今年，英国的炼油工业版图正经历数十年来最剧烈的收缩。4月29日，苏格兰唯一炼油厂格兰杰莫斯在 运营逾百年后停产，这座由Petroineos运营的14.5万桶/日炼厂长期被指缺乏竞争力而无法盈利。数周后 行业再遭重击，6月林肯郡产能11万桶/日的林赛炼油厂破产清算，使英国仅剩4座主要炼厂。笔者认 为，如果英国炼油行业成本和转型问题不能得到解决，英国炼油时代有终结的可能。 不过，英国能源转型慢于预期的现实又似乎给了英国炼厂一定的转机。电动车成本高企、电池材料受地 缘政治波动影响、英国电价高度不稳定，叠加生活成本危机，这些因素可能导致消费者保留现有柴油车 的时间远超政策制定者预期。除非需求比预期更快萎缩，否则英国柴油缺口可能持续存在。如是，则英 国炼油业还有一定的生存空间。而如果英国真的强行推动汽车电气化，则英国炼厂的最后关停并非不可 能发生的事情。 从技术上看，英国炼厂以加工轻质低硫原油为主，设计侧重汽油生产。历史上，英国汽油净出口常年为 正，大量输往北美及荷兰和比利时地区。但随着美国和中东成品油产业发展，加之英国汽车向柴油车型 转型，导致柴油持续短缺，英国只能以进口填补缺口：2024年英国62.4万桶/日清洁燃 ...
