7月美国对中国石油出口飙升139%

中国石化新闻网讯 据油价网8月26日报道，美国7月对中国原油出口较上年同期增长139%，因中国买家逢低买入，使美国成为亚洲关键市场的第五大石油供应国。

    据路透社报道，根据每吨原油7.33桶的换算系数，美国平均每天出口超过86.6万桶原油。这一增长推动了今年前7个月中国从美国的进口总额比2019年同期增长31.5%，达到480万吨，或平均每月约500万桶。

    中国7月份最大的原油供应国是俄罗斯，7月份俄罗斯向中国出口738万吨原油，同比增长30.1%。伊拉克排在第二位，取代沙特阿拉伯，7月份向中国出口5.788吨原油，同比增长35.7%。

    然而，沙特阿拉伯对中国这个关键市场的原油出口上个月下降逾23%，降至536万吨。排在第五的巴西，7月成为中国的第四大原油供应国，向中国出口约为459万吨，同比增长27.4%。

    美国对中国的石油出口可能会进一步增加。彭博社(Bloomberg)本月早些时候报道称，中国国有能源公司租用了可装载多达3,700万桶原油的油轮，用于9月份的运输。对中国来说，这将是一个创纪录的高点。

    U.S. Oil Exports To China Soar 139% In July

    U.S. crude oil exports to China grew by 139 percent on the year in July thanks to bargain hunting among Chinese buyers, making the U.S. the fifth-largest supplier of oil to the critical Chinese market.

    Reuters reports that the United States exported a daily average of over 866,000 barrels daily, based on a conversion factor of 7.33 barrels per 1 metric ton of crude. This increase boosted the total U.S. imports to China over the first seven months of the year by 31.5 percent on the respective period of 2019 to 4.8 million tons, or a monthly average of some 5 million barrels.

    China’s top supplier of crude in July was Russia, which shipped 7.38 million tons of crude to China in July, up by 30.1 percent on the year. Iraq came second, replacing Saudi Arabia and sending 5.788 million tons of crude to China in July, a 35.7-percent annual increase. Saudi Arabia’s shipments of crude to the key market, however, fell by more than 23 percent last month, to 5.36 million tons. The top five list was rounded out by Brazil, China’s fourth-largest oil supplier in July, with some 4.59 million tons, up by 27.4 percent on the year.

    U.S. oil exports to China are likely to see a further boost. Bloomberg reported earlier this month that Chinese state energy companies had chartered tankers that can carry as much as 37 million barrels of crude for September shipments. This would be a record-high for China.
