沙特目前有超过50%的电力来自原油燃料
沙特正寻求转向可再生能源和天然气，以腾出原油用于出口
到2030年前，可再生能源和天然气可以帮助沙特阿拉伯每天腾出多达100万桶的原油用于出口
据美国油价网7月22日报道，商业网站《能源情报》援引业内消息人士的话报道说，沙特希望用天然气发电和可再生能源取代石油液体发电，通过减少发电中直接使用的原油，到2030年前，沙特每天可腾出多达100万桶原油用于出口。
沙特依赖原油和燃料油发电，在炎炎夏日的几个月里原油和燃料油的直接燃烧发电大大增加。
了解沙特能源结构的消息人士告诉《能源情报》，沙特是世界上最大的原油出口国，目前国内51%的电力来自原油和石油液体，49%来自天然气。
根据《能源情报》的消息，沙特的计划也是其到2060年净零碳排放目标的一部分，这个计划要求高达50%的电力来自可再生能源，高达55%的电力来自天然气。
根据总部位于利雅得的联合石油数据库（JODI）发布的统计数据，5月份，由于中东气温上升和对空调的需求开始激增，沙特燃油发电的原油日需求量提高到58.2万桶，比4月份日增18.5万桶，比去年同期水平日增13.1万桶。
分析人士说，今年夏天，沙特发电厂直接燃烧原油和石油产品的速度将加快，这可能导致其国际市场的原油供应减少。
减少直接用于发电的原油和石油产品将提高沙特的原油出口能力，沙特已经表示，其原油日产能上限将在2027年达到1300万桶。
沙特王储萨勒曼日前表示，沙特已承诺到2027年前将原油日产能提高到1300万桶以上，届时沙特将没有额外的原油产能。

Saudi Arabia Has Big Plans To Boost Oil Export Capacity
· Saudi Arabia currently generations more than 50 percent of its electricity from petroleum fuels.
· The Kingdom is looking to pivot to renewables and natural gas to free up oil for export.
· Renewables and natural gas could help Saudi Arabia free up as much as 1 million barrels per day of oil for exports by 2030.
Saudi Arabia expects to have freed up to 1 million barrels per day (bpd) of oil for exports by 2030 by cutting its direct oil use in power generation as it looks to replace petroleum liquids with gas-powered generation and renewables, Energy Intelligence reports, quoting industry sources.
Saudi Arabia relies on crude and fuel oil for electricity generation and cranks up direct crude and fuel burns during the scorching summer months.
Saudi Arabia, the world’s top crude oil exporter, currently generates 51 percent of its electricity from petroleum liquids, and 49 percent from natural gas, sources with knowledge of the Saudi energy mix told Energy Intelligence.
The Saudi plan, also part of its 2060 net-zero goal, entails having up to 50 percent of electricity coming from renewable energy and up to 55 percent from gas, according to Energy Intelligence’s sources.
In May, as temperatures rose and demand for air conditioning in the Middle East begins to surge, Saudi Arabia raised its direct use of crude oil to 582,000 bpd, up by 185,000 bpd from April, and 131,000 bpd above year-ago levels, according to data from the Joint Organisations Data Initiative (JODI).
This summer, direct crude and product burn at power generation plants in Saudi Arabia has accelerated, which could leave lower available crude supply for international markets, analysts say.
Reducing direct oil and petroleum liquids burned for power generation would boost the crude oil export capacity of Saudi Arabia, which has already said that its production capacity limit will be 13 million bpd when it’s reached in 2027.
Saudi Arabia will not have additional capacity to increase production above the 13 million bpd it has pledged to have by 2027, Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman said last week.
Referring to oil supply to global markets, the Crown Prince said that “The Kingdom will do its part in this regard, as it announced an increase in its production capacity to 13 million barrels per day, after which the Kingdom will not have any additional capacity to increase production.”
