Equinor提高其在亚洲市场参与度

    中国石化新闻网讯 据石油新闻2020年9月14日东京报道，由于挪威国家控股的能源巨头Equinor借助欧佩克+持续减产的机会获取尽可能多的市场份额。这家欧洲石油巨头正在亚洲石油市场提高其参与度，把其对该地区的原油销量增加了一倍。

    Equinor负责原油、产品和液体的高级副总裁莫莉?莫里斯是在第36届亚太石油虚拟年会开幕前发表上述讲话的。他表示：“过去两年，我们出口亚洲的轻质原油和中质原油的数量增加了一倍。”“我们现在是亚洲炼油厂的主要原油供应商。”

    莫里斯说：“从北海以及从诸如北美、巴西和西非那样的地方销售石油的Equinor,从其全球投资组合中向亚洲不断增加原油销量,今年迄今估计已向亚洲销售了大约2亿桶石油，高于其2019年的1.7亿桶——其中大部分是来自大西洋盆地。这个数字也远超其2017年对亚洲的全球原油交易量8500万桶。

    Equinor boosts market presence in Asia as oil sales double

    Norway's state-controlled Equinor is boosting its presence in the Asian oil market, having doubled its crude sales to the region, as the European major takes the opportunity to grab as much market share as possible amid the ongoing output cuts by OPEC+.

    "We have doubled our sales of light and medium crude to Asia over the last two years," Molly Morris, Equinor's senior vice president of crude, products and liquids, said ahead of the 36th Annual Asia Pacific Petroleum Virtual Conference. "We are a major supplier to the refineries in Asia."

    Equinor, which sells oil from the North Sea as well as locations like North America, Brazil and West Africa, is increasing its crude sales from its global portfolio to Asia, which is estimated to be around 200 million barrels in 2020, up from the 170 million barrels -- most of which was sourced from the Atlantic Basin -- in 2019, Morris said. This growth compares with its global crude trading volume of about 85 million barrels to Asia in 2017.
