新世纪我国石油的消费和经济发展

改革开放20年，我国经济迅速发展，石油消费和一次能源消费总量均翻了一番，成为世界能源消费大国，同时也由一个石油出口国变成一个石油进口大国。随着经济发展、产业结构调整、节能和技术进步，未来几年我国能源消费将相对稳步增长，但增幅不大。但是，随着工业化和城镇化进程的加快以及汽车时代的逐步到来，我国对石油需求将呈强劲增长态势，石油进口量将逐步增加。为减少经济增长对能源和石油的依赖程度，要坚持节约和开发并重，抑制石油需求过度膨胀，促进可持续发展。

China's oil and economics trends in the new century

China's oil consumption and primary energy consumption doubled after China kept open for over 20 years. China becomes a net oil importer from a net exporter. Fueled by economic growth, industrial restructuring and advances in technologies and energy saving technology, domestic energy consumption is expected to maintain steady and moderate increase. However, increasingly fast industrialization and urbanization and coming auto era are drivers of domestic oil demand. China's oil demand is expected to grow significantly and imports will increase gradually. To relieve reliance of economic growth on oil and energy, both energy saving and development should be given priority to avoid excessive oil demand growth and maintain sustainable development.
