國際油價結束三日上漲趨勢

據(jù)3月26日路透社報道，油價在連續(xù)三天上漲后，周四出現(xiàn)下滑。截至格林威治時間04：41，布倫特原油期貨LCOc1下跌19美分，至每桶27.20美元，跌幅為0.7%。西德克薩斯中質(zhì)原油期貨CLc1下跌37美分，至每桶24.12美元，跌幅為1.5%。這兩種原油今年都下跌了約60%。

美國參議院星期三通過一項2萬億美元的法案，旨在幫助失業(yè)工人和受影響的行業(yè)渡過危機。但隨著需求快速萎縮和產(chǎn)出增加，石油前景依然黯淡。IHS Markit預計，第二季度全球石油需求將減少逾1400萬桶/天，導致石油庫存空前增加。IHS Markit金融服務副總裁羅杰?迪萬（Roger Diwan）稱："預計基本面壓力將集中在3月和4月，目前庫存累積將超過10億桶。"

與此同時，沙特計劃從5月起將石油日產(chǎn)量提高1000萬桶以上，這勢必會導致石油供應的增加。盡管油輪租賃成本上漲了50%-100%，石油公司和交易商仍爭相存儲原油和成品油。目前世界各地的油罐在迅速填滿，石油庫存不斷上升。

Oil prices slip as demand shrinks, but stimulus supports

Oil prices slipped on Thursday following three days of gains, with the prospect of rapidly dwindling demand due to coronavirus travel bans and lockdowns. Brent crude LCOc1 futures fell 19 cents, or 0.7%, to $27.20 a barrel by 0441 GMT, Reuters said.

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude CLc1 futures fell 37 cents, or 1.5%, to $24.12 a barrel. Both contracts are down about 60% this year. The U.S. Senate on Wednesday overwhelmingly backed a $2 trillion bill aimed at helping unemployed workers and industries hurt by the coronavirus epidemic. But with demand fast contracting and output rising, the outlook for oil remains dim. IHS Markit estimated global oil demand will contract by more than 14 million barrels per day (bpd) in the second quarter, leading to unprecedented inventory builds. "Expect fundamental pressure concentrated over March and April, an eight-week blitz period over which stocks currently stand to build north of 1 billion barrels cumulatively," said Roger Diwan, vice president of financial services at IHS Markit. At the same time, the collapse of a supply-cut pact between the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and other producers led by Russia, known as OPEC+, is set to boost oil supply, with Saudi Arabia planning to ship more than 10 million bpd from May. Oil stocks are already rising with tanks around the world filling fast despite a 50%-100% jump in lease costs, as oil companies and traders scramble to park unwanted crude and refined products.
