Sinopec's acquisition of Chevron Oil Refinery in South Africa

China intensified to secure its oil needs. The latest, China Petroleum and Chemical Corp. (Sinopec) will acquire Chevron's refinery in the Southern African region. If the deal comes to pass, then this will be the first refinery Sinopec on the African continent.

Valuation acquisition in Africa's largest oil refinery is US $ 1 billion. At present, Sinopec announced in the last deals with Chevron. Source Reuters explains, the auction which has been opened for one year was won Sinopec that beat other bidders such as Total, the French oil company from Glencore and Gunvor.

Even so, the acquisition process is still confronted with obstacles. For South African government wants to maintain refinery operations. While Sinopce reportedly prefer to convert the oil into storage terminals because it is considered more profitable. Sinopce still discussing with the South African Government to maintain oil refinery production remains smooth.

Oil production should be kept 110,000 barrels per day refinery in Cape Town. In addition to control assets ambitious oil refinery, formerly Sinopec also are changing China's petrochemical products to a high quality. Sinopec Chairman Wang Yupu said it will invest US $ 29.05 billion for the upgrade of four distillation throughout the years 2016 to 2020.

With a refining capacity to renew the production would increase to 130 million tons per year or the equivalent of 2.6 million barrels per day. Also, reduce logistics costs and optimize the product structure. 

    Braden Reddal Chevron spokesman said the sale of the business in South Africa including the Chevron oil refinery in Cape Town is still in process. "There is still discussed requests ownership interest of 75%," said Reddal Reuters. The remaining 25% stake held by a consortium of Black Economic Empowerment and employee combined.

Sinopec Akuisisi Kilang Minyak Chevron di Afrika Selatan

China makin gencar mengamankan kebutuhan minyaknya. Terbaru, China Petroleum dan Chemical Corp (Sinopec) akan mengakuisisi kilang minyak milik Chevron di wilayah Afrika Selatan. Jika kesepakatan tersebut

terwujud, maka ini akan menjadi kilang pertama Sinopec di benua Afrika. 

Valuasi akuisisi kilang minyak terbesar di Afrika tersebut mencapai US$ 1 miliar. Saat ini, Sinopec dikabarkan dalam penawaran terakhir dengan Chevron. Sumber Reuters menjelaskan, lelang yang telah dibuka selama satu tahun tersebut berhasil dimenangkan Sinopec yang mengalahkan penawar lain seperti Total, perusahaan asal minyak Prancis, Glencore dan Gunvor.

Meski begitu, proses akuisisi masih menemui hambatan. Sebab Pemerintah Afrika selatan ingin menjaga operasi kilang. Sementara Sinopce dikabarkan lebih memilih mengonversi minyak ke terminal penyimpanan karena dinilai lebih menguntungkan. Sinopce masih berdiskusi dengan Pemerintah Afrika Selatan untuk menjaga produksi kilang minyak tetap lancar. 

Produksi minyak harus dijaga 110.000 barel per kilang per hari di Cape Town. Selain berambisi menguasai aset kilang minyak, sebelumnya Sinopec juga sedang mengubah produk petrokimia China ke kualitas tinggi. Chairman Sinopec Wang Yupu mengatakan akan berinvestasi US$ 29,05 miliar untuk upgrade empat penyulingan sepanjang tahun 2016 sampai 2020.

Dengan memperbaharui kapasitas penyulingan tersebut maka produksi akan bertambah menjadi 130 juta ton per tahun atau setara 2,6 juta barel per hari. Juga, mengurangi biaya logistik dan mengoptimalkan struktur produk. 

    Juru bicara Chevron Braden Reddal mengatakan, penjualan bisnis Chevron di Afrika Selatan termasuk kilang minyak di Cape Town masih dalam proses. "Masih didiskusikan permintaan kepentingan kepemilikan saham sebesar 75%," kata Reddal seperti dikutip Reuters. Sisanya, saham 25% dikuasai oleh konsorsium Black Economic Empowerment dan gabungan karyawan.

