据经济时报8月4日消息：印度石油部副部长Rameswar Teli表示，印度国有炼油商将投资2万亿卢比(269.6亿美元)，到2025年将这个亚洲第三大经济体的炼油能力提高20%。

　　印度是全球第三大石油进口国和消费国，其炼油能力约为每年2.49亿吨，相当于每天约500万桶。Teli在一份书面回复中称，预计到2025年，炼油产能将攀升至每年2.98亿吨。

　　他说：“炼油行业已经实现了现代化，并通过本土和进口技术不断升级，以降低炼油成本”。

　　印度最大炼油商印度石油公司在最新年报中称，到2024/25年，该公司将把年炼油能力从目前的7005万吨提高到8755万吨，以满足日益增长的成品油需求。

　　国际能源署今年早些时候在一份报告中说，印度将成为未来20年能源需求增长的主要推动力，占全球增长的25%，并将在2030年超过欧盟，成为全球第三大能源消费国。

　　通过到2024/25年再增加310万吨，该公司每年320万吨的石化产能也几乎翻了一番。

　　Indian firms plan to invest $27 billion to boost refining capacity by 2025

　　India state refiners are set to invest 2 trillion rupees ($26.96 billion) to boost oil refining capacity by 20% in Asia's third-largest economy by 2025, junior oil minister, Rameswar Teli, told lawmakers on Wednesday.

　　India, the world's third-biggest oil importer and consumer has refining capacity of about 249 million tonnes a year, equivalent to about 5 million barrels per day (bpd). Refining capacity is expected to climb to 298 million tonnes a year by 2025, Teli said in a written reply.

　　"The refining industry has been modernized and upgraded continuously with the indigenous and imported technologies for refining cost reduction" and product upgrading, he said.

　　The country's top refiner, Indian Oil Corp, in its latest annual report said it would boost its annual oil refining capacity to 87.55 million tonnes by 2024/25 from the current 70.05 million tonnes to meet growing demand for petroleum products.

　　India will be the main driver of rising demand for energy over the next two decades, accounting for 25% of global growth, and is set to overtake the European Union as the world's third-biggest energy consumer by 2030, the International Energy Agency said in a report earlier this year.

　　It is also nearly doubling its 3.2 million tonnes a year petrochemical capacity by adding another 3.1 million tonnes by 2024/25.

　　In Asia, the spot price of LNG climbed above USD 15 per mmbtu.

　　Buyers in Europe have struggled to replenish tanks that are at the lowest for this time of year in a decade and Russia is limiting exports to the continent. Also, Brazilian imports surged to record levels as droughts added to the competition by curtailing power output from hydroelectric dams.
