沙特宣布將進(jìn)一步減產(chǎn)

據(jù)CNBC網(wǎng)站5月10日消息：周一，沙特阿能源部長表示該國旨在提供額外的自愿減產(chǎn)以支持全球市場后，油價(jià)逆轉(zhuǎn)上漲。

布倫特原油期貨上漲26美分，至每桶31.23美元，美國西德克薩斯中質(zhì)原油期貨上漲43美分，至每桶25.18美元。

然而，由于對(duì)供應(yīng)持續(xù)過剩的擔(dān)憂，加上疫情造成的經(jīng)濟(jì)低迷，抵消了全球一些頂級(jí)產(chǎn)油國減產(chǎn)的支持，油價(jià)漲幅受到限制。

過去兩周，由于各國放寬了商業(yè)和社會(huì)封鎖措施，以及燃料需求小幅回升，所以兩個(gè)基準(zhǔn)指數(shù)均有所上漲。盡管如此，人們?nèi)該?dān)心2021年需求將保持疲弱。

全球范圍內(nèi)石油流動(dòng)的減少，使石油需求下降了約30%，同時(shí)，石油庫存仍在增加。對(duì)美國存儲(chǔ)空間即將耗盡的擔(dān)憂導(dǎo)致WTI價(jià)格上月跌至負(fù)值，促使一些美國生產(chǎn)商縮減產(chǎn)量。

根據(jù)能源服務(wù)公司貝克休斯上周五公布的數(shù)據(jù)，在截至5月8日的一周內(nèi)，全球最大產(chǎn)油國的石油和天然氣鉆井平臺(tái)數(shù)量降至74個(gè)，創(chuàng)1940年以來的最低紀(jì)錄。

東京三菱公司高級(jí)風(fēng)險(xiǎn)經(jīng)理托尼·努南表示:“人們對(duì)美國停產(chǎn)的速度感到驚訝，這正是價(jià)格支撐所需?！?/span>

Oil turns positive as Saudi Arabia says it will reduce output further

Oil prices reversed gains and turned positive on Monday after Saudi Arabia’s energy minister said the kingdom aims to provide additional voluntary cuts in an effort to support global markets.

Brent crude futures gained 26 cents to trade at $31.23 per barrel, U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures gained 43 cents to trade at $25.18 per barrel.

Gains were capped, however, as concerns over a persistent glut and economic gloom caused by the coronavirus pandemic combined to cancel out support from supply cuts at some of the world’s top producers.

Both benchmarks have notched up gains over the past two weeks as countries have eased business and social lockdowns imposed to cope with the coronavirus and fuel demand has rebounded modestly. Oil production worldwide is also declining.

But possible signs of a second wave of coronavirus infections in northeast China and South Korea worried investors even as more countries started to pivot towards easing pandemic restrictions in moves that could support oil demand.

Goldman Sachs analysts said there was still concern that demand will stay weak in 2021, with worries about a second wave of Covid-19 cases and only a modest increase in personal or corporate travel.

Global oil demand has plummeted by about 30% as the coronavirus pandemic curtailed movement across the world, building up inventories globally.

Fears that the United States is running out of storage space triggered WTI prices crashing into negative territory last month, prompting some U.S. producers to slash output.

In a sign of that impact, the number of operating oil and gas rigs in the world’s largest oil producer fell to 74 in the week to May 8, a record low according to data released on Friday from energy services firm Baker Hughes going back to 1940.

“People are surprised by how quickly the U.S. is shutting in production and that’s exactly what we need in order to support prices,” said Tony Nunan, a senior risk manager at Mitsubishi Corp in Tokyo.

“There’s another 10 days before the June contract expires ... if the WTI contract can avoid a crash going into expiry, hopefully we’ve seen the bottom.”
