中国石化新闻网讯据普氏能源资讯4月1日东京报道，根据日本经济产业省1日在东京提出的预测，日本除用于发电以外的石油产品需求在2016-2017财政年度（4月-3月）内预计同比将下降1.6%至1.69348亿千升或292万桶/天。

日本经济产业省的2016-2017财政年度预测是其5年石油需求展望的一部分。由于核电站重新启动的不确定性，因此，这个预测不包括发电的燃料需求。

根据日本经济产业省石油市场趋势工作组1日批准其下属油气委员会提出的预测，日本除用于发电以外的石油产品需求在今后的5年里将平均年减1.7%，日需求量到2020-2021财年预计将下降到1.57761亿千升（272万桶/天）。

至于2016-2017财年，除了煤油和柴油，日本总的石油产品需求量同比将呈现下降。

Japan's 2016-17 non-power oil demand to fall 1.6% on year to 2.92 mil b/d

Tokyo (Platts)--1 Apr 2016

Japan's domestic oil product demand except for power generation is forecast to fall 1.6% year on year to 169.348 million kl, or 2.92 million b/d, in fiscal 2016-17 (April-March), according to a forecast presented by the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry Friday.

METI's 2016-17 forecast is part of its five-year oil demand outlook based in kiloliters, which excludes a forecast for fuel oil demand for power generation due to uncertainty over nuclear plant restarts.

Under the forecast approved Friday by the ministry's oil market trends working group under its oil and natural gas subcommittee, Japan's oil product demand except for power generation is to fall an average 1.7% annually over the next five years to 157.761 million kl (2.72 million b/d) in 2020-21.

For fiscal 2016-17, Japan's overall oil product demand will decline on the year except for kerosene and gasoil.
