石油设备网讯 据今日油价网站5月10日消息 据路透社周五报道，印度信实工业公司援引两位了解该公司计划的业内人士的话称，从6月中旬开始，其贾姆纳格尔炼油厂将关闭一个66万桶/日的原油处理装置，用于计划维护。
该炼油厂主要向国内市场供应精炼石油产品。
早在一月份，信实工业在66万桶/日炼油厂的另一个原油装置进行了维护，并关停了四周。
信实工业公司网站的数据显示，其贾姆纳格尔工厂是世界上最大的炼油中心，处于经济特区的该炼油厂是世界第六大炼油厂，日处理原油58万桶。
贾姆纳格尔的第一个炼油厂建于1999年，装机容量为66万桶/日，向国内市场销售精炼石油产品。
经济特区的炼油厂于2008年扩建，使贾姆纳格尔综合设施成为世界上最大的石油加工中心。去年，信实工业将其出口型炼油厂的产能提高了30%，至70.4万桶/日。
上个月，《印度时报》报道，沙特阿拉伯石油巨头阿美石油公司正在认真讨论收购信实工业25%的炼油和石化业务。
近年来，沙特阿拉伯一直在亚洲寻求下游交易，这是石油出口国最宝贵的市场，旨在锁定未来对沙特阿拉伯原油的需求。印度是一个快速增长的需求中心，也是仅次于美国和中国的世界第三大石油消费国。
今年2月，沙特阿拉伯王储穆罕默德·本·萨尔曼访问印度期间，宣布计划在印度基础设施和能源行业投资1000亿美元，以巩固其在印度的地位。

World’s Largest Refinery Shuts Down Crude Unit For Up To A Month
India’s Reliance Industries will shut for up to four weeks a 330,000-bpd crude oil processing unit at its 660,000-bpd Jamnagar refinery, beginning in the middle of June for planned maintenance, Reuters reported on Friday, citing two industry sources with knowledge of the company’s plans.
The refinery predominantly supplies refined oil products to the domestic market.
Back in January, Reliance Industries carried out maintenance at the other crude unit at the 660,000-bpd refinery and closed it for four weeks.
Reliance’s Jamnagar site is the world’s largest refining hub, in which the refinery in the Special Economic Zone (SEZ) is the sixth largest in the world with a capacity to process 580,000 bpd of crude oil, according to Reliance Industries’ website.
The first refinery at the Jamnagar site was built in 1999 and has an installed capacity of 660,000 bpd, selling refined oil products on the domestic market.
The refinery at the SEZ was added in 2008 and made the Jamnagar complex the world’s largest oil processing hub. Last year, Reliance increased the capacity of its export-oriented refinery by 30 percent to 704,000 bpd.
Last month, The Times of India reported that Saudi Arabia’s oil giant Aramco is in “serious discussions” to buy up to 25 percent of the refining and petrochemicals businesses of Reliance Industries.
In recent years, Saudi Arabia has been pursuing downstream deals in Asia—the most prized market for oil exporting nations, aiming to lock in future demand for Saudi crude oil. India, for its part, is a fast-growing demand center and the world’s third-largest oil consumer after the U.S. and China.
During the visit of Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman to India in February, Saudi Arabia announced plans to invest US$100 billion in India’s infrastructure and energy industry as it seeks to strengthen its position in the country.
