Saudi Aramco, PetroChina to Build 200,000 Barrel-a-Day Refinery in Yunnan
By Anthony DiPaola - Mar 20, 2011 11:15 PM GMT+0800
Saudi Aramco and China National Petroleum Corp. agreed to build a 200,000 barrel-a-day refinery in southern China as producers seek to meet rising fuel demand in the world’s fastest-growing major economy.
The state oil company of Saudi Arabia signed a memorandum of understanding on March 17 with CNPC unit PetroChina to build the facility in China’s Yunnan province, Aramco said in a statement on its website today. It’s the second refinery partnership Aramco has announced with a Chinese company in a week.
Aramco is participating in oil processing and storage projects in Asia to improve access to markets there amid the region’s increasing consumption of fuel and crude. China may increase refining capacity by one-third to more than 12 million barrels a day by 2015 to feed economic growth, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said on its website.
“Saudi Arabia is looking at demand dynamics,” John Sfakianakis, chief economist at Banque Saudi Fransi in Riyadh, said by e-mail today. “China, and Asia, is a very strategic and important demand driver. Aramco is aware that China and Asia are the markets that drive demand given macro fundamentals.”
Fuel demand is rising in China, spurred by economic and population expansion. Car sales in China gained 16.2 percent from a year earlier to 1.53 million units in January, according to the China Association of Automobile Manufacturers. The nation’s rural incomes rose the most in a quarter century last year, a statistics bureau report showed Jan. 20.
The planned 200,000 barrel-a-day refinery in China’s Yunnan will process Arabian crude into products including low-sulfur gasoline and diesel, Aramco said in the statement. Aramco will supply the refinery with crude through a long-term contract, and PetroChina will market the refined products.
Aramco didn’t give an exact location for the plant or say how much the facility would cost. The proposed refinery will be in a southwestern area of China linked by a $2 billion oil and natural gas pipeline project from Myanmar. Shipping oil through the pipeline from Myanmar would cut sailing times needed to reach the Chinese coast from the Persian Gulf.
CNPC, China’s largest oil company, said in September it had started building the Chinese section of the oil and gas pipelines linking the world’s largest energy consumer to Myanmar, formerly known as Burma. It also said it had begun building an oil refinery there. The September statement didn’t give the refinery’s capacity. The pipelines and refinery are set to be completed in 2013, CNPC said in September.
The pipeline would be able to supply 22 million metric tons of crude oil to Yunnan province per year, more than twice the 10 million-ton annual crude-processing capacity the Aramco- PetroChina refinery is set to have. That facility will be a “grassroots” plant, Aramco said, and it was unclear whether the facility announced today was the same as the one CNPC said it had started building in September.
‘Strategic Partners’
“This agreement is a significant step forward in our expanding relationship with CNPC and in our global downstream strategy,” Aramco Chief Executive Officer Khalid Al-Falih said in the statement. “We don’t consider ourselves simply sellers of oil to China, but rather strategic partners whose many relationships in that important country are founded on mutual respect, interdependence and mutual benefit.”
Aramco exported less crude oil to the U.S. and Europe as a percentage of total shipments in 2009, the last year for which data is available, as the worst recession in a half-century cut demand. Crude exports to Asia increased that year as a proportion of the total as China bought on average more than 1 million barrels of Saudi crude a day last year, Aramco said in its 2009 annual review released last June.
The announcement follows a separate agreement Aramco reached last week with China Petroleum and Chemical Corp., known as Sinopec, for construction of a fuel-processing plant at Yanbu on the Kingdom’s Red Sea coast. Aramco is expanding refining capacity at home to satisfy demand for gasoline and other products in Saudi Arabia.
Domestically, Aramco aims to integrate fuel processing with petrochemicals at its domestic refineries. The company is building a joint-venture refinery at Jubail on the Persian Gulf and another at Jazan in southwestern Saudi Arabia.
The Jubail venture with Total SA is set for completion in 2013, with the Yanbu refinery following in 2014 and Jazan one year later, Khalid Al-Buainain, Aramco’s senior vice president for downstream, said in Houston on March 8.

沙特石油公司，中石油在云南建设20万桶的炼油厂日
由安东尼DiPaola - 2011年3月20号下午11点15秒0800
沙特国家石油公司和中国石油天然气集团公司一致同意建立中国南部20万桶的日炼油作为生产者寻求以满足日益增长的燃料在世界上增长最快的主要经济体的需求。
沙特阿拉伯的国家石油公司签署了石油单位的谅解备忘录，中石油3月17日在中国建立的云南省设施，阿美石油公司表示，在其网站上今天的发言。这是第二个炼油厂的伙伴关系石油公司已与一中国公司在一周内公布。
阿美石油公司正在参加亚洲石油加工及贮藏工程，以改善市场准入中地区的增加，燃料和原油消费那里。中国可能会增加三分之一，到2015年炼油能力超过12万桶，每天喂经济增长，美国能源情报署在其网站上说。
“沙特阿拉伯是需求动态看，”约翰Sfakianakis，在Banque在利雅得沙特Fransi首席经济学家表示，通过e - mail今天。 “中国和亚洲，是一个非常战略和重要的需求驱动。阿美石油公司了解到，中国及亚洲的市场，拉动需求给予宏观基本面。“
燃料的需求正在上升，中国，受经济和人口的增长推动。在中国汽车销量从去年同期上涨百分之16.2至1.53万台，月，根据中国汽车工业协会。全国农村居民收入增长最四分之一世纪的最后一年，统计局报告显示，1月20日。
计划中的200,000桶的日在中国的云南炼油厂将加工成包括低硫汽油和柴油产品阿拉伯原油，阿美石油公司在声明中说。阿美石油公司将通过提供长期的合同与原油的炼油厂，将市场和中石油的炼油产品。
阿美石油公司没有说明确切地点为工厂或者说有多少设施的成本。建议的炼油厂将在中国西南部的由20亿美元的石油和天然气管道项目与缅甸地区。通过从缅甸运送石油管道将减少需要达到从波斯湾的中国沿海航行时间。
中石油，中国最大的石油公司，去年9月，已经开始建设石油和天然气，连接世界上最大的能源消费国对缅甸的管道中节，前身为缅甸闻名。它还说，它已经开始建立一个石油精炼厂那里。九月份的声明中没有透露该炼油厂的产能。管道和炼油厂被设定为在2013年完成，中石油去年9月。
这条管道将能提供2200万公吨原油云南省每年超过两倍的千万吨级原油年加工能力的石油公司，中石油炼油厂是一套有。该设施将是一个“草根”植物，阿美石油公司说，目前还不清楚今天宣布，该设施是为一个中石油表示，它已同9月开始建设。
的战略合作伙伴
“这项协议是我们与中石油和中扩大我们的全球下游战略关系的重要一步，”阿美石油公司首席执行官哈立德Falih在声明中说。 “我们不认为我们只是中国石油销售者，而是他的许多重要的国家关系，这是在相互尊重，相互依存，互惠互利的基础的战略伙伴。”
阿美石油公司减少原油出口到美国和欧洲的总出货量在2009年，最后一年的数据是可用的百分比，作为一个半世纪最严重的衰退削减需求。亚洲原油出口增加当年作为中国总量的比例平均为100多万购买沙特原油的桶去年的今天，石油公司在其2009年年度回顾说，去年六月公布。

在国内，石油公司的目标是整合在其国内炼厂加工石化燃料。该公司正在建设一个在沙特阿拉伯西南部的波斯湾和另一Jazan在朱拜勒合资炼油厂。
