赢利强劲促使美国炼油商提前转向生产夏季汽油

中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社纽约3月30日消息，市场人士表示，美国炼油商们已经比往年更早生产适合夏季的汽油产品，因为当前生产夏季汽油产品与生产春季汽油产品相比更加有利可图。

虽然生产夏季汽油产品比生产春季汽油产品的成本更高，但是6月和7月到期的汽油合约利润强劲，已经促使炼油商们比往常提前几周转向生产夏季汽油产品。

U.S. refiners switch to summer gasoline, eyeing better margins

U.S. refiners have switched to making summer-grade gasoline earlier than usual as profit margins to make the fuel have improved compared with those for the spring months, market sources said.

Summer-grade gasoline is more expensive to make than gasoline for the spring, but stronger margins for contracts expiring in June and July promoted refiners to switch to the summer grade a few weeks earlier than usual.
