中国石化新闻网讯 据3月12日今日油价报道,美国石油行业代表向政府提议,即购买廉价原油,以补充战略石油储备。这也将从严重供过于求的市场中减少数百万桶石油,并可能帮助到美国的石油生产商。 知情人士称,行业游说人士表示,在油价从上周的50美元/桶跌至本周的30美元/桶的情况下,填补战略石油储备可能是个好主意。 美国于上世纪70年代成立战略石油储备,当时阿拉伯的石油禁运在美国引发了一场燃料危机。截至2020年3月6日,共储备有6.35亿桶原油,其中包括2.503亿桶低硫原油和3.847亿桶重质原油。 战略石油储备通常在紧急情况下使用,政府从中释放原油,以缓解飓风或战争等事件造成的油价飙升。而当下的情况是反过来的——买低油价来填补战略石油储备,并从市场上转移几千万桶石油,以缓解供过于求的局面。未来几个月,供过于求的局面将变得更加严峻。 战略石油储备的额定存储容量为7.135亿桶,目前还有7800万桶的储能。 王佳晶 摘译自 今日油价 原文如下: U.S. Discusses Buying Oil For SPR To Help Shale Drillers Oil industry representatives have pitched for discussion to the U.S. Administration the idea that Washington buy cheap crude oil to replenish the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, which would also remove millions of barrels of oil from the heavily oversupplied market and may help U.S. producers that could turn out to be the first victim of the Saudi-Russian oil price war. Oil industry lobbyists have told the Trump Administration that it might be a good idea to buy the dip with oil prices in the $30s this week compared to $50 last week, in order to fill the SPR, Bloomberg reported on Wednesday, quoting three people with knowledge of the matter. The Strategic Petroleum Reserve, set up in the 1970s when the Arab oil embargo created a fuel crisis in the United States, held a total of 635 million barrels of crude oil as of March 6, 2020, including 250.3 million barrels of sweet crude and 384.7 million barrels of sour crude oil. The SPR has been typically used in times of emergencies with Administrations releasing crude oil from it to relieve price spikes in events such as hurricanes or wars. Now the idea goes the other way round — buy the dip to fill the SPR and remove some tens of millions of barrels of oil from the market, to ease the glut which is set to become even greater in the coming months as Saudi Arabia and Russia are each determined to see who will blink first in this oil price war. The SPR has authorized storage capacity of 713.5 million barrels, so it still has the capacity to hold another 78 million barrels before it is full. |
