據MRCHUB網站8月9日據烴加工網信息顯示,根據印度政府數據顯示,由于季風帶來降雨限制了這個世界第三大石油進口國和消費國的流動性,印度7月份的燃料消耗量下滑至10個月來的最低點。
作為石油需求指標的石油消費7月份消費總量為1809萬噸,較6月份下降6.6%。不過,與去年同期相比增長了2%。
主要用于卡車和商用乘用車的柴油7月銷量環比下降約13%,至689萬噸。
Kpler首席原油分析師Viktor Katona表示,由于季風的影響,原有燃料消費模式已經放緩,而上月上半月印度北部各邦的洪水又加劇了7月份柴油需求的疲軟。
在6月份開始的為期4個月的季風季節,印度的燃料需求通常會下降,因為該國部分地區受到嚴重洪災的影響。
Katona表示,交通受限和建筑活動整體放緩是瀝青需求降至今年最低水平的關鍵因素。相信印度的柴油需求將在8月份保持低迷,只有在9到10月份才會反彈。
根據數據顯示,7月份汽油銷量為299萬噸,比上月下降5.3%。用于修路的瀝青銷售量比6月份下降了30%,而燃料油的使用量在7月份上升了9.6%。液化石油氣(LPG)的銷售量增長了7%至239萬噸,石腦油銷售量增長了9.3%至107萬噸。

India's fuel demand slips to 10-month low in July
India’s fuel consumption slipped to a 10-month low in July, government data showed, as monsoon rains restricted mobility in the world's third-biggest oil importer and consumer, said Hydrocarbonprocessing.
Total consumption in July, a proxy for oil demand, totaled 18.09 million tons, down 6.6% from June. However, it was up 2% compared with the same period a year earlier.
Sales of diesel, mainly used by trucks and commercially run passenger vehicles dipped about 13% month-on-month to 6.89 million tons in July.
"With consumption patterns already slowing down due to the monsoon, weak July figures for diesel demand were aggravated by the floods in Northern Indian states over the first-half of last month," said Viktor Katona, lead crude analyst at Kpler.
Fuel demand in India typically falls during the four-month monsoon season beginning in June as parts of the country are affected by heavy floods.
"Restricted mobility and an overall slowdown in construction activity have been the key factors behind bitumen demand falling to the lowest reading this year. We believe India's diesel demand will remain subdued in August, only to rebound in September-October," Katona said.
Sales of gasoline in July were 5.3% lower than the previous month at 2.99 million tons. Sales of bitumen, used for making roads, dropped 30% from June, while fuel oil use rose 9.6% in July. Cooking gas, or liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), sales increased about 7% to 2.39 million tons and naphtha sales rose 9.3% to 1.07 million tons, the data showed.
