深夜时分，黑海的海岸突然被撕裂，橙红色的火球冲天而起，蘑菇状的烟柱在漆黑的夜空中显得格外醒目。这场发生在11月中旬的爆炸事件并非一起意外， 而是乌克兰军队精准打击俄罗斯新罗西斯克石油枢纽的结果，成为了战场上一幕震撼的画面。 随着火光逐渐消退，全球迎来了一个更加棘手的问题——每天200万桶的石油供应突然"消失"，国际油价随之迅速反应。 尽管很多人对新罗西斯克这个名字可能不太熟悉，但在全球能源格局中，它是俄罗斯通往黑海的"能源咽喉"。作为由俄罗斯石油运输公司控制的核心枢纽， 这里不仅是俄罗斯石油出口的重要节点，还连接着里海管道系统，是哈萨克斯坦原油转口出口的关键所在。 换句话说，这个港口每天的石油出口量，占据了全球石油供应总量的2%。看似微不足道的2%，在全球能源市场中却如同一根精密的天平，任何波动都可能 引发一系列连锁反应。 此次袭击的方式彰显了乌克兰军队战术的升级。攻击的主力是乌克兰自主研发的"海王星"巡航导弹。这些导弹并非仅仅依靠一两枚单打独斗，而是通过多枚 导弹的协同攻击，突破了俄军防空系统，成功撕开了俄罗斯的防线。 目击者称，爆炸声此起彼伏，响声像鞭炮一样不断，石油储罐被击中后，流淌的原油加剧了火势，火 ...

2025年前9个月，中国日均进口石油超过1100万桶，相当于全球最大产油国沙特的日产量。 法国兴业银行分析师指出，中国的采购规模已能左右国际油价。 如果中国停止购买，油价可能迅速跌至每桶50美元出头。 这意味着中国不仅是在囤油，客 观上还为全球油价设置了底线。 中国自2004年启动战略石油储备建设，至今已建成覆盖舟山、大连、黄岛等9大国家石油储备基地。 这些基地采用地上油罐与地下盐穴相结合储油方式，福建、辽宁等项目已实现智能化管理，存储成本降低30%。 但其中每天有100万至120万桶并未进入炼油厂，而是被直接注入国家战略储备库。 这场"囤油行动"的规模之大，甚至一度吸收了全球九成新增原油库存。 国际油价在2025年10月跌至每桶65美元，接近五年低点。 相比2022年每桶120美元的高位，差价达到55美元。 以日均囤积100万桶计算，中国每囤一天油就 能节省5500万美元进口成本。 中国的石油对外依存度高达71.9%，超过七成石油需求依赖进口。 而其中80%的进口石油需经过马六甲海峡，这条最窄处仅2.8公里的水道，在台海局势紧张 时可能面临被封锁的风险。 2025年3月至10月，国际油价持续下行，布伦特原油 ...
