1. Economic Daily: The "red line" of 1 billion tons is a bottom line
Recently, the four departments jointly issued the "Guiding Opinions on Promoting the Green Innovative and High-quality Development of the Oil Refining Industry", which clearly stated that by 2025, the domestic crude oil one-time processing capacity will be controlled within 1 billion tons. The introduction of the new policy is conducive to curbing the disorderly expansion of refining capacity, avoiding excessive construction and waste of resources, and promoting the transformation and upgrading of the industry to extend and strengthen the chain. In short, the "red line" of 1 billion tons is a bottom line, which is related to the realization of the "dual carbon" goal and the high-quality and sustainable development of the economy and society. While strictly controlling the new refining capacity, the only way is to promote the transformation and upgrading of the industry.
