中国石化新闻网讯 据能源世界网9月16日报道，北达科他州的一位官员周二表示，7月份，北达科他州的石油日产量两个月首次跃升至100多万桶，但仍低于峰值水平，由于新冠疫情继续影响该州巴肯页岩油田的产量。 美国北达科他州矿产资源局(North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources)局长林恩?赫尔姆斯(Lynn Helms)援引最新数据表示，7月份原油产量增长约20%，从6月份的26807，731桶增至32252,017桶，即每天约104万桶。 他在该州月度石油更新报告中表示，8月石油产量预计也将上升，最高可达130万桶/天，但随着夏季驾驶淡季，以及近期美国基准油价下跌，这一趋势可能会逆转。 赫尔姆斯表示，直到2022年下半年，需求不会恢复到疫情前水平，因此未来几年我们将面对上下波动的这种情况。 在4月发生历史性价格暴跌之后，美国各地的石油产量大幅度削减，北达科他州的停产特别严重，该地区在2019年创下了超过140万桶/天的峰值。 赫尔姆斯表示，美国第二大页岩盆地巴肯（Bakken）目前的原油价格为每桶33美元，远低于疫情导致燃料需求下降之前的每桶60美元以上。 Helms表示，目前的价格不足以促使该州加大钻探力度，并指出该州的盈亏平衡成本高于其他页岩地层，如德克萨斯州的二叠纪盆地。除非我们有更好的价格，并且我们开始看到压裂机组和钻机回归，否则我们将开始看到产量继续下降。 目前该州只有大约10台油气钻机，赫尔姆斯称之为“历史低点”。 郝芬 译自 能源世界网 原文如下: North Dakota oil output rose about 20 per cent in July North Dakota oil production jumped to more than 1 million barrels a day in July for the first time in two months but remained below its peak as the coronavirus pandemic continued to hamper output in the state's Bakken shale field, a state official said on Tuesday. Crude oil output rose about 20 per cent to 32,252,017 barrels total for the month of July, or about 1.04 million barrels per day, from 26,807,731 barrels in June, North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources Director Lynn Helms said, citing the latest available data. August numbers are also expected to be on the upswing, and could reach as much as 1.3 million bpd, but the trend will likely reverse itself as the summer driving season fades and recent lower US benchmark oil prices take their toll, he said during the state's monthly oil update. "We don't see pre-COVID demand coming back until late 2022 so we're facing this for the next couple of years, this up and down," Helms said. Oil production across the country was slashed after a historic price crash in April and shut-ins have been particularly sharp in North Dakota, which produced a peak of more than 1.4 million bpd in 2019. The current price of crude produced in the Bakken, the second-largest US shale basin, is $33 a barrel, sharply down from more than $60 a barrel before the health crisis curtailed fuel demand, Helms said. Current prices are not enough to prompt more drilling in the state, Helms said, noting it has a higher break-even cost for production than in other shale formations, like Texas' Permian basin. "Unless we have much better prices and we start to see frack crews and drilling rigs, we'll start to see a decline," he said. There are currently only about 10 oil and gas drilling rigs in the state, which Helms called a "modern day low." |
