共产党接管南越与柬埔寨是对新加坡面向出口的炼油厂的一个打击,这些炼油厂本来早已面临着其他亚洲市场石油需求量的急剧下降。仅在1974年,新加坡向现已被废黜的南越阮文绍政权出口了价值二亿一千多万美元的航空燃料、柴油、汽油和其他石油产品共达二百万公吨以上。而现在至少已经暂时地丧失了南越这个市场。新加坡是东南亚最大的炼油中心,是世界第三大炼油中心,它的五家炼油厂并不是没有事先预料到印度支那市场的丧失。实际上这个地区在新加坡石油出口中的重要地位在过去若干年内一直在下降。1969—70年,南越消耗了新加坡石油产品出口量的一半,在

Its five refineries are not without prior anticipation of the loss of the Indochina market. In fact, the important position of the region in Singapore’s oil exports has been declining for several years. In 1969-70, South Vietnam consumed half of Singapore’s oil exports, at
