石油设备网讯 据普氏能源资讯8月5日报道,标普全球周一的月度调查显示,安哥拉7月份超过巴西和俄罗斯,成为中国独立炼油厂最大的原油供应国,中国从该国的进口量达184万吨。
当月安哥拉进口增长18.8%,同比增长89.8%。上个月,9家独立炼油厂从安哥拉进口了9种原油:品种名称分别为 Cabinda、Mondo、Saturno(7月从安哥拉进口量的前三位)、Sangos、Dussafu、Mostarda、Dalia、Kissanje和Plutonio。其中,Mostarda品种首次进入山东,由金城石化进口13.2万吨。Mostarda是安哥拉的一种新型原油,API为28.2,含硫量为1.08%左右。与此同时,上月从沙特阿拉伯的进口量约为108万吨,而2018年7月为零。
随着恒力石化(大连)炼油厂和浙江石化的投产,来自沙特阿拉伯以及阿曼、伊拉克等中东国家的石油进口很可能会继续增长。
马来西亚石油的进口量排在第五位,约为79.1万吨,较上月下降11.9%。从马来西亚进口的原油大多为混合级,中国化工(ChemChina)和弘润石化(Hongrun Petrochemical)分别进口了Nemina和其他混合级。来自前五名国家的进口总额约占当月进口总额的62.4%。
普氏能源咨询的调查涵盖了38家有配额的炼油厂和其他没有配额的炼油厂的原油进口情况。这些炼油厂主要通过山东省的港口进口原油,此外还从天津、舟山和大连等地进口原油。
截至7月初,这些炼油企业在2019年共获得1.2332亿吨的配额,占独立炼油企业总配额的84%,其中包括两批补充配额。只有当月卸载的货物(包括前几个月抵达的货物)才被计入当月进口。
尽管来自俄罗斯的原油总量有所下降,但ESPO blend仍是7月份产量最高的,13批原油中有130万吨来自ESPO blend,不过当月下降了41.3%。
据炼油厂消息人士透露,上月,这些原有被独立炼油厂加工,主要原因是相对较高的成品油产量,和更为强劲的需求。这13批ESPO原油是由6家独立炼油厂进口的,最大买家利津石化(Lijin Petrochemical)和华联石化(Hualian Petrochemical)各进口了3批。阿拉伯中质原油(Arabian Medium crude)排在第二位,为81万吨左右,全部由恒力石化(Hengli Petrochemical)购买,油价当月上涨7.3%。
本月Basrah轻质原油进口增长149.6%,至67.4万吨,阿曼原油进口增长84.7%,至75.9万吨。
天弘化工7月从韩国光阳港进口了两批4.2万吨的来自美国的ANS原油。这不是这家炼油厂第一次进口美国原油。今年6月,该公司收到了三批约14.1万吨美国ANS原油,此前,两批3.5万吨的美国Eagle Ford原油于5月运抵该公司。包括董家口港在内,7月份,青岛原有进口量同比下降1.6%,至437万吨,占进口总量的42%。随着恒力近几个月来不断增加原油进口,通过青岛进口的原油比例已从今年早些时候的50%有所下降。这种情况可能会继续下去,预计浙江未来几个月的进口将更加频繁。
山东港口进口增长111.8%,至171万吨。日照、龙口、莱州、东营等港口进口环比下降。大连长兴岛港口排在第三,进口148万吨,同比增长8.5%。

Angola emerges as top crude supplier to China's independent refineries in July
Angola was the top crude supplier to China's independent refineries in July, overtaking Brazil and Russia, with imports at 1.84 million mt, S&P Global Platts' monthly survey showed Monday.
Angolan imports were up 18.8% on the month, and 89.8% higher from a year earlier.
Last month, nine independent refineries imported nine crude grades from Angola. Cabinda, Mondo and Saturno were the top three grades imported from Angola last month, with the rest being Sangos, Dussafu, Mostarda, Dalia, Kissanje and Plutonio.
Among those grades, Mostarda arrived in Shandong for the first time, with 132,000 mt imported by Jincheng Petrochemical. Mostarda is a new Angolan crude grade with an API of 28.2 and sulfur content of around 1.08%.
Meanwhile, imports from Saudi Arabia were at around 1.08 million mt last month, compared with nil in July 2018.
With the startup of Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Refinery and Zhejiang Petrochemical, imports from Saudi Arabia, and other Middle East countries like Oman and Iraq, will likely continue growing.
Malaysia came in at fifth place, with around 791,000 mt, down 11.9% on the month.
Crudes imported from Malaysia were mostly blended grades, with Nemina brought in by ChemChina and other blended ones by Hongrun Petrochemical.
Total imports from the top five countries accounted for about 62.4% of the total imports in the month.
Platts' survey covers barrels imported by 38 refineries with quotas, and others without quotas, through ports mostly in Shandong province, as well as Tianjin, Zhoushan and Dalian for the sector.
This year, these refiners were awarded a combined quota of 123.32 million mt till early July, accounting for 84% of the county's total allocation for independent refineries, including two batches and supplemental volumes.
only cargoes discharged over the month -- including those that arrived in previous months -- were counted as imports for the month.
Despite the drop in the overall volume from Russia, ESPO blend remained the top crude in July, with 1.3 million mt arriving in 13 cargoes, though down 41.3% on the month.
They were imported for independent refineries last month, due mainly to the relatively higher yields of gasoil, the demand of which was relatively firmer, according to refinery sources.
The 13 cargoes of ESPO crudes were imported by six independent refineries, with top buyers Lijin Petrochemical and Hualian Petrochemical each taking three cargoes.
Arabian Medium crude came in at second place at around 810,000 mt -- all by Hengli Petrochemical -- up 7.3% on the month.
Other grades from the Middle East also increased sharply.
imports of Basrah Light increased by 149.6% on the month to around 674,000 mt, while Oman crude imports rose 84.7% on the month to 759,000 mt.
Tianhong Chemical last month imported two 42,000-mt cargoes of ANS crude of US origin that were loaded from Gwangyang port in South Korea.
This was not the first time the refinery imported US crude. It received around 141,000 mt of US ANS crude in three cargoes in June, prior to which two 35,000-mt cargoes of Eagle Ford crude of US origin arrived in May.
imports via Qingdao port, with Dongjiakou port included, edged lower by 1.6% on the month to 4.37 million mt in July, accounting for 42% of the total.
With Hengli ramping up crude imports in recent months, the share of crude imported via Qingdao port has fallen from 50% earlier in the year.
This is likely to continue with Zhejiang expected to import more regularly in the coming months.
Regarding imports via ports in Shandong, total imports via Yantai ports increased by 111.8% to 1.71 million mt. imports via other ports -- Rizhao, Longkou, Laizhou and Dongying -- all fell month on month.
Changxing Island port of Dalian came in third with 1.48 million mt of imports, up 8.5% on the month.
