高盛：欧佩克将设法把油价压低到70美元以下

中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博新闻社1月10日伦敦报道，根据高盛集团所说，欧佩克将设法把油价上涨压低到每桶70美元以下来缓和油价上涨对全球经济和竞争对手供应的影响和冲击。

高盛说，由于欧佩克减产、需求增加以及供应的政治风险，油价日前在伦敦攀升到了每桶69美元以上的三年高点。如果油价继续上涨，欧佩克可能会看到一些不受欢迎的发展，例如包括美国页岩钻井商在内的竞争者的更大投资或者央行采取干预措施来抑制通货膨胀。

高盛银行大宗商品研究主管杰夫·柯里在法兰克福接受彭博社电视采访时说：“欧佩克成员国不希望看到这一点。如果油价在今后几天里突破每桶70美元推动市场回落，我们届时将看到更多的噪音和修辞。”

OPEC will try to talk prices down if oil tops $70, Goldman says

OPEC would try to talk down an oil rally above $70/bbl to cushion the impact on the global economy and rival supplies, according to Goldman Sachs Group Inc.

Oil has climbed to a three-year high above $69 in London amid OPEC production cuts, growing demand and political risks to supply. If prices keep rising, OPEC could see some unwelcome developments, such as greater investment by competitors including U.S. shale drillers, or central bank interventions to temper inflation, Goldman said.

“OPEC members do not want to see that,” Jeff Currie, the bank’s head of commodities research, said in a Bloomberg television interview from Frankfurt. “We’ll see more noise and rhetoric if prices trade above $70/bbl in coming days to push this market back down.”