Selain kilang, Chevron juga memiliki pabrik pelumas di pantai timur Durban. Pabrik tersebut memiliki tangki penyimpanan dan jaringan stasiun layanan Caltex. Rothschild & Co akan membantu Chevron menjual asetnya.

Two Winning Bidder Block Not Wanted Use Gross Split

Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources (ESDM) establishes a winner again to auction 14 oil and gas blocks in the period April 2016 to April 2017. As a result there are currently two winners of the auction. "There are two winners, one for regular and one block direct deals. 

     Actually there is one between yes or no, he offered a little different," said Director of Upstream Oil and Gas Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources Single, Friday last week (17/3). Unfortunately, Tunggal not want to mention the name of the block and the name of the company that wins. "I want to report first minister," he reasoned.

Since April 2016, the government is to auction 14 oil and gas blocks. The details: seven regular conventional oil and gas blocks, namely Block South CPR Suremana I, Oti, Manakarra Mamuju, SE Mandar, North Argunim and Kasumi II.

      As for conventional oil and gas blocks with direct offers, namely Block Batu Gajah, Kasongan Sampit, Powerful, West Hill, Ebuny, Onin, and West Kaimana. However, related block direct deals there are three candidates, namely Block Ebuny, Onin and West Kaimana. As for the regular unknown.

The problem, of two winners of the oil and gas blocks has been no winner decided to use a gross scheme split. So, the government has directed that the conventional oil and gas blocks auction winner could use scheme split gross production sharing contracts, although the auction is done before sunrise rules.

Dua Pemenang Lelang Blok Tidak lngin Pakai Gross Split

Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral (ESDM) menetapkan satu pemenang lagi untuk lelang 14 blok migas pada periode April 2016-April 2017. Alhasil saat ini ada dua pemenang lelang. "Ada dua pemenang, satu untuk blok regular dan satu penawaran langsung. 

     Sebenarnya ada satu lagi antara ya atau tidak, dia menawar beda tipis," kata Direktur Pembinaan Hulu Migas Kementerian ESDM Tunggal, Jumat akhir pekan lalu (17/3). Sayangnya, Tunggal belum mau menyebut nama blok dan nama perusahaan yang menang. "Saya mau lapor menteri dulu," katanya beralasan.

Sejak April 2016 lalu, pemerintah memang membuka lelang 14 blok migas. Perinciannya: tujuh blok migas konvensional reguler, yaitu Blok South CPR Suremana I, Oti, Manakarra Mamuju, SE Mandar, North Argunim dan Kasumi II. 

     Adapun blok migas konvensional dengan penawaran langsung, yakni Blok Batu Gajah, Kasongan Sampit, Ampuh, Bukit Barat, Ebuny, Onin, dan West Kaimana. Namun terkait blok penawaran langsung ada tiga kandidat, yakni Blok Ebuny, Onin dan West Kaimana. Sementara untuk reguler belum diketahui.

Masalahnya, dari dua pemenang blok migas tersebut belum ada pemenang yang memutuskan untuk menggunakan skema gross split. Jadi, pemerintah masih mengarahkan agar pemenang lelang blok migas konvensional tersebut bisa menggunakan skema kontrak bagi hasil gross split, meskipun pelelangan dilakukan sebelum aturan terbit.

Dumai Refinery Maintenance Schedule Delayed

Maintenance schedule or turn around crude oil refineries in Dumai, Riau delayed from its original April 2017 to around June 2017, or after the moment of Ramadan and Eid al-Fitr.

Processing Director PT Pertamina Toharso say, all refineries have a maintenance schedule respectively. However, the Dumai refinery, estimated to be undergoing treatment in approximately June 2017. The reason, the maintenance schedule is adjacent to the moment of Ramadan and Eid Fitr.

Meanwhile, when the maintenance period, the refinery with a capacity of 175,000 barrels per day (bpd) was not in operation for a while. The duration of treatment time depends on the type of treatment plant and refinery capacity.

