???? 據路透社3月15日赫爾辛基報道，芬蘭生物燃料生產商和煉油商納斯特(Neste)周一表示，已選擇荷蘭鹿特丹港作為其下一個可再生產品精煉廠。

????新工廠的規模將與該公司目前正在新加坡擴建的15億歐元(17.9億美元)煉油廠相當，該公司稱這是迄今為止最大規模的投資。

????該公司首席執行官彼得·瓦納克（Peter Vanacker）對路透社表示，如果鹿特丹煉油廠如期完工，其投資成本、產能和制成品將與Neste在新加坡建造的煉油廠相當。

????新加坡的擴張規模預計為15億歐元(17.9億美元)。

????新加坡分公司生產用于道路和航空運輸的可再生燃料，以及用于聚合物和化學品的可再生碳氫化合物，主要來自廢棄食用油、食品行業的動物脂肪和植物油加工殘留物等廢物和殘留物。

????Neste表示，預計將在2021年底或2022年初做出最終投資決定。瓦納克對路透社表示，公司正在密切關注溫室氣體排放的監管規定。

????他表示:“這些都是大投資，所以必須能夠大批量出售產品，例如出售給我們正參與討論并制定計劃的航空業?！?/p>

????Neste表示，成本顯著降低是鹿特丹取代芬蘭波爾沃成為歐洲煉油廠選址的原因。

????該一決定將令芬蘭政府感到失望，芬蘭政府擁有該公司44.2％的股份，并希望新的煉油廠能為芬蘭帶來就業和稅收收入。

????Finland's Neste plans $1.8 billion Rotterdam biofuel refinery

????Finnish biofuel producer and oil refiner Neste has chosen the Dutch port of Rotterdam for its next renewable products refinery, it said on Monday.

????The new plant will be around the same size as the 1.5 billion euro ($1.79 billion) refinery expansion it is currently building in Singapore, which the company described as its biggest investment so far.

????The Rotterdam refinery, if it goes ahead, will be similar to one Neste is building in Singapore in terms of investment costs, production capacity and manufactured products, Chief Executive Peter Vanacker told Reuters.?

????The Singapore expansion is estimated at 1.5 billion euros ($1.79 billion).

????The Singapore unit produces renewable fuels for road and air transportation as well as renewable hydrocarbon for polymers and chemicals, mainly from waste and residues such as used cooking oil, animal fat from food industry and residues from vegetable oil processing.

????Neste said it expects to make a final investment decision in late 2021 or early 2022. Vanacker told Reuters that the company is closely monitoring regulation on greenhouse gas emissions.

????“These are big investments so you have to be able to sell large volumes for example to the aviation industry that is now being discussed and we’re participating in those discussions,” he said.

????Significantly lower costs were the reason Rotterdam was chosen as the location for a European refinery over Finland’s Porvoo, Neste said.

????The decision will come as a disappointment to the Finnish government which owns 44.2% of the company and had hoped the new refinery would bring jobs and tax income to Finland.
