China's oil product imports of Current Situation and Countermeasures

In recent years, as economic globalization and rapid economic development, China's oil consumption has been second only to the United States, ranking second in the world. The same time, a serious shortage of domestic oil production, import dependency growing. According to statistics, in 2009 China's net imports of 219 million tons of oil, and the apparent consumption of 408 million tons, the import dependence of 50% the first time, petroleum products imported into the bulk of the most important resource commodities. At present, Shandong ports of petroleum products has become an important base for the import, the import trade of the author based on the new features ports, combined with the practical front-line inspection, analysis of the current quality of imported petroleum products, the existing problems, and puts forward countermeasures and suggestions in order to boost imports of oil products a benign growth.

    With crude oil imports and rising international oil prices, crude oil imports shortweight become increasingly prominent, primarily in the following aspects: First, lack of loading port shipments. Some shippers for their own interests, in accordance with the exemption within five thousandths or less of the weight of international practice in the volume control device. Second, the measurement in different ways. Weight capacity of the cabin to take the current weight of the way, when the ports of loading weight adverse sea conditions affect the readings of weight staff. Third, uninstall the volume difference. Unloaded in two hours when the Hong Kong Port and more often a shortage of one port discharge. Fourth, do not fully uninstall. A few species because of their physical properties caused by the oil tank wall oil and bilge oil left serious, ships can not fully emptied.

    In addition, imports of fuel oil quality can not be ignored. Analysis of the following reasons: First, the relative complexity of fuel oil components, quality volatile. Second, domestic and international fuel standards are not uniform. The current international fuel oil major component of the 180CST and 380CST and M40, M100 and M300, while the domestic petrochemical only were classified on the fuel oil, fuel oil into 1 ~ 7. Third, the standard does not apply. International fuel oil are mainly used for fuel, fuel oil imports are currently mainly used for domestic processing, the main purpose and scope of application of inconsistent standards. Fourth, the domestic standard is lagging behind. National standards are currently widely used SH/T0356-1996 ASTMD396-92 reference standard is not updated and amended.

    In this, the author recommends that companies take effective measures to avoid trade risk: First import enterprises should be stipulated in the contract to the port of discharge issued by quality inspection and quarantine institutions and weight results as the basis for settlement to avoid the shipper loading port the occurrence of short weight; 2 clear in the contract of enterprise measurement method, the best to shore tank discharge measurement transfer, the ability of enterprises can use flow meters to measure the transfer pipeline; Third, goods assembled in Hong Kong occurred in the proposed company sent in ships, real-time monitoring discharge rate and avoid a multi-port discharge less than a Hong Kong; Fourth, a few physical characteristics with sticky, wall seriously detrimental to the oil discharge operation, it is suggested companies specified in the contract to the port of discharge tank quantity settlement.

    Recommended inspection and quarantine authorities strictly regulate the inspection and supervision work on the operation of a unified standard. Currently there is no national standard imported oil, the Industry Standard and other uniform inspection standards should be developed as soon as possible the import of petroleum and petroleum products inspection regulations, harmonization of port inspection and monitoring procedures. Strengthen the technical training, particularly to increase the intensity of training testing of fuel oil imports. Strengthening port inspection and quarantine authorities of other exchanges between, when the two-Kong branch of imported crude oil unloading the present situation, should be timely and relevant port inspection and quarantine departments to Jishu ?? and communication, unified standards and testing methods Fang Zhi Chu Xian Jiao testing results Big difference.