Currently, also takes care of the largest units in Balikpapan refinery with a capacity of 200,000 bpd. Treatments performed since 8 March to mid April 2017.

With these activities, it delayed maintenance activities one unit Balikpapan refinery with a capacity of 60,000 bpd. Supposedly, the unit has been receiving treatment since 2016. However, the company postponed it be April 2017 and back in retreat until 2018.

"This March is again TA (turn around) Balikpapan II, scheduled TA. It was a great [capacity], 200,000 bpd. That [capacity] of 60,000 bpd, will follow, "he said.

REFINERY TPPI

PT Trans Pacific Petroleum Refinery Indotama (TPPI) in Tuban, East Java, had planned to do the treatment in September 2017. However, it was still in talks due to maintenance costs despite treatment at the refinery was not done since 2006 or 11 years ago.

In the project, Pertamina has a stake of 48%. As a result, the company must bear the cost of the treatment plant.

"TA took charge, so TPPI submitted to us. Later, the scheme is in Mr. Arief as Chief Financial Officer. He applied in September," said Toharso. In general, the maintenance schedule refineries should be followed because of the pressure to produce will result in disruptions and refinery not can operate (unplanned shut down), noted that, throughout 2016 occurred unplanned shut down for 35 times including blackout or fault in the turbine system in Balikpapan refinery in December 2016.

The high unplanned shut down, due to frequent maintenance schedule backwards and risk factor management of the old refinery. It causes inefficient processing sector for several times to stop the operation.

      Meanwhile, refinery maintenance schedule should be adjusted to the availability of supply. Fuel imports in 2017 is targeted at 8 million barrels per month. However, the initial projection of 8 million barrels rise to 11 million barrels per month for their care Balongan refinery.

"Pursue the production front, but in fact it is a problem in the back," he said. The company owns and operates six refineries with a total capacity unit reached 1.0467 million million bpd. Some refineries such as refinery-III Plaju UP and UP-IV Cilacap refinery integrated with petrochemicals refineries, and produce petrochemical products

Jadwal Perawatan Kilang Dumai Diundur

Jadwal perawatan atau turn around kilang pengolahan minyak mentah di Dumai, Riau di tunda dari semula April 2017 menjadi sekitar Juni 2017 atau setelah momen Ramadan dan Idul fitri.

Direktur Pengolahan PT Pertamina Toharso mengatakan, semua kilang memiliki jadwal perawatan masing-masing. Namun, Kilang Dumai, diperkirakan baru akan menjalani perawatan pada sekitar Juni 2017. Alasannya, jadwal perawatan berdekatan dengan momen Ramadan dan Idul fitri.

Adapun, ketika masa perawatan, kilang yang berkapasitas 175.000 barel per hari (bph) itu tidak beroperasi untuk sementara. Durasi waktu perawatan kilang tergantung pada jenis perawatan dan kapasitas kilang.

Saat ini, juga berlangsung perawatan unit terbesar di Kilang Balikpapan berkapasitas 200.000 bph. Perawatan dilakukan sejak 8 Maret sampai pertengahan April 2017.

Dengan kegiatan tersebut, pihaknya menunda kegiatan perawatan salah satu unit Kilang Balikpapan yang berkapasitas 60.000 bph. Seharusnya, unit tersebut sudah mendapat perawatan sejak 2016. Namun, perseroan menundanya menjadi April 2017 dan kembali di undur hingga 2018.

“Maret ini yang lagi TA (turn around) Balikpapan II, scheduled TA. Itu yang besar [kapasitasnya], 200.000 bph. Yang [kapasitasnya] 60.000 bph, nanti menyusul,” katanya. 

KILANG TPPI

Kilang PT Trans Pacific Petroleum Indotama (TPPI) di Tuban, Jawa Timur pun rencananya dilakukan perawatan pada September 2017. Namun, hal itu masih dalam pembicaraan karena untuk perawatan membutuhkan biaya meskipun perawatan di kilang itu tidak dilakukan sejak 2006 atau 11 tahun lalu.

