石油设备网讯 据普氏能源资讯1月19日伦敦报道，国际能源署（IEA）在其最新一期月度石油市场报告中说，在去年第四季度达到创纪录新高以后，今年第一季度全球炼油厂原油加工量预计将日减10万桶。
IEA在报告中把全球炼油厂第一季度原油加工量将下降的原因归咎于炼油厂时下正在进行的维护作业。但在去年年底，全球炼油日产量达到了创纪录的8150万桶，“而不是看到通常的季节性放缓。”
报告称，美国去年12月份高运行炼油业务恢复到了飓风前的高水平，而中国的炼油厂12月份达到了有史以来的最高的季度水平。
报告补充说，全球12月份原油加工量“很有可能最终被确定为迄今为止原油加工量最高的月份”。

Refinery rates to drop in Q1 after hitting record in late 2017: IEA
Global refinery intake is expected to drop by 0.1 million b/d in the first quarter of 2018 after hitting a record in the last quarter of 2017, the International Energy Agency said in its latest monthly oil market report.
The agency attributed the Q1 throughout drop to maintenance work, which is starting to pick up. But at the end of last year global refining throughput reached record 81.5 million b/d, "instead of seeing the usual seasonal slowdown," the IEA said.
High runs refinery operations in the US, where they "returned to pre-hurricane highs in December" while China's refiners "ran at their highest ever quarterly level," the report said.
December throughput is "likely to finalise as the highest month yet," the report added.
