jìn)口，并計劃升級設(shè)施。

去年，Dung Quat加工了第一批WTI和Bonny輕質(zhì)原油。

越南國家石油公司說，越南Dung Quat今年將進(jìn)口800萬至1000萬桶這兩種類型的原油。

這家煉油廠將于下周停產(chǎn)維修，直至10月初。

Dung Quat refinery processes first batch of Sokol crude

As reported by Reuters, Vietnam’s Dung Quat oil refinery has processed its first batch of Russian Sokol crude oil on a trial basis, as it seeks a replacement for shrinking domestic Bach Ho output, its operator Binh Son Refining and Petrochemical said on Monday.

The 130 000 bpd refinery imported more than 71 000 bbl of Sokol crude oil last month to mix with other types of crude oil for the test run, Binh Son said in a statement, adding that Sokol accounted for 20% of the mix and Bach Ho crude 29%.

The processing of Sokol crude oil “is an important milestone in Dung Quat refinery’s efforts to diversify its crude oil sources,” Binh Son said.

“The processing result has shown that Bach Ho crude oil can be replaced in the future.”

The refinery in the central province of Quang Ngai, which became operational in 2009, was designed to use crude oil from the Bach Ho field offshore Vietnam.

Output from that field has been shrinking in recent years, however, prompting the owner of the refinery, state-run PetroVietnam, to look for imports and plan to upgrade the facility.

Last year, Dung Quat processed its first batch of WTI and Bonny Light crude oil.

PetroVietnam said Dung Quat would import 8 million to 10 million bbl of these two types of crude this year.

The refinery will shut down next week for maintenance until early October.
