据ICIS-MRC网站10月13日莫斯科报道, 据路透社报道,墨西哥政府公布的一项140亿美元的投资计划将能源支出集中在墨西哥石油公司(Petroleos Mexicanos 简称Pemex)的炼油业务上,旨在提高该国有石油公司加工重原油的能力。
该计划包括990亿比索合(46.5亿美元)的能源项目,似乎没有包括新的主要的石油勘探和生产投资,尽管Pemex的原油产量不断下降,私营部门也在为这些项目游说。
最重要的项目是一个547亿比索的项目,以完成在墨西哥中部的Pemex的Tula炼油厂部分建造的焦化厂。 这个项目是由上届政府启动的。
这个所谓的深度转化炼油项目将使墨西哥国家石油公司(Pemex)从主要重质原油的生产中提高汽油和柴油等价值较高的汽车燃料的产量,同时将价值较低的燃料油产量降至最低。
该计划承诺提供154亿比索,用于升级Pemex位于北部Cadereyta炼油厂的现有焦化厂。
另一项252亿比索的投资计划是在墨西哥国家石油公司最大的炼油厂所在的Salina Cruz南部港口建设一座天然气液化厂。
官员宣布的两个较小的能源项目包括墨西哥湾沿岸Pajaritos港口的Pemex乙烷码头,以及一个新的化肥厂。
正如MRC早些时候通知的那样,Pemex正在推进一项炼油厂改造计划,该计划将使其在2020年底前能够加工120万桶/天的原油,并对其位于墨西哥Cangrejera的石化设施的改造进行评估,该设施将成为其第八个炼油厂。

Mexico investment plan energy projects focus on Pemex refining
A USD14 billion investment plan unveiled by the Mexican government focuses energy outlays on the refining business of Petroleos Mexicanos (Pemex), aiming to boost the state oil firm’s ability to process heavy crudes, reported Reuters.
The plan, which comprises some 99 billion pesos (USD4.65 billion) in energy projects, did not appear to include new major oil exploration and production investments, despite Pemex’s declining crude output and private sector lobbying for them.
The top item is a 54.7 billion peso project to complete a partly-built coking plant at Pemex’s Tula refinery in central Mexico. The project was begun by the previous government.
The so-called deep conversion refining project would allow more output of higher-value motor fuels like gasoline and diesel from Pemex’s mostly heavy crude production, while minimizing less valuable fuel oil.
The plan pledges 15.4 billion pesos for upgrades to Pemex’s existing coking plant at its northern Cadereyta refinery.
Another 25.2 billion peso investment is slated for a project to build a natural gas liquefaction plant at the southern port of Salina Cruz, where Pemex’s biggest refinery is.
Two smaller energy projects announced by officials include a Pemex ethane terminal at the Gulf Coast port of Pajaritos, as well as a new fertilizer plant.
As MRC informed earlier, Pemex is advancing a refinery rehabilitation program that will enable it to process 1.2 million b/d of crude oil by the end of 2020 and evaluating a reconfiguration of its petrochemical facility at Cangrejera, Mexico, into what would be its eighth refinery.
