据油价网2月1日消息称，美国最大的炼油商高管本周在财报电话会议上表示，由于欧盟禁运，以及亚洲大国需求反弹，预计今年到2024年炼油利润率将保持强劲。

“围绕亚洲大国复苏的速度和影响、美国或全球潜在衰退的程度，以及原油产品制裁的影响，仍存在不确定性。尽管存在这些未知因素，但我们相信，目前的供应限制和不断增长的需求将在2023年支撑强劲的炼油利润率。”马拉松石油公司首席执行官Mike Hennigan周二表示。

全球清洁产品价值链高级副总裁Brian Partee表示：“考虑到地缘政治局势的动态性质，供应保证的因素确实是一个很大的未知数，但考虑到我们在大西洋盆地的位置，我们感觉很好，能够充分利用这一点。”

埃克森美孚首席执行官Darren Woods表示：“如果需求回升，经济继续增长，我们将看到炼油利润率持续高企，这将意味着今年的利润率相当高，可能一直持续到2024年。”

U.S. Refiners Expect High Margins In 2023

The biggest U.S. refiners expect refining margins to remain strong this year and into 2024, on the back of the EU ban on seaborne imports of fuel and a rebound in the biggest country in Asia demand, executives said on the earnings calls this week.  

“Uncertainties remain around the pace and impact of Asian recovery, the magnitude of a potential US or global recession, and the impact of product sanctions. But despite these unknowns, we believe that the current supply constraints and growing demand will support strong refining margins in '23,” Marathon Petroleum’s CEO Mike Hennigan said on Tuesday.

“Given the dynamic nature of the situation , that supply assurance component is really a big unknown, but we feel well -- very well positioned to take advantage of that, given our position in the Atlantic basin,” said Brian Partee, Senior Vice President, Global Clean Products Value Chain.

ExxonMobil’s CEO Darren Woods said that “If demand picks up, economies continue to grow, we're going to see that tightness manifest itself in continued high refining margins, which I think will mean fairly high margins this year and potentially going into 2024 as well.”