Dalam proyek tersebut, Pertamina memiliki saham sebesar 48 %. Alhasil, perseroan harus turut menanggung biaya perawatan kilang. 

"TA butuh biaya, makanya TPPI di serahkan ke kami. Nanti skemanya ada pada Tuan Arief  sebagai Direktur Keuangan. Dia mengajukan pada bulan September,” kata Toharso. Secara umum, jadwal perawatan kilang harus diikuti karena tekanan untuk memproduksi akan mengakibatkan gangguan dan kilang tidak bisa beroperasi (unplanned shut down). Tercatat, sepanjang 2016 terjadi unplanned shut down sebanyak 35 kali termasuk blackout atau kesalahan sistem pada turbin di Kilang Balikpapan pada Desember 2016. 

Tingginya unplanned shut down, dikarenakan jadwal perawatan yang sering mundur dan faktor risiko pengelolaan kilang tua. Hal itu menyebabkan sektor pengolahan tidak efisien karena beberapa kali harus berhenti operasi.

 Adapun, jadwal perawatan kilang harus disesuaikan dengan ketersediaan pasokan. Impor BBM pada 2017 ditargetkan sebesar 8 juta barel per bulan. Namun, proyeksi semula 8 juta barel naik menjadi 11 juta barel per bulan selama adanya perawatan Kilang Balongan.

“Kejar produksi di depan, tapi sebetulnya itu masalah di belakang,” katanya. Pertamina memiliki dan mengoperasikan enam unit kilang dengan kapasitas total mencapai 1.046.700 juta bph. Beberapa kilang minyak seperti kilang UP-III Plaju dan Kilang UP-IV Cilacap terintegrasi dengan kilang petrokimia, dan memproduksi produk-produk petrokimia

2016, Pertamina Record Earnings of US $ 3.15 M

PT Pertamina had a net profit audited amounted to US $ 3.15 billion in 2016, or 122% higher realization dibandlingkan 2015 recorded only US $ 1.42 billion. The profit was supported by the improved operating performance as well as efficiency and added value creation of the company through the Breakthrough Project 2016 program.

Pertamina Finance Director Arief Budiman said the increase is primarily driven by their Iaba efficiency. In the past year, the company managed to improve efficiency of up to US $ 2.67 billion through the Breakthrough Project 2016. This realization is higher than the target of US $ 2.13 billion.

However, the increase in profits is fundamentally due to the improved performance of the company. "As oil and gas production rose to 650 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day, the refinery yield to 77%, sales of products into 64.63 million kiloliters (KL), and the innovation of new products to gain new market share," he said in a press conference in Jakarta, Thursday (16/3).

In 2016, Pertamina posted a profit of $ 3.15 billion, up from previous years, at US $ 1.42 billion in 2015 and US $ 1.45 billion in 2014. Then, the company posted revenues of US $ 36.49 billion, down from the previous year's US $ 41.76 billion.

On the other hand, the cost of the company also declined to US $ 30.29 billion from US $ 37.84 billion in 2015. The company also recorded Ebitda margin continued to rise from 8.2% in 2014, became 12:28% in 2015, and reached 20, 73% on last year.

Financial performance is supported by an improved operating performance. Details, oil and gas production company Ialu year amounted to 650.01 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day consisting of 311 thousand barrels of oil per day (bpd) and gas of 1.96 billion cubic feet per day / bcfd. While gas sales recorded 708.68 trillion British thermal units, or 130% of the target, as well as gas transportation 522.1 BSCF.

Next of processing, the higher the result of high-value products (yield valuable product) into 4.596 77.76% rise compared with the achievements of 2015. On the other hand, the production costs become lower oil refineries 97.196, down 63% compared to 2015 se-large 103 , 6%. Then the sales volume of 64.63 million kiloliters of oil products, up 2.8% and LPG also increased 63% to 12.09 million KL.

From a profit of $ 3.15 billion, 70% was obtained from the company's downstream business. It is also likely to lead to growth in October-December 2016 muIai slowed. The price of oil began to rise and stable in the range of US $ 55 per barrel. While Pertamina assigned not only seek profit, but also maintain the price of fuel oil (BBM) to remain stable society.

