中国石化新闻网讯 据|Rigzone网站2018年7月17日纽约报道，美国洲际交易所计划推出一份将在休斯敦实物交付的二叠纪西德克萨斯州中质原油（WTI）的期货合同。 在美国经营全球金融和大宗商品市场交易和清算的洲际交易所在7月17日宣布了这些计划，而期货合同预计将在今年第三季度获得监管机构批准后推出并将提供直接进入休斯敦价格。期货合同将在麦哲伦中游合作伙伴公司麾下的东休斯敦终端进行实物交付。 洲际交易所负责石油市场的副总裁杰夫·巴布托在一份新闻稿中说：“以休斯顿为交易中心的美国墨西哥湾海岸是来自二叠纪盆地基于WTI的北美原油基准的天然交付点。近期库欣基地的WTI和布伦特原油之间的价差提醒我们，尽管库欣是美国中部地区当地原油基本面的一个标志，但它在水运美国原油定价上却存在分歧。我们正在与市场合作，提供一个可靠和可预测的与全球原油价格相关并可为国内外买家提供的质量规格和地点。 全球著名能源咨询公司伍德麦肯兹（Wood Mackenzie）北美原油市场高级分析师约翰·科尔曼在发给RZNews.com的一份声明中表示：“由于美国原油出口的故事继续展开，美国轻质低硫原油的沿海定价点在未来几年里将更加重要。” 伍德麦肯兹预计，到2023年，美国大陆石油日产量将超过1100万桶，这个产量使美国成为全球最大的石油生产国。 李峻 编译自 RZNews.com 原文如下： ICE to Launch Permian WTI Crude Oil Futures Contract The Intercontinental Exchange Inc. (ICE) has plans to launch a Permian West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil futures contract with physical delivery in Houston. ICE, which operates global exchanges and clearinghouses for financial and commodity markets in the United States, announced the plans July 17. The contract is expected to launch 3Q 2018, subject to regulatory review, and will provide direct access to Houston prices. The contract will have physical delivery at Magellan Midstream Partners, L.P.’s East Houston terminal. “The U.S. Gulf Coast, with Houston as its trading hub, is the natural delivery point for a North American crude oil benchmark based on WTI from the Permian Basin,” Jeff Barbuto, ICE’s vice president of oil markets, said in a release. “The recent price divergence between Cushing-based WTI and Brent is a reminder that although Cushing is a marker for local crude fundamentals in the midcontinent, it diverges for pricing waterborne U.S. crude. We are working with the market to provide a reliable and predictable quality specification and location that is relevant to global crude pricing, and accessible for domestic and foreign buyers alike.” John Coleman, Wood Mackenzie’s senior analyst for North American crude oil markets said in a statement sent to Rigzone that “a coastal pricing point for U.S. light sweet crude will be much more relevant in coming years as the U.S. crude export story continues to unfold…” Wood Mackenzie estimates onshore Lower 48 production to exceed 11 million barrels per day by 2023, positioning the U.S. to become the world’s largest oil producer.
