據《美洲潤滑油周刊》6月8日消息，與2021年同期相比，2022年第一季度美國潤滑油基礎油出口有所增長，這主要得益于對加拿大的出口增長。進口也有所上升，因為來自韓國和印尼的進口增加，幫助抵消了來自卡塔爾的進口下降。
美國能源情報署的數據顯示，今年前三個月，作為世界上最大基礎油出口國之一的美國向外國出口了890萬桶基礎油，高于去年第一季度的880萬桶。
美國進口的基礎油通常只有出口的一半，甚至更少，其中大部分是III類基礎油。第一季度美國基礎油進口量為390萬桶，高于2021年同期的380萬桶。韓國的供應量最大，為95.3萬桶，高于2021年第一季度的74.1萬桶，但仍顯著低于2018年第一季度的160萬桶峰值。SK潤滑油和S-Oil是韓國最大的基礎油出口商。

U.S. Exports, imports Up in First Quarter
base oil exports from the United States rose during the first quarter of 2022, compared to the same period of 2021, on the strength of increased sales into Canada. imports were also up as higher volumes from South Korea and Indonesia helped offset a decline from Qatar.
The U.S., one of the world’s largest base oil exporters, sent 8.9 million barrels to foreign countries during the first three months of this year, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration, up from 8.8 million barrels during the first quarter of last year.
The U.S. typically imports half as much base oil as it exports, or less, and most of the volume is Group III. First quarter imports were 3.9 million barrels, up from 3.8 million barrels during the same period of 2021. South Korea supplied the largest share – 953,000 barrels, which was up from 741,000 barrels during the first quarter of 2021 but still significantly lower than the recent first quartile peak of 1.6 million barrels in 2018. SK Lubricants and S-Oil are the biggest South Korean exporters.
