据道琼斯6月10日消息,根据基准的新加坡炼油利润数据显示,对于炼油厂而言,汽油已经代替柴油成为赢利能力最强的石油产品,这也是过去五年来首次出现这样的情况。BMI研究公司分析师表示,今年截至目前,新加坡汽油价格上涨幅度已经超过了柴油,自1月1日以来,汽油价格已经上涨13%,而柴油价格只上涨了7%。BMI表示:“这已经反映出了地区的炼油利润情况。”新加坡是亚洲最大的炼油和贸易中心,同时也拥有该地区最大的商业燃料存储能力。

Gasoline Eclipses Diesel in Profitability in Singapore Hub
[Dow Jones] Gasoline has eclipsed diesel as the most profitable petroleum product for an oil refinery for the first time in five years, according to the benchmark Singapore oil refining margin, a measure of the profitability of a refinery. In Singapore, the recovery in the price of gasoline has outpaced that of diesel year-to-date and, since January 1, gasoline prices have risen by 13%, compared with 7% for diesel, analysts at BMI Research said. "This has been reflected in the region's refining margins," BMI says. Singapore is Asia's largest oil refining and trading hub, and is home to the region's largest commercial fuel storage capacity.
