石油设备网讯 据石化新闻2020年3月23日新加坡报道，业内消息人士表示，由于油价在疲软的基本面压力下暴跌，印尼国有的印尼国家石油公司（印尼国油）利用该地区的低价汽油已经调整了其4月份的汽油采购进口策略。
记者看到的招标文件显示，上周五晚些时候，该地区最大的汽油买家印尼国油发出了一份将在3月24日截止的进口汽油招标书。然而，印尼国油已决定在固定价格的基础上招标其所需的汽油货物，从而偏离了其传统的在浮动价格基础上的招标。
印尼国油通常购买辛烷值等于或低于92的汽油货物，其价格与普氏新加坡92 辛烷值汽油评估平均值或Argus新加坡92 辛烷值汽油评估平均值的一个月平均值存在差异。
一位新加坡交易商表示：“考虑到目前的市场形势，印尼国油可能会设法获得廉价的汽油货物。如果他们按浮动价格进口汽油，他们将在4月晚些时候面临任何价格急剧复苏的风险。”
印尼国油进口汽油的这一变化发生在汽车燃料价格暴跌之际。由于疫情的加速蔓延和原油价格暴跌，汽车燃料价格受到了沉重打击。

Indonesia's Pertamina switches import strategies amid cheap gasoline cargoes
Indonesia's state-owned Pertamina has adjusted its gasoline purchase strategies for April cargoes, taking advantage of cheap barrels in the region as prices buckle under the weight of weak fundamentals, industry sources told this week.
Late Friday, the region's largest buyer of gasoline issued a tender, closing March 24, seeking a total 1.2 million barrels of 92 RON gasoline in four separate parcels of various sizes for April, according to tender documents seen.
However, the company has decided to bid for cargoes on a fixed price basis, deviating from its traditional practice of bidding on a floating price basis.
Pertamina typically buys gasoline cargoes, with octane equal or below 92 RON, at a differential to either the whole month average of the Mean of Platts Singapore 92 RON gasoline assessments or Mean of Argus Singapore 92 RON gasoline assessments.
"They are likely trying to secure cheap cargoes given the current market situation. If they do a floating price, they will be exposed to any sharp recovery later in April," one Singapore-trader said.
The change comes amid plunging motor fuel prices, which has been hard hit by the accelerating spread of the coronavirus and falling crude values.
