美国---亚洲木屑颗粒出口市场概况 US Forest Product Exports to Asia

工业木屑颗粒行业正在以惊人的速度发展。2001年全球生产的颗粒总量约为200万吨（MT），2015年约为2800万吨。随着全球市场的不断发展，现在是按地区和类型分析其他美国森林产品出口情况的好时机。这些数据可以告诉我们很多关于原料利用的信息，并且有助于揭示国外市场生物质和木屑颗粒增长的新机会。 随着巴黎气候协议的指令开始生效，对工业木屑颗粒的新需求正在向前发展，亚洲市场---特别是韩国和日本市场---为美国生产商带来新的机遇。

The industrial wood pellet industry is catching its breath after an astounding surge since the turn of the millennium. Global production of pellets totaled roughly 2 million metric tons (MT) in 2001, and roughly 28 million MT in 2015. As this market continues to evolve globally, it’s a good time to step back and analyze other U.S. forest product exports by region and type. This data can tell us a lot about raw material utilization, and help uncover new opportunities for biomass and wood pellet growth in foreign markets. New demand for industrial wood pellets is on the horizon, as directives from the Paris climate agreement begin to take effect, and Asian markets—particularly the South Korean and Japanese markets—represent new opportunities for U.S. Producers.   

在2016年美国大陆出口约1900万吨木屑颗粒、木材、原木和木片，其中有790万吨（41％）为原木。美国西部出口580万吨（74％）原木，南部出口140万吨，北部出口60万吨。然而，美国出口的绝大多数原木（790万吨中的740万吨）都销往了亚洲市场。大部分通过西部港口出口，由于该地区的高品质木材，更靠近亚洲。

Of the approximately 19 million MT of wood pellets, lumber, logs and wood chips exported from the continental U.S. in 2016, 7.9 million MT (41 percent) were logs (Fig. 1). In total, 5.8 million MT (74 percent) of logs were exported out of the West, 1.4 million MT out of the South, and 0.6 million MT out of the North, to other countries. However, most logs (7.4 of 7.9 million MT) exported out of the U.S. were destined for Asian markets. The majority were exported out of western ports due to the region’s high-quality timber and closer proximity to Asia.

按量计木屑颗粒是美国出口第二个最重要的木制品，总计470万吨。 超过99％是从南部运往欧洲港口。

On a volume basis, wood pellets were the next most significant wood product export from the U.S., totaling 4.7 million MT. Over 99 percent of this volume was shipped from the South and received into European ports.

在美国350万吨木材出口中，200万吨（57％）通过南部港口出货，80万吨（22％）从北部港口运出，70万吨（21％）从西部港口运出。美国出口了大约290万吨木片，其中170万吨（59％）通过西部港口，主要运往日本。另有110万吨（3％）从南部港口出口。

Of the 3.5 million MT of U.S. lumber exports, 2 million MT (57 percent) were shipped via South ports, 0.8 million MT (22 percent) were shipped from North ports and 0.7 million MT (21 percent) were shipped from West ports. Approximately 2.9 million MT of wood chips were exported from the U.S., of which 1.7 million MT (59 percent) were shipped via West ports, primarily to Japan. An additional 1.1 million MT (3 percent) were exported from South ports.

亚洲国家是美国木制品出口的重要市场，特别是出口到中国、日本和越南的原木和木材。对于这三个港口地区，原木和木材出口在2016年是亚洲国家最重要的出口。唯一的例外就是西部木片出口到日本。

Asian countries are important markets for U.S. wood product exports, especially logs and lumber shipped to China, Japan and Vietnam. For each of the three port regions, log and lumber exports represented the most significant exports to Asian countries in 2016 (Fig. 2). The only exception to this was wood chip exports to Japan out of the West.
