中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社迪拜11月28日消息,沙特国家石油公司(沙特阿美)一位高管周一表示,公司旨在2030年前将化学品产量提高至当前的近三倍达到3400万吨/年。
沙特阿美公司下游业务负责人Abdulaziz al-Judaimi在迪拜召开的一次会议中发表演讲时表示:“我们在全球范围内的化工权益产能预计从当前的1200万吨/年增加到2030年时的3400万吨/年。”
同时沙特阿美公司在全球的炼油能力将从当前的逾500万桶/天扩大至800万桶至1000万桶/天。
发展石化业务是沙特今年宣布的“愿景2030”经济改革计划的一部分,沙特旨在通过该改革计划实现经济的多元化发展,降低对石油的依赖。
沙特阿美公司已经在整合旗下炼油厂和石化基础设施,因为公司要发展下游业务和扩大炼油产品的贸易。业务的整合将帮助沙特阿美实现油气资源的价值最大化,实现原料和化工产品的多样化,这对于公司实现业务多元化发展的计划是关键。

Saudi Aramco to almost triple chemicals output by 2030
11/28/2016
DUBAI (Reuters) -- State oil company Saudi Aramco aims to almost triple its chemicals production to 34 million mtpy by 2030, a senior company executive said on Monday.
"In chemicals, our equity capacity, across our global operations, is expected to grow from 12 million mtpy to 34 million over the same period," Abdulaziz al-Judaimi, the company's business line head for downstream, said in a speech at a conference in Dubai.
Over the same period Aramco's global refining capacity is set to rise to 8-10 million barrels per day (bpd) from more than 5 million bpd currently.
The company's refining capacity has grown as it has invested heavily to raise its oil production capacity to 12 million bpd.
Developing petrochemicals is part of the kingdom's Vision 2030 economic reform plan announced this year which aims to diversify the economy away from oil.
Aramco has been integrating its refineries with petrochemical infrastructure as it develops its downstream business and expands its trading of refined products.
The integration will help it to maximise value from its hydrocarbon base, diversify feedstock and chemical products, which is key to Aramco's plans to diversify its operations.