Therefore this year, the portion of earnings calls Pertamina will be more balanced than the upstream and downstream sectors. This is because with the improvement in crude oil prices, the company's upstream business will also be more stable. On the other hand, the downstream sector of business it will be stable, not bolted as early 2016.

This year, it will continue to improve efficiency to boost financial performance. But admittedly Arief, efficiency gains will not be as big as last year. "Base her increasingly thin. In 2017 from the bottom up (efficiency) US $ 1 billion, as oil prices began to stabilize," he said.

Important stages of processing and petrochemical mega-projects also reached on three mega-projects that have been carried out during 2016. It also represents a concrete form of commitment Pertamina refinery capacity expansion to 2 million bpd in 2023. The details, the signing of the Joint Venture Development Agreement for RDMP Cilacap with Saudi Aramco, completions Basic Engineering Design and topping off fasililas occupancy RDMP workers to Balikpapan, as well as the Framework Agreement that followed the agreement with the joint Venture Agreement together with Rosneft Oil Company for GRR Tuban.

"Pertamina has through 2016 quite well, however symptoms that appear in the fourth quarter 2016 still have to watch out throughout 2017 with a variety of precaution which was launched and mandated by our shareholders." Said President Director of Pertamina Elia Massa Manik.

2016, Pertamina Bukukan Laba US$ 3,15 M

PT Pertamina berhasil membukukan laba bersih yang telah di audit sebesar US$ 3,15 miliar pada 2016 atau lebih tinggi 122% dibandlingkan realisasi 2015 yang tercatat hanya US$ 1,42 miliar. Perolehan laba tersebut didukung oleh kinerja operasi yang meningkat serta efisiensi dan penciptaan nilai tambah perusahaan melalui program Breakthrough Project 2016. 

Direktur Keuangan Pertamina Arief Budiman mengatakan, peningkatan Iaba utamanya didorong oleh adanya efisiensi. Pada tahun lalu, perseroan berhasil melakukan efisiensi hingga US$ 2,67 miliar melalui Breakthrough Project 2016. Realisasi ini lebih tinggi dari target yang ditetapkan yakni US$ 2,13 miliar.

Namun, peningkatan laba secara fundamental disebabkan oleh membaiknya kinerja perusahaan. “Seperti produksi minyak dan gas naik menjadi 650 ribu barel setara minyak per hari, yield kilang menjadi 77%, penjualan produk menjadi 64,63 juta kiloliter (KL), dan adanya inovasi-inovasi produk baru untuk mendapatkan pangsa pasar baru,” kata dia dalam jumpa pers di Jakarta, Kamis (16/3).

Pada 2016, Pertamina membukukan laba US$ 3,15 miliar, naik dari tahun-tahun sebelumnya yakni US$ 1,42 miliar pada 2015 dan US$ 1,45 miliar pada 2014. Kemudian, perseroan mencatatkan pendapatan US$ 36,49 miliar, turun dari tahun sebelumnya US$ 41,76 miliar. 

Di sisi lain, biaya perseroan juga berkurang menjadi US$ 30,29 miliar dari US$ 37,84 miliar pada 2015. Ebitda Marjin perusahaan juga tercatat terus naik dari 8,2% pada 2014, menjadi 12.28% pada 2015, dan mencapai 20,73% pada tahun lalu.

Kinerja keuangan ini didukung oleh perbaikan kinerja operasi. Rincinya, produksi migas perseroan tahun Ialu sebesar 650,01  ribu barel setara minyak per hari terdiri dari minyak 311 ribu barel per hari (bph) dan gas 1,96 billion cubic feet per day/bcfd. Sementara penjualan gas tercatat 708,68 triliun british thermal unit atau 130% dari target, serta transportasi gas 522,1 bscf. 

