尼日利亚NNPC发布罕见汽油招标

中国石化新闻网讯 据普氏能源资讯1月10日伦敦报道，对非洲最大的石油生产国尼日利亚来说，新年没有在一个吉祥的音符上开始，燃料短缺尤其是汽油短缺一直在持续。

由于尼日利亚一直在设法满足国内的需求，尼日利亚自去年12月初以来一直被卷入这场燃料危机中。

有迹象表明，尼日利亚的汽油短缺可能比最初预期的更为严重，尼日利亚国家石油公司（NNPC）日前已发布一次罕见的现货招标，在其现有进口量的基础上寻求148万吨在1月至4月交付的汽油。

尼日利亚每个月进口大约100万至125万吨汽油来满足国内每天大约3500万至4000万公升的需求。

Nigeria's gasoline crisis in focus as NNPC issues rare import tender

The new year has not begun on an auspicious note for Africa's largest oil producer, with fuel shortages, especially of gasoline, persisting.

Nigeria since early December has been embroiled with this fuel crisis as it struggles to meet domestic demand.

In a sign that the scarcity of gasoline in Nigeria could be more widespread than first expected, state-owned NNPC has issued a spot tender seeking 1,480,000 mt of gasoline from January to April, on top of the existing term volumes it imports.

Nigeria imports around 1 million-1.25 million mt/month of gasoline to meet national demand estimated at 35 million-40 million liters/d.
