飓风导致墨西哥湾油气产量分别减少82%和59%

中国石化新闻网讯 据能源世界网8月30日休斯敦报道，根据美国内政部发布的数据显示，美国能源公司周六继续向美国墨西哥湾的海上石油和天然气生产设施配备人员。

根据数据显示，截至中午，有122处设施被重新使用。 原油产量下降了82％，即每天减少150万桶，天然气产量下降了59％，即每天减少16亿立方英尺。

该部门表示，周六美国墨西哥湾有189座平台或钻机无人值守，低于周三的310座无人设施。

美国墨西哥湾近海油井的产量占美国原油总产量的17%，天然气总产量的5%。

因飓风劳拉本周关闭了6家沿海炼油厂，约占美国石油加工能力的12%。那些没有严重受损的核电站已经采取措施重新启动运营。

Hurricane-related shut-ins curb 82% of oil, 59% of gas output in U.S. Gulf of Mexico

U.S. energy companies on Saturday continued to restaff offshore oil and gas production facilities in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, according to data released by the U.S. Department of Interior.

There were 122 facilities that were reoccupied as of midday, the data showed. Crude oil production was off 82%, or 1.5 million barrels per day (bpd) and natural gas production was down 59%, or 1.6 billion cubic feet per day.

There were 189 platforms or drilling rigs in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico that remain unmanned on Saturday, the department said, down from 310 unoccupied facilities on Wednesday.

U.S. Gulf of Mexico offshore wells account for 17% of total U.S. crude oil production and 5% of total U.S. natural gas production.

Hurricane Laura shut six coastal refineries this week accounting for about 12% of U.S. oil processing capacity. Those without significant damage have taken steps to restart operations.
