???? 據(jù)今日油價網(wǎng)站2月2日消息 美國從路易斯安那州的海上超級油輪港口出口的石油在一月份躍升到創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的水平，因?yàn)閬喼拶I家正在囤積美國原油，以應(yīng)對疫情后的燃料消耗反彈。

????據(jù)彭博社搜集的船只追蹤數(shù)據(jù)顯示，8艘船只從路易斯安那州近海石油港口（LOOP）啟航，該港口是美國唯一可以滿載超級油輪的設(shè)施，向韓國和印度運(yùn)送近1500萬桶原油。這是前一個月成交量的兩倍，也是LOOP的歷史最高值。

????隨著市場從去年有史以來最嚴(yán)重的崩盤中反彈，亞洲煉油商的需求為美國石油提供了主要支撐。亞洲比世界其他地區(qū)更快地從這場流行病中恢復(fù)過來，這有助于恢復(fù)對原油的需求，并推動美國基準(zhǔn)油價今年迄今上漲13%。

????今年1月，美國向亞洲出口的海灣原油總量增至近5100萬桶。

????亞洲煉油商還面臨著歐佩克及其盟友恢復(fù)部分產(chǎn)量的不確定性。LOOP接收了墨西哥灣生產(chǎn)的大部分高硫原油，包括Mars Blend原油，一種可以替代中東石油生產(chǎn)的區(qū)域性含硫基準(zhǔn)原油。

????Kpler原油市場分析師Emmanuel Belostrino說：“LOOP的大部分出口很可能是Mars Blend原油。”

????根據(jù)路易斯安那州的數(shù)據(jù)，11月份Mars Blend原油的日產(chǎn)量估計(jì)超過50萬桶。

????今年1月從LOOP起航的油輪大多是超大型原油運(yùn)輸船（VLCCs），每艘都能運(yùn)載200萬桶石油。

????LOOP是Marathon Pipe Line、Valero Terminalling and Distribution和荷蘭皇家殼牌公司的合資單位，后者是墨西哥灣的主要生產(chǎn)商。

????U.S. oil exports to Asia hit new record in January

????American oil exports from Louisiana’s offshore supertanker port jumped to a record in January as Asian buyers are stocking up U.S. crude for a post-pandemic rebound in fuel consumption.

????Eight vessels set sail from the Louisiana Offshore Oil Port, the nation’s only facility that can fully load supertankers, carrying nearly 15 million barrels of crude to South Korea and India, according to ship-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg. That’s double the previous month’s volume and an all-time high for LOOP, as the terminal is known.

????Asian-refiner demand has provided major support to U.S. oil as the market rebounds from its worst-ever crash last year. Asia has recovered faster from the pandemic than the rest of the world, helping revive demand for crude and boost U.S. benchmark prices 13% so far this year.

????Total U.S. Gulf crude outflows to Asia rose to nearly 51 million barrels in January.

????Asian refiners also face uncertainty in the return of some production from OPEC and its allies. LOOP receives the bulk of the high-sulfur crudes produced in the Gulf of Mexico, including Mars Blend, a regional sour benchmark that can replace oil produced in the Middle East.

????“It is likely most of the exports from LOOP were Mars Blend,” said Emmanuel Belostrino, a Kpler crude market analyst

????In November, Mars Blend crude output was estimated at over half-a-million barrels a day, according to Louisiana state data.

????Most of the tankers that set sail from LOOP in January were very large crude carriers, or VLCCs, each capable of carrying up to 2 million barrels of oil.

????LOOP is a joint venture of Marathon Pipe Line LLC, Valero Terminalling and Distribution Co. and a unit of Royal Dutch Shell Plc, which is a major producer in the Gulf of Mexico.
