中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社3月1日卡尔加里，艾伯塔省报道，加拿大主要产油省份艾伯塔省(Alberta)周四将企业4月份的原油日产量提高至366万桶，较1月份的上限增加了10万桶。 去年年底，石油出口管道的拥堵导致储油罐里的原油积压，并导致该省原油价格跌至创纪录低点。经济下滑促使艾伯塔省政府下令从1月1日起临时减产，每日减产32.5万桶。 艾伯塔省总理Rachel Notley在一份声明中表示，该省现在正在提高限额，因为储存的石油数量在减少，价格也在走高。随着天气变暖，用于帮助稠油流动的稀释剂减少，因此管道输送能力也可能增加。 “临时限制生产的决定得到了公平公正的实施，我们的计划正在努力阻止我们的资源被廉价出售，”Notley说。 加拿大原油与美国原油的折价大幅收窄。根据经纪商Net Energy的数据，周四加拿大西部的基准重质原油选择在阿尔伯塔省hardisty进行3月份交割，最后一次交易价格为每桶12.65美元。去年10月，每桶石油的折扣超过了50美元。 2月和3月的产量定为每日336万桶，较1月的上限增加7.5万桶。最新调整意味着，4月份石油生产商的日产量将再增加2.5万桶。 对许多小型生产商来说，石油减产避免了灾难。这些生产商在某些情况下以低于成本的价格出售原油，但不受赫斯基能源(Husky Energy)和森科能源(Suncor Energy)等大型公司的欢迎。减产不适用于日产量低于1万桶的小公司。 李方征 编译自 路透社 原文如下： Oil-producing province Alberta eases April crude production limit Canada’s main oil-producing province of Alberta on Thursday raised the amount of crude that companies can produce in April to 3.66 million barrels per day, an increase of 100,000 bpd from the limit imposed in January. Late last year congestion on oil export pipelines backed up crude in storage tanks and sent crude prices in the province tumbling to record lows. The slump prompted the Alberta government to mandate temporary production cuts effective Jan. 1 that took 325,000 bpd out of the market. The province is now raising the limit because the amount of oil in storage is shrinking and prices are stronger, Alberta premier Rachel Notley said in a statement. Pipeline transportation capacity could also increase because less diluent, used to help viscous heavy crude flow, is needed as the weather warms up. “The decision to temporarily limit production was applied fairly and equitably, and our plan is working to stop allowing our resource to be sold for pennies on the dollar,” Notley said. The discount on Canadian crude versus U.S. barrels has narrowed dramatically. On Thursday the benchmark heavy grade Western Canada Select for March delivery in Hardisty, Alberta, last traded at $12.65 a barrel below U.S. crude, according to brokers Net Energy. Last October the discount was more than $50 a barrel. Production for February and March was set at 3.63 million bpd, adding 75,000 bpd from the January limit. The latest adjustment means producers can increase output by another 25,000 bpd in April. The oil cuts averted disaster for many small producers that were selling crude in some cases below cost but were unpopular with some larger companies like Husky Energy and Suncor Energy that had benefited from running cheap crude through their refineries. Curtailments do not apply to small companies producing less than 10,000 bpd.
