据ICIS-MRC网站12月29日莫斯科报道,据路透社报道称,亚洲航空燃油现金溢价上周五跌至三周多以来的最低水平,连续周下跌,由于奥密克戎导致的旅行限制下,航空公司的运力继续疲软。
上周五,航空燃油的现金溢价较新加坡报价降至28美分/桶,为11月29日以来的最低水平。本周,差价下降了近63%。
Vortexa亚洲首席分析师Serena Huang表示,今年的航空燃油需求在很大程度上受到了旅行限制的影响。尽管几个亚洲国家最近几个月重新开放了边境,但国际航空旅行仍然有限,航空燃油需求复苏相对疲弱。
到2021年底,亚洲航空燃料精炼利润率有望比前一年翻番,但贸易商和分析师表示,航空需求可能要到本世纪20年代中期才能恢复到新冠疫情爆发前的水平。
就在疫苗接种和重新开放国界燃起了人们对航空旅行增加的希望之际,上个月出现了高传染性的新冠病毒奥密克戎变种,促使各国政府再次实施封锁和旅行限制。
在亚洲交易时段,航空燃油的炼油利润,也被称为价差,较迪拜原油下降到11.05美元/桶,比前一天下降了34美分。

Asia distillates-jet fuel cash premiums slip on Omicron-led travel restrictions
Asia's cash premiums for jet fuel slipped to their lowest in more than three weeks on Friday, posting a weekly drop, as airlines continue to struggle with weak capacity amid Omicron-led travel restrictions, reported Reuters.
Cash premiums for jet fuel dropped to 28 cents per bbl to Singapore quotes on Friday, the lowest since Nov. 29. The differentials have shed nearly 63% this week.
"Jet fuel demand this year has been largely undermined by travel restrictions. Even with the re-opening of borders across several Asian countries in recent months, international air travels are still limited, and jet fuel demand recovery has been relatively weak," said Serena Huang, Asia lead analyst at Vortexa.
Asia's jet fuel refining margins are on track to double by end-2021 from the previous year, but traders and analysts say it would likely take until the middle of this decade for aviation demand to return to pre-COVID levels.
Just as vaccinations and re-opening of national borders raised hopes for a pick-up in air travel, the highly contagious COVID-19 Omicron variant emerged last month, prompting governments to impose lockdowns and travel curbs again.
The refining margins, also known as cracks, for jet fuel dipped to USD11.05 per bbl over Dubai crude during Asian trading hours, 34 cents lower from a day earlier.
