China's Zhenhai refinery exports first diesel, jet fuel to Europe

SINGAPORE (Reuters) - Sinopec Corp unit Zhenhai Refining & Chemical Corp has exported diesel and jet fuel to Europe for the first time, Sinopec said.

The Zhenhai plant, China’s largest, loaded 40,000 tons of diesel fuel in early February destined for Rotterdam port, the state energy group said on its social media blog. The plant also loaded 40,000 tons of jet fuel in late January destined for Rotterdam, it said.

For all of 2018, the 440,000 barrels-per-day Zhenhai refinery exported a record 840,000 tonnes of diesel, while jet fuel exports were at a near-record 1.08 million tons.
