赤道几内亚将新建炼油厂

据道琼斯9月22日消息，赤道几内亚政府已经表示，预计未来几个月将新建一座炼油厂，成本将在5,500万至7,600万美元之间。这家模块化炼油厂将由美国马拉松石油公司运营，炼油能力将在每天5000至10000桶之间，并将从Alba和Alen油井中开采原油。该炼油厂将使这个中非国家能够生产供当地消费的石油，并帮助该国减少成品油进口，解决成品油短缺的问题。赤道几内亚矿业和油气部长Gabriel Mbaga Obiang Lima表示，该投资将于2021年第一季度开始。

Equatorial Guinea Pushes Ahead With Building Of Oil Refinery for Local Supply

The government of Equatorial Guinea has said a new oil refinery expected to be built in the months ahead will cost between $55 million and $76 million.

The modular refinery, to be operated by U.S. energy company Marathon Petroleum, will have a capacity of between 5,000 and 10,000 barrels daily and will drill its crude from the Alba and Alen wells.

It will enable the Central African nation to produce oil for local consumption and help it cut imports of refined oil and halt shortage of refined hydrocarbons products.

Minister for Mines and Hydrocarbons Gabriel Mbaga Obiang Lima said the investment will start in the first quarter of 2021.
