美国一些石油公司正在投资扩增国内炼油能力,据美国能源情报署分析,在今后5年内,炼油工业将增加超过100×10~4bbl/d的蒸馏能力。截至2008年5月底,美国炼油能力约为1 760×10~4 bbl/d,仍不能满足国内对燃料的需求。例如,近期数月内,每个月进口汽油调合组分和成品汽油平均约3 000×10~4 bbl。不过,今后15年内美国对汽油的需求预计会下降,这是由于政府颁布的法规要求提高轻负荷汽车的燃料效率和增加使用生物燃料的缘故。同时,对馏分油的需求将继续增长。
Some oil companies in the United States are investing in the expansion of domestic refining capacity. According to the US Energy Information Administration, the refining industry will increase the distillation capacity over 100 × 10 -4 bbl / d over the next five years. As of the end of May 2008, the refining capacity in the United States is about 1 760 × 10 ~ 4 bbl / d, which still can not meet the domestic demand for fuel. In recent months, for example, gasoline blending components and finished gasoline imported each month average about 3,000 × 10 -4 bbl. However, the U.S. demand for gasoline over the next 15 years is expected to decline as a result of government regulations that call for increased fuel efficiency and increased use of biofuels in light-duty vehicles. Meanwhile, the demand for distillate oil will continue to grow.