Selanjutnya dari pengolahan, semakin tingginya hasil produk bernilai tinggi (yield valuable product) menjadi 77.76% naik 4,596 dibandingkan dengan capaian tahun 2015. Di sisi lain, biaya pokok produksi kilang Pertamina semakin rendah menjadi 97,196 atau turun 63% dibandingkan tahun 2015 se-besar 103,6%. Kemudian volume penjualan produk BBM 64,63 juta KL atau naik 2,8% dan LPG juga meningkat 63% menjadi 12,09 juta KL.

Dari laba US$ 3,15 miliar, sebanyak 70% diperoleh dari bisnis hilir perseroan. Hal ini jugalah yang menyebabkan pertumbuhan pada Oktober-Desember 2016 muIai melambat. Pasalnya, harga minyak mulai naik dan stabil di kisaran US$ 55 per barel. Sementara Pertamina ditugaskan tidak hanya mencari untung, tetapi juga mempertahankan harga bahan bakar minyak (BBM) ke masyarakat tetap stabil.

Karenanya pada tahun ini, porsi laba Pertamina disebutnya akan lebih seimbang dari sektor hulu dan hilir. Hal ini mengingat dengan membaiknya harga minyak mentah, bisnis hulu perseroan juga akan semakin stabil. Di sisi lain, bisnis sektor hilir justru akan stabil, tidak melesat seperti awal 2016.

Pada tahun ini, pihaknya akan terus melakukan efisiensi untuk mendongkrak kinerja keuangan. Namun diakui Arief, perolehan efisiensi tidak akan sebesar tahun lalu. "Base-nya semakin tipis. Di 2017 dari bottom up (efisiensi) US$ 1 miliar, karena harga minyak mulai stabil," ujar dia.

Tahapan penting megaproyek pengolahan dan petrokimia juga dicapai pada tiga megaproyek yang sudah dijalankan selama 2016. Hal ini juga merupakan bentuk konkret komitmen pengembangan kapasitas kilang Pertamina menjadi 2 juta bph pada 2023. 

    Rincinya, penandatanganan Joint Venture Development Agreement untuk RDMP Cilacap dengan Saudi Aramco, penuntasan Basic Engineering Design dan topping off fasililas hunian pekerja untuk RDMP Balikpapan, serta kesepakatan Framework Agreement yang dilanjutkan dengan Joint Venture Agreement bersama Rosneft Oil Company untuk GRR Tuban.

“Pertamina telah melalui tahun 2016 dengan cukup baik, Namun gejala yang muncul pada kuartal ke-empat 2016 masih tetap harus diwaspadai sepanjang tahun 2017 dengan berbagai langkah antisipasi yang sudah dicanangkan dan diamanatkan pemegang saham." kata Direktur Utama Pertamina Elia Massa Manik.

Oil Still Flooded Asia

PRUNING OF PRODUCTION

Policy Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries, or OPEC to cut oil production world apparently had little influence in Asia. Carrying supplies to the region is still very high.

Thomson Reuters Oil Research and Forecasts declared oil production cuts by OPEC members and non-members such as Russia, so far only a small effect into Asia. Because, during the three months of the policy was done, supplies to Asia rose to record highs. 

    The institution explained, as many as 714 million barrels of oil have been shipped to Asia this month. The number was up 3% since December 2016, or when the policy of cuts announced. Meanwhile, Asia is the biggest market and has the largest oil consumption growth in the world.

"Pruning will not succeed in making the world oil supply is absorbed more quickly and end the problem of excess supply, unless there is a drastic increase in demand," said Leonardo Maugeri, a senior partner at the Harvard Kennedy School Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, on Friday (17/3 )

Maugeri worry as the region's largest oil consumer in the world, the surplus supply will depress oil prices and burden the producer countries. Meanwhile, according to the US Energy Information Administration (EIA), oil consumption in the Asia-Pacific region in 2017 is expected to reach 33.187 million barrels per day. The number increased from demand last year reached 33.030 million barrels per day.

Meanwhile, Thomson Reuters said, not only supplies from Russia and the Middle East are flooding Asia. Volume shipments also jumped from oil-producing countries in the Americas and Europe.

