两大央企重组营收超中石油！航油采购和出行成本会降吗

Core Viewpoint - The restructuring of China Petroleum & Chemical Corporation (Sinopec) and China Aviation Oil Group (CAOG) aims to integrate upstream production and downstream sales of aviation fuel, potentially leading to a significant increase in revenue and operational efficiency for both companies [3]. Group 1: Company Overview - Sinopec ranked 6th globally in the 2025 Fortune Global 500 with a revenue of $407.5 billion, while CAOG ranked 481st with $33.4 billion in revenue. Post-restructuring, their combined revenue is expected to surpass that of China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) [3]. - CAOG is the largest aviation fuel service provider in Asia, handling procurement, transportation, storage, testing, sales, and refueling, while Sinopec is the world's largest refining company and China's top aviation fuel producer [3]. Group 2: Market Impact - CAOG holds a monopoly in the domestic aviation fuel sales market, supplying nearly all domestic and international airlines in China. The pricing mechanism for aviation fuel is based on CAOG's comprehensive procurement cost plus local airport markups, ensuring profitability even during airline losses [5]. - The merger is expected to provide CAOG with more stable upstream resources and expand Sinopec's sales channels, potentially reducing aviation fuel costs by eliminating intermediaries [5][6]. Group 3: Pricing Mechanism - The current pricing mechanism for aviation fuel involves a "comprehensive procurement cost" that includes a factory price and a markup based on market conditions. Changes in this mechanism will determine whether the merger leads to actual price reductions for airlines [6]. Group 4: Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) - The merger is anticipated to accelerate the production and use of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), which is crucial for reducing carbon emissions in the aviation sector. The use of SAF is becoming increasingly important as countries set carbon peak and reduction targets [7]. - Although there are no mandatory regulations for airlines to use SAF in China, several domestic airlines have conducted verification flights with SAF. Sinopec has been a pioneer in SAF production, with significant production capabilities and partnerships to enhance SAF development [8].
