據(jù)經(jīng)濟(jì)時(shí)報(bào)6月16日消息：印度石油部長(zhǎng)達(dá)曼德拉·普拉丹周二表示，印度計(jì)劃在未來(lái)10年將煉油能力提高近一倍，達(dá)到4.5-5億噸，以滿足不斷增長(zhǎng)的國(guó)內(nèi)燃料需求和出口市場(chǎng)。西海岸一座每年6000萬(wàn)噸的新煉油廠的建設(shè)將很快啟動(dòng)，這對(duì)產(chǎn)能倍增計(jì)劃至關(guān)重要。

他說:“未來(lái)10年，我們的煉油產(chǎn)能將從目前的每年約2.5億噸增加到4.5-5億噸?！碑a(chǎn)能的增加包括現(xiàn)有裝置擴(kuò)建和新建煉油廠。

2019-2020年的煉油產(chǎn)能為2.499億噸，超過了2.137億噸的燃料需求，但這一需求到2030年可能會(huì)上升至3.35億噸，到2040年可能會(huì)上升至4.72億噸。

作為全球第三大石油消費(fèi)國(guó)，印度85%的能源需求依賴進(jìn)口，目前正計(jì)劃提前滿足需求的增長(zhǎng)。

普拉丹表示，拉賈斯坦邦的巴爾默正在建設(shè)一座產(chǎn)能為900萬(wàn)噸的新煉油廠，古吉拉特邦的Koyali，哈里亞納邦的Panipat，奧里薩邦的Paradip，安得拉邦的維扎格，孟買，中央邦的比納，馬薩諸塞州的邦納，阿薩姆邦的Numaligarh和欽奈的現(xiàn)有煉廠正在擴(kuò)建。

“西海岸煉油廠的建設(shè)將很快開始，”他補(bǔ)充說，煉油廠的建設(shè)、油氣管道的鋪設(shè)以及城市燃?xì)夥咒N網(wǎng)絡(luò)的擴(kuò)張將推動(dòng)對(duì)鋼鐵的需求。

印度石油公司主席桑吉夫·辛格援引了提高煉油能力工作組最近的一份報(bào)告稱，2030年印度的煉油能力將增加到3.63億噸，2035年將增加到4.43億噸，2040年將增加到5.33億噸。

此外，到2030年，印度的液化天然氣進(jìn)口能力將在目前4250萬(wàn)噸的基礎(chǔ)上增加4000萬(wàn)噸。

在介紹油氣行業(yè)的擴(kuò)張計(jì)劃時(shí)，辛格表示，計(jì)劃在現(xiàn)有69109個(gè)汽油泵的基礎(chǔ)上再增加7.8萬(wàn)個(gè)。把2207個(gè)壓縮天然氣站擴(kuò)大到1萬(wàn)個(gè)。28,790公里的輸油管網(wǎng)將再增加15,000公里，而16,981公里的天然氣管線再增加14,239公里。

印度的煉油能力已經(jīng)從1998年的每年6200萬(wàn)噸躍至2016年3月31日的2.32億噸，并在2020年3月進(jìn)一步達(dá)到2.499億噸。

煉油產(chǎn)能的增長(zhǎng)使印度成為2001-2002年以來(lái)最大的石油產(chǎn)品出口國(guó)。

India plans to nearly double oil refining capacity by 2030: Dharmendra Pradhan

India plans to almost double its oil refining capacity to 450-500 million tonnes in the next 10 years to meet the rising domestic fuel demand as well as cater to export market, Oil Minister Dharmendra Pradhan said on Tuesday. Speaking at a webinar on 'Atmanirbhar Bharat: Fostering Domestic Steel Usage in Oil & Gas Sector', he said construction of a new 60 million tonnes a year west coast refinery, which is crucial to the capacity doubling plan, will start soon.

"Our refining capacity will increase from about 250 million tonnes per annum now to 450-500 million tonnes in next 10 years," he said.

The capacity addition will be both brownfield (expansion of existing units) and greenfield (new refineries), he said.

The refining capacity of 249.9 million tonnes exceeded the fuel demand of 213.7 million tonnes in 2019-20, but the demand is likely to rise to 335 million tonnes by 2030 and 472 million tonnes by 2040.

International Energy Agency (IEA) forecast that India's fuel demand will reach 458 million tonnes by 2040.

As the world's third-biggest oil consumer, India imports 85 per cent of its energy requirements and is planning ahead to cater to the rise in demand.

Pradhan said while a new grassroot refinery of 9 million tonnes capacity is under construction at Barmer in Rajasthan, existing units at Koyali in Gujarat, Panipat in Haryana, Paradip in Odisha, Vizag in Andhra Pradesh, Mumbai, Bina in Madhya Pradesh, Numaligarh in Assam and Chennai are being expanded.

"Construction on the west coast refinery will start soon," he said, adding the refinery construction as well as laying of oil and gas pipelines and expansion of city gas distribution network will fuel demand for steel.

Speaking at the webinar, Indian Oil Corp (IOC) Chairman Sanjiv Singh quoted a recent report of the Working Group on Enhancing Refining Capacity to say India's refining capacity will expand to 363 million tonnes by 2030, to 443 million tonnes by 2035 and 533 million tonnes by 2040.

Also, India's India's LNG import capacity will rise by 40 million tonnes by 2030, adding to present capacity of 42.5 million tonnes.

While fuel demand has fallen in recent times due to slowdown in the economy and the lockdown imposed to curb spread of coronavirus, "in two years time, we should be back to projected demand trajectory," he said.

Detailing expansion planned in oil and gas sector, Singh said 78,000 petrol pumps are planned to be added to 69,109 present ones. Also, 2,207 CNG stations are to be expanded to 10,000.

Oil pipeline network of 28,790 km is to be augmented by another 15,000-km and 14,239 km will be added to 16,981 km of natural gas lines.

India has leapfrogged from a modest 62 million tonnes per annum refining capacity in 1998 to 232 million tonnes at end of March 31, 2016 and further to 249.9 million tonnes by March 2020.

The growth in refining capacity, which has made India a leading exporter of petroleum products since 2001-02, has been possible because of the de-licensing of petroleum refining by the government.
