據(jù)7月24日Oil Monster消息：印度6月原油生產(chǎn)步伐加快，至429萬桶/天，較5月份增長10.9%，原因是疫情引發(fā)的限制措施進(jìn)一步放松提振了燃料需求。

印度石油部數(shù)據(jù)顯示，煉油商原油日產(chǎn)量在4月創(chuàng)下近20年來最大降幅，但5月回升至387萬桶/天。6月燃料需求延續(xù)了4月份創(chuàng)下的13年低點(diǎn)，較上月增長11%。

數(shù)據(jù)表明，印度煉油商6月開工率約為總產(chǎn)能的85.4%。

該國最大的煉油企業(yè)印度石油公司的產(chǎn)能為97.3％。

國有煉油企業(yè)及其子公司的煉油產(chǎn)能約占該國500萬桶/天煉油產(chǎn)能的65%，但目前其裝機(jī)容量僅為88%。

全球最大煉油綜合設(shè)施的運(yùn)營商信實(shí)工業(yè)有限公司旗下煉油廠的產(chǎn)能約為83%。

印度石油部長達(dá)曼德拉·普拉丹上個(gè)月表示，除航空燃料外，9月至10月的燃油需求可能會恢復(fù)到正常水平。

但周三報(bào)告稱，由于疫情反彈又重新加強(qiáng)封鎖，該國煉油廠汽油和柴油銷售均在7月上半月出現(xiàn)下滑。

與此同時(shí)，原油產(chǎn)量與去年同期相比下降6％，為253萬噸（62萬桶/天）。天然氣產(chǎn)量下降11.9％，至23.2億立方米。

India’s Crude Processing Extends Recovery in June

India’s crude oil processing gathered pace in June, rising 10.9% from May to 4.29 million barrels per day, as further easing of coronavirus-led curbs lifted fuel demand.

Indian refiners’ crude processing posted its biggest drop in at least nearly two decades in April but rebounded to 3.87 million barrels per day (bpd) in May, data from the Petroleum Ministry showed.

Fuel demand in June extended its recovery from a 13-year low hit in April, rising 11% above the prior month.

Indian refiners operated at about 85.4% of their overall capacity in June, the data showed.

Indian Oil Corp, the country’s top refiner operated its plants at 97.3% capacity.

State refiners, which along with their subsidiaries account for about 65% of the country’s 5 million bpd refining capacity, are operating at 88% of their installed capacity.

Reliance Industries Ltd, operator of the world’s biggest refining complex, operated its refineries at about 83% capacity.

India oil minister Dharmendra Pradhan had said last month fuel demand except jet fuel was likely recover to normal levels by September-October.

But India reported a record jump in coronavirus infections on Wednesday taking its total number of cases to 1.24 million, while data showed state refiners’ petrol and diesel sales declined in the first half of July due to renewed lockdowns.

“Localised movement restrictions to control the spread (of COVID-19) is likely to keep the (fuel) demand recovery in check over the near term in India ... We expect demand to remain lower on a year-on-year basis until Q1 2021,” Barclays Commodities Research said in a note on Thursday.

Crude oil production meanwhile was down 6% at 2.53 million tonnes (620,000 barrels per day) compared with a year ago.

Natural gas output declined 11.9% to 2.32 billion cubic metres.
