Daxie Development Zone witnesses increase of crude oil imports

It is learned from the management committee of the Daxie Development Zone that in the first half of this year, the zone received a total load of 14.227 million tons of crude oil, including 8.38 million tons from the countries of the belt and road area, accounting for 59% of the total imports.

Reportedly, all the crude oil imports are unloaded by Shihua Wharf and Ningbo Daxie PetroChina Fuel Oil Terminal Co. Ltd. In recent years, with its unique geographical advantages and the ever-increasing unloading capacity, the zone has been receiving about one tenth of the total crude oil imports in China annually.

The Shihua Wharf has one 250,000-ton berth and a 20,000-ton berth. Since the launching of the Belt and Road Initiative, we have received more crude oil imports from the countries of the belt and road area year by year. said a person in charge from the company. The initiative has brought new opportunities for the company. Since the launching of the initiative, the target crude oil suppliers have been expanded to Asia, Africa and the South America, with the imports from the belt and road area growing steadily. The ESPO from Russia, the AXL from Saudi Arabia and the IH from Iran are imported for the first time. So far, the wharf has received and unloaded 20 kinds of crude oil imports, greatly ensuring the domestic needs
