中国石化新闻网讯 据ICIS网12月18日消息 纽约商品交易所WTI原油期货周二下跌3.64美元/桶，至46.24美元/桶，使得美国油价跌至17个月来的最低水平。 油价下跌的原因是担心石油供应会延长，同时担心经济可能放缓。 美国能源信息局（EIA）预计，今年年底前美国七个主要页岩盆地的石油产量将超过800万桶/日。 俄罗斯石油产量本月也将达到创纪录的水平，而欧佩克宣布的减产要到下个月才能生效。 对全球经济增长可能放缓的担忧也给石油期货带来了压力。投资者预计，2019年经济增长将放缓，从而鼓励原油价格下跌。 市场正在密切关注美联储周三关于利率的声明。市场预期美联储将再次加息，并将监测声明中所使用的措辞，以寻找银行是否打算在2019年进一步加息的指示。 王磊 摘译自 ICIS 原文如下： NYMEX WTI crude futures declined $3.64/bbl to $46.24/bbl on Tuesday, sending US oil prices to their lowest level in 17 months. The decline was driven by fears of lengthening oil supplies along with worries of a possible economic slowdown. Oil production from seven major US shale basins is expected to exceed 8m bbl/day before the end of the year, according to the Energy Information Administration (EIA). Russian oil output is also poised to reach record levels this month while announced production cuts by OPEC will not take effect until next month. Concerns of a possible slowdown in global economic growth also pressured oil futures. Investors are anticipating a slowdown in economic growth in 2019, encouraging a sell-off in the crude complex. The market is closely watching the US Federal Reserve’s announcement on Wednesday regarding interest rates. The market anticipates another rate hike by the Fed and will be monitoring the language used in the announcement for indications as to whether or not the bank intends to implement further rate increases in 2019.
