生意社05月27日讯
据普氏能源资讯5月24日新加坡报道，市场参与者24日在新加坡表示，中国对产自亚洲和大洋州的重质低硫原油不断下降的需求，再加上WTI原油和布伦特原油之间价差的缩小，可能促使部分澳大利亚供应商把他们的注意力转向北美洲的销售点。
区域贸易商指出，最近区域燃料油利润大幅下降趋势以及中国最近对能源进口和消费逃税的打击将很可能牵制许多中国买家。
一名北亚低硫原油贸易商说，燃料油裂解利润看起来非常差，而中国国内的燃料油裂解利润也不太好。
中国传统上一直是大部分澳大利亚重质低硫原油，例如Enfield原油、Vincent原油和Pyrenees原油的主要出口地。然而，贸易商说，澳大利亚供应商在过去几周里一直在本地区以外的地方寻找新的出口地，而美国西海岸和墨西哥湾的终端用户向澳大利亚供应商伸出了援助之手。

More Australian heavy sweet crudes could head to US
Singapore (Platts)--24 May 2016
China's faltering demand for heavy sweet crude produced in Asia and Oceania， coupled with the narrow WTI/Brent spread could prompt some of the Australian crude suppliers to shift their focus to outlets in North America， market participants said Tuesday.
Regional traders noted that the recent sharp downtrend in regional fuel oil margins as well as China's latest crackdown on energy import and consumption tax avoidance would likely keep many Chinese buyers at bay.
"Fuel oil cracks are looking very poor and [China's] domestic margins are in a bad shape，" a North Asian sweet crude trader said.
China has traditionally been the main outlet for most of the Australian heavy sweet crudes like Enfield， Vincent and Pyrenees. However， traders said the suppliers have been venturing outside of the region in recent weeks， with end-users in the US West Coast and Gulf Coast lending a helping hand.
