卓创资讯（301299）成品油分析师仇晓表示，本轮成品油零售限价遇近三年来最大跌幅。本轮计价周期以来，美国贸易关税政策调整，导致市场对石油需 求预期降低，加之，8个欧佩克(石油输出国组织)和非欧佩克产油国("欧佩克+")宣布增产，国际原油价格下跌明显，且一度跌至近四年来最低水平。虽然 后期关税消息对市场的作用减弱，原油价格有所回升，但国内测算原油变化率仍在负值内不断加深。 国际油价一度跌至近四年的最低点 本轮成品油调价是2025年的第八次。本次调价落地后，2025年成品油调价将呈现"三涨四跌一搁浅"。 本次调价将令私家车主和物流企业成本有所减少。据隆众资讯分析师徐雯雯测算，以油箱容量50升的普通私家车来计算，车主们加满一箱油将少花18.5元 左右；按市区每一百公里耗油7升至8升的车型来算，平均每行驶一百公里，费用将减少2.8元左右。对于满载50吨货物的大型物流运输车辆而言，平均每 行驶一百公里，燃油费用减少16元左右。 今晚24时油价调整。 据国家发展改革委消息，新一轮成品油调价窗口将于今天(4月17日)24时开启，国内汽、柴油零售限价每吨分别下调480元、465元。本轮成品油调价周期(4 月2日至4月16日 ...

新一轮成品油调价窗口将在4月17日24时开启。记者注意到，由于国际油价在近期出现断崖式下跌，国 内成品油价或出现年内最大的下调幅度。 据卓创资讯（301299）监测，本周期(4月2日24时至4月17日24时)内，国际油价整体呈现先跌后涨的走 势。其中，前期原油市场出现了近三年来的单日最大跌幅，国内参考的原油变化率由正转负并在负值内 不断加深。预计4月17日24时国内成品油零售限价或下调，此次下调幅度或为年内最大。 金联创成品油分析师毕明欣表示，本轮计价周期内，利空消息占据市场主导位置，国际油价走势震荡下 行。具体来看，美国所谓的"对等关税"增加了全球经济衰退的可能性，投资者担心美国关税政策可能导 致企业价格上涨，从而使美国经济活动放缓，最终损害石油需求。 此外，4月3日，石油输出国组织(欧佩克)发表声明说，8个欧佩克和非欧佩克产油国("欧佩克+")决定自 今年5月起日均增产41.1万桶——这一增产量远高于市场预期。此次增产包含原定于5月增加的产量以及 额外两个月的增产量。同时，"欧佩克+"将根据市场情况灵活调整增产节奏，以维护石油市场稳定。 "欧佩克+"2023年11月宣布日均220万桶的自愿减产措施，此后减 ...
