据ICIS-MRC网站7月19日莫斯科报道，据路透社报道，印度6月原油进口量降至9个月来的最低水平，因低消费量和前两个月的新冠肺炎封锁导致燃料库存增加，炼油厂减少了购买。
根据来自贸易来源的油轮抵达数据显示，作为世界第三大石油进口国和消费国，印度上个月的原油进口量约为390万桶/天，较5月份下降约7%，但较上年同期增长22%。
印度是亚洲第二大原油进口国，上月原油进口量出现下滑。
一位不愿透露姓名的印度炼油官员表示，在2月和3月印度燃料需求上升后，该国炼油商加快了原油加工和石油进口。不过，在政府为遏制第二波冠状病毒疫情而采取限制措施后， 4 月和 5 月的燃料需求大幅下滑，导致炼油厂燃料库存居高不下。
然而，根据数据显示，印度4-6月的原油进口同比增长11.7%，至410万桶/日，因为封锁限制没有去年新冠疫情首次袭击印度时那么严重。
上个月，伊拉克仍然是印度最大的石油供应国，其次是沙特阿拉伯。阿联酋排名上升四位，成为第三大供应国，而尼日利亚从5月份的第5位上升到第4位。美国排名第五，加拿大紧随其后。根据数据显示，6月份印度从中东进口的石油占比从前一个月的53%上升至约59%，而其他地区的份额有所下降。

June oil imports into India hit lowest in 9 months on low consumption and renewed coronavirus lockownds
India's crude oil imports in June fell to their lowest in nine months, as refiners curtailed purchases amid higher fuel inventories due to low consumption and renewed coronavirus lockdowns in the previous two months, reported Reuters.
India, the world's third-biggest oil importer and consumer, shipped in about 3.9 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude last month, about 7% down from May, but 22% higher from year-ago levels, tanker arrival data obtained from trade sources showed.
India is the second major importer in Asia, after China, to post a slump in last month's crude imports.
After an uptick in India's fuel demand in February and March, the country's refiners cranked up crude processing and oil imports, said an Indian refining official who declined to be named as he is not authorised to speak to media. However, fuel demand fell sharply in April and May after the government imposed restrictions to curbasecond wave of coronavirus, leaving refiners with high fuel inventories.
India's crude imports between April and June, however, rose 11.7% year-on-year to 4.1 million bpd as the lockdown curbs were not as severe as last year when COVID-19 first hit the nation, according to the data.
Last month, Iraq stayed as the top oil supplier to India, followed by Saudi Arabia. The United Arab Emirates climbed four notches to emerge as third-biggest supplier while Nigeria rose to No.4 from No.5 in May. The United States was at No.5, followed by Canada. The share of oil from the Middle East in India's imports rose to about 59% in June from 53% in the prior month, while that of other regions declined, data showed.
