美國鉆井平臺數(shù)量再次下降

據(jù)今日油價7月24日報道，貝克休斯公司（Bakerhughes）上周五報告稱，本周美國石油和天然氣鉆井平臺數(shù)量再次下降，減少了2座，達(dá)到251座，這是現(xiàn)役鉆井平臺數(shù)量連續(xù)第二十次下降。

目前，石油和天然氣鉆井平臺總數(shù)比去年同期減少695座。

根據(jù)貝克休斯公司（Baker Hughes）的數(shù)據(jù)，本周石油鉆井平臺數(shù)量增加了1臺，使總數(shù)達(dá)到181臺，而去年同期為776臺。

本周美國共有68個鉆井平臺在役。相比之下，一年前有169個鉆井平臺。

為了將活躍的鉆井平臺與供應(yīng)數(shù)據(jù)相比較，EIA對美國石油產(chǎn)量的估計在截至7月17日的一周內(nèi)上升至每天1110萬桶。盡管這意味著較前一周增加了10萬桶/日，但美國的石油產(chǎn)量仍比美國產(chǎn)量的歷史最高水平低200萬桶/日。

本周，加拿大的鉆井平臺總數(shù)增加了10個，達(dá)到了42個活躍的鉆井平臺。目前，加拿大的石油和天然氣鉆井平臺同比下降85%。

Is The Bottom Finally In Sight For U.S. Drilling Rigs?

Baker Hughes reported on Friday that the number of oil and gas rigs in the US fell again this week, by 2, to 251, marking the twentieth straight loss in the number of active rigs.

The total oil and gas rigs are now sitting at 695 fewer than this time last year.

The number of oil rigs increased for the week by 1 rig, according to Baker Hughes data, bringing the total to 181—compared to 776 active rigs this time last year.

The total number of active gas rigs in the United States fell this week by 3 rigs, landing at 68 total rigs. This compares to 169 rigs a year ago.

To compare active rigs with supply figures, the EIA’s estimate for oil production in the United States rose for week ending July 17—the last week for which there is data, to 11.1 million barrels of oil per day. While this represents a 100,000-bpd increase from the week prior, oil production in the United States is still 2 million bpd less than the all-time high for US production.

Canada’s overall rig count rose this week by 10, settling at 42 active rigs. Oil and gas rigs in Canada are now down 85 year on year.

Oil prices were trading down on the day in Tuesday morning, still under pressure from reports earlier in the week that showed an unexpected increase in U.S. crude oil inventories. At 12:33pm EDT, WTI was trading down 0.85% at $40.72—essentially flat on the week. Brent was trading down $0.48 at $42.86 nearly $0.40 less than this time last week and a loss of 1.11% on the day.
