中国石化新闻网讯 据今日石油1月12日消息称，2020年，印度的石油总需求出现20多年来的首次下降，原因是Covid-19大流行导致企业和工厂关闭，抑制了这个世界最大消费国之一的需求。 根据彭博(Bloomberg)对印度石油部石油规划与分析小组公布的初步数据的计算，石油产品(包括柴油、汽油和航空燃料)总需求同比下滑10.8%，这是自1999年以来首次出现年度萎缩。消费量也降至1.934亿吨，为五年低点。 这个亚洲第二大石油进口国在今年3月启动全球最严格的封锁措施之一后，其燃料需求暴跌70%。下降导致石化厂的原油加工和运营急剧减少。 严格的限制对印度经济造成了严重破坏，印度年度国内生产总值将出现1952年以来的最大收缩。 随着限制措施的放松，需求正在回升。政府的数据显示，尽管去年12月石油燃料月消费量同比下降约1.8%，但仍处于11个月高点。 由于私家车使用量增加，上月的汽油消费量同比增长9.3%，为2019年5月以来的最高水平。柴油需求同比下降2.8%。 曹海斌 摘译自 今日石油 原文如下： India’s annual oil usage falls for the first time in 21 years India’s overall petroleum demand in 2020 fell for the first time in more than two decades as the Covid-19 pandemic shuttered businesses and factories, crimping the appetite of one of the world’s biggest consumers. Demand for total petroleum products -- including diesel, gasoline and jet fuel -- slid 10.8 per cent from a year earlier, the first annual contraction in data going back to 1999, according to Bloomberg calculations of provisional figures published by the oil ministry’s Petroleum Planning & Analysis Cell. Consumption was also at a five-year low of 193.4 million tons. Fuel demand from Asia’s second-biggest oil importer collapsed by as much as 70 per cent after it embarked on one of the world’s most stringent lockdowns in March. The drop resulted in a sharp cutback in crude processing and operations at petrochemical plants. The strict restrictions ravaged the Indian economy, which is set for its biggest contraction in annual gross domestic product in records going back to 1952. Demand is picking up as restrictions are eased. While monthly consumption of petroleum fuels in December was about 1.8 per cent lower than a year earlier, it was still at an 11-month high, according to the government data. Gasoline consumption last month rose 9.3 per cent year-on-year, the highest since May 2019, on increased use of personal vehicles. Diesel demand was 2.8 per cent lower than a year earlier. |