Rising supplies from the American region seen from the continued rise in US weekly oil reserves have continued to rise for four consecutive weekends until March 3. Before finally began to drop 237,000 barrels to 528.39 million barrels on March 10. As at the beginning of this month, the level of US oil production rose to 9.1 million barrels per day (bpd), which is the highest level since February 2016. In December 2016, the US consistently hold production at the level of 8.7 million bpd.

EIA estimates that US oil production in 2017 reached 9 million bpd, up from last year at 8.9 million bpd. In the next year, production is expected to increase again towards 9.7 million bpd. As a result of this phenomenon, more than 30 supertankers filled with oil still parked off the coast of Singapore and Malaysia, although the prices have increased.

PEMANGKASAN PRODUKSI

Minyak Masih Membanjiri Asia

Kebijakan Organisasi Negara-Negara Pengekspor Minyak atau OPEC untuk memangkas produksi minyak dunia rupanya tidak terlalu berpengaruh di Asia. Pasokan ke kawasan itu tercatat masih sangat tinggi. 

Thomson Reuters Oil Research and Forecasts menyatakan pemangkasan produksi minyak oleh negara anggota OPEC dan non-anggota seperti Rusia, sejauh ini hanya berpengaruh kecil ke Asia. Pasalnya, selama tiga bulan kebijakan itu dilakukan, pasokan ke Asia justru naik ke rekor tertingginya. Lembaga itu memaparkan, sebanyak 714 juta barel minyak telah dikapalkan ke Asia pada bulan ini. Jumlah itu naik 3% sejak Desember 2016, atau ketika kebijakan pemangkasan diumumkan. Adapun, Asia adalah pasar terbesar dan memiliki pertumbuhan konsumsi minyak terbesar di dunia.

“Pemangkasan tidak akan berhasil membuat pasokan minyak dunia diserap lebih cepat dan mengakhiri persoalan kelebihan pasokan, kecuali jika ada peningkatan permintaan yang drastis,” kata Leonardo Maugeri, senior patner di Harvard Kennedy School Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs, Jumat (17/3)

Maugeri khawatir sebagai kawasan konsumen minyak terbesar di dunia, surplus pasokan akan menekan harga minyak dunia dan membebani negara produsen. Adapun, berdasarkan data US Energy Information Administration (EIA) , konsumsi minyak di kawasan Asia-Pasifik pada 2017 diperkirakan bakal mencapai 33,187 juta barel per hari. Jumlah itu meningkat dari permintaan tahun lalu yang mencapai 33,030 juta barel per hari.

Sementara itu, Thomson Reuters menyebutkan, bukan hanya pasokan dari Rusia dan Timur tengah saja yang membanjiri Asia. Volume pengiriman juga melonjak dari negara produsen minyak di kawasan Amerika dan Eropa.

Meningkatnya pasokan dari kawasan Amerika terlihat dari terus naiknya cadangan mingguan minyak AS terus mengalami kenaikan selama empat pekan berturut-turut hingga 3 Maret. Sebelum akhirnya mulai turun 237.000 barel menjadi 528,39 juta barel pada 10 Maret. Adapun pada awal bulan ini, tingkat produksi minyak AS naik menjadi 9,1 juta barel per hari (bph), yang menjadi level tertinggi sejak Febmari 2016. Pada Desember 2016, AS konsisten menahan produksi di level 8,7 juta bph.

EIA memperkirakan produksi minyak AS pada 2017 mencapai 9 juta bph, atau naik dari tahun lalu sebesar 8,9 juta bph. Pada tahun depan, produksi diperkirakan kembali meningkat menuju 9,7 juta bph. Akibat dari fenomena tersebut, lebih dari 30 supertanker yang terisi minyak bumi masih terparkir di lepas pantai Singapura dan Malaysia, meskipun harga telah meningkat.  Minyak mentah untuk pengiriman Januari 2018 pun hanya 70 sen dolar AS lebih mahal dan pengiriman untuk Mei 2017.
