据普氏能源资讯新加坡12月27日消息 马来西亚的Kimanis原油明年可能会引领东南亚的现货贸易活动，因为轻甜级原油的产量将继续攀升，预计2019年平均每月将有10批Aframax现货供应。

包括印尼和越南在内的东南亚主要原油生产国的总体产量在2018年继续下滑，而国内炼油需求的增长，加大了过去几个季度各自出口数据的下行压力。

然而，2014年首次在亚洲市场进行商业销售的相对较新的Kimanis原油，将继续为东南亚现货市场提供充足的流动性。

沙巴海上Gumusut-Kakap油田生产的Kimanis原油，于2014年9月首次在现货市场供应，同年11月装船。

该项目运营商壳牌公司此前表示，该项目预计在满负荷运转后将达到13.5万桶/天。

知情人士对标准普尔全球普氏能源资讯表示，最近几个月随着Malikai新推出的平台产量小幅上升，Kimanis的原油日产量已跃升至20万桶左右。

Malikai项目的产出量通常与Gumusut-Kakap油田的石油混合，然后以Kimanis的形式出口。壳牌已于2016年底开始从Malikai项目开采石油。

由于产量充足，1月马来西亚计划出口总计600万桶的Kimanis原油。

马来西亚国有石油天然气公司计划在1月4日至8日、1月10日至14日、1月19日至23日和1月25日至29日期间装载4批货物。

康菲石油公司有三批货物在1月1-5日、1月16-20日和1月28- 2月1日装运。壳牌有两批货物要在1月13-17日和1月22-26日装载，文莱石油公司有一批货物要在1月7-11日装载。

Outlook 2019: Malaysia's Kimanis crude to lead Southeast Asian spot supply

Malaysia's Kimanis crude will likely lead Southeast Asian spot trade activities next year as the production of the light sweet grade continued to grind higher, with 10 Aframax cargoes expected to be offered every month on average in 2019.

Major Southeast Asian crude producers including Indonesia and Vietnam continued to witness their overall production slide in 2018, while growing domestic refining requirements added to the downward pressure on their respective export figures over the past few quarters.

However, the relatively new Kimanis crude which first made its debut commercial sale in the Asian market in 2014 will continue to contribute ample liquidity in the Southeast Asian spot market.

Kimanis crude, produced at the Gumusut-Kakap field offshore Sabah, was first offered in the spot market in September 2014 for loading in November the same year.

The project was expected to peak at 135,000 b/d once it is ramped up to full capacity, project operator Shell said previously.

The overall Kimanis crude production has jumped to around 200,000 b/d if not more in recent months, as the output from the new Malikai Tension-Leg Platform inched higher, sources with close knowledge of the production rate told S&P Global Platts.

Output from the Malikai project is typically blended with oil from the Gumusut-Kakap field, and exported as Kimanis. Shell has started oil production from the Malikai project in late 2016.

Reflecting the ample production rate, a total of 6 million barrels of Malaysian Kimanis crude are scheduled to be exported in January.

Malaysia's state-owned oil and gas company Petronas is slated to load four cargoes over January 4-8, January 10-14, January 19-23 and January 25-29, the program showed.

ConocoPhillips has three cargoes for loading over January 1-5, January 16-20 and January 28-February 1. Shell has two cargoes for loading over January 13-17 and January 22-26, and Petroleum Brunei has one cargo for loading over January 7-11.
