石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社3月13日休斯頓報道，馬來西亞國家石油公司（Petronas）的一位高級官員表示，該公司預計將于4月開始從其新的煉油 – 石油化工廠提供石油產品，該項目將于10月份實現全面商業化生產。 由于試運行仍在進行中，最初的產品還不符合商業規格，Petronas執行副總裁兼下游首席執行官Arif Mahmood在休斯頓舉行的CERAWeek能源 會議期間表示。 “我們認為該項目將成為補充該地區增長的必要條件，”他早些時候在會議上表示。 Arif稱，耗資270億美元的Pengerang綜合設施在五年內完工。Petronas和沙特阿美石油公司共同擁有日產量為30萬桶的煉油廠。 包括其在Pengerang煉油廠的股權計算在內，Petronas的煉油產能將達到每日70萬桶，而其石化產量將從目前的1270萬噸增長至每年1460萬噸，他說。預計這家石油化工廠將于3月底開工。 Arif表示，新煉油廠的燃料生產將平衡馬來西亞的汽油供需，并允許其從新煉油廠出口柴油。 他說，當國際海事組織（IMO）于2020年開始實施新的燃料法規時，該公司還準備對石油進行“更多混合”，以滿足托運人對低硫石油的需求。 “對于國際海事組織來說，我們將進行更多的混合，我們將看到航運業的發展方向。我們鼓勵人們改用液化天然氣，“Arif表示。 他預計船舶將從10月起開始尋找低硫燃料。 他說，Petronas將繼續在南非的Engen煉油廠生產高硫燃料油。 “我們會在一些市場找到需求，并進行混合，”Arif說，并補充說，Petronas還可以利用其在南蘇丹和乍得的重質低硫原油生產來混合燃料。 李方征 編譯自 路透社 原文如下： Petronas to start offering oil products from new refinery in April Malaysia’s state energy firm Petronas expects to start offering oil products from its new refining-petrochemical complex in April as the project moves toward full commercial production in October, a senior company official said. The initial products would not meet commercial specification yet as trial runs are still under way, Arif Mahmood, Petronas’ executive vice president and CEO of downstream, said on the sidelines of the CERAWeek energy conference in Houston. “We see the project as something that will be needed to complement growth in the region,” he told the conference earlier. The $27 billion Pengerang Integrated Complex was completed in five years, Arif said. Petronas and Saudi Aramco jointly own the refining complex which has a capacity of 300,000 barrels per day (bpd). Petronas’ refining capacity will reach 700,000 bpd after including its equity stake in the Pengerang complex, while its petrochemical production will grow to 14.6 million tonnes per year (tpy) from 12.7 million tpy currently, he said. The petrochemical complex is expected to start up by late March. Fuel production from the new refinery will balance Malaysia’s gasoline supply and demand, and will allow it to export diesel from the new refinery, Arif said. The company also is prepared to do “a lot more blending” of oil to meet demand for low-sulphur oil from shippers when new fuel regulations by the International Maritime Organization (IMO) start in 2020, he said. “For IMO, we’ll do a lot more blending and we’ll see where the shipping industry goes. We’re encouraging people to convert to LNG (liquefied natural gas),” Arif said. He expects ships to start looking for low-sulphur fuel from October. Petronas will continue to produce high-sulphur fuel oil at its Engen refinery in South Africa, he said. “We’ll find demand in some markets and we’ll blend,” Arif said, adding that Petronas could also tap its heavy sweet crude production in South Sudan and Chad to blend with fuels.
