中国石化新闻网讯 据烃加工网站8月22日报道 随着原油进口持续走低，炼油厂限制燃料产量，美国石油库存正逐渐减少，但缓慢的下降步伐突显出石油市场再平衡的疲软性。 根据美国能源信息署（EIA）发布的报告称，上周原油和成品油总库存下降，为六周来第五次下降。 上周库存减少了500万桶，相比7月初创纪录的21.1亿桶减少了2300万桶。 原油（-400万桶）和汽油（-300万桶）库存下降，而馏分燃料油和喷气燃料库存保持不变，其他产品出现小幅上涨。 原油库存仍比五年季节平均水平高出4%，但这比7月中旬近6%的盈余有所改善。 汽油库存高于平均水平7%（但低于4月中旬的12%），馏分油库存高于平均水平24%（低于6月初的29%）。 燃料消耗量仍远低于正常水平，但通过限制原油加工，炼油厂正逐步减少过剩库存。 过去四周，供应国内市场的石油产品总量比五年平均水平低12%。与此同时，炼油厂的原油加工量低于平均水平15%。 尽管原油加工受到限制，但原油库存继续下降，部分原因是进口速度异常缓慢，尤其是从沙特阿拉伯进口。 原油库存正在缓慢恢复正常，但第二季度末进展慢于预期，主要原因是COVID-19流感大流行对消费的持续影响。 在周三发表的最新评估报告中，欧佩克+部长级联合监测委员会提请人们注意石油市场的“脆弱性”，尤其是在消费方面。 如果消费恢复速度继续慢于原先的预期，欧佩克+最终将不得不修改其生产计划，以便在更长时间内进一步削减产量。 王磊 摘译自 烃加工 原文如下： U.S. oil inventories point to fragile recovery U.S. petroleum inventories are gradually becoming less bloated as crude imports remain low and refiners limit fuel production, but the slow pace of the drawdown underscores the fragility of oil market rebalancing. Total stocks of crude oil and products fell last week, the fifth decline in six weeks, according to data from the U.S. Energy Information Administration (“Weekly petroleum status report”, EIA, Aug. 19). With a fall of 5 million barrels last week total stocks are now down by 23 million barrels from the record 2.11 billion barrels at the start of July. In line with previous weeks, inventory draws were again led by crude (-4 million barrels) and gasoline (-3 million) while distillate fuel oil and jet fuel stocks were unchanged and there were small builds in other products. Crude stocks are still 4% above the five-year seasonal average, but that is an improvement on the surplus of almost 6% in the middle of July. Gasoline stocks are 7% above average (but down from 12% in mid-April) and distillate stocks are 24% above average (down from 29% at the start of June). Fuel consumption remains far below normal, but by restricting crude processing, refiners are gradually working off excess stocks. The total volume of petroleum products supplied to the domestic market has been 12% below the five-year average over the past four weeks. Refinery crude processing, meanwhile, has been 15% below average. Despite restricted crude processing, crude stocks have continued to fall, partly owing to the unusually slow rate of imports, especially from Saudi Arabia. Oil inventories are slowly normalising, but progress has been slower than expected at the end of the second quarter, principally because of the lingering impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on consumption. In its latest assessment, published on Wednesday, the Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee of OPEC+ drew attention to the oil market’s “fragility”, especially on the consumption side. If consumption continues to recover more slowly than originally projected, OPEC+ will eventually have to revise its production schedule to cut output deeper for longer. |
