8月份北达科他州的石油产量增长12%

    中国石化新闻网讯 据油气新闻10月19日消息称，北达科他州的监管机构表示，8月份，该州的石油产量增长了12%，达到每日116万桶，因为在今年早些时候产量下降后，较多的油井和钻井平台恢复了生产。

    由于油价在4月份跌至负值区间，该州的生产商关闭了约5000口日产30万桶的油井。

    美国原油产量虽然仍远低于1月份创下的每日1300万桶的峰值，但在过去几个月中，美国原油期货一直保持在每桶40美元左右，其产量一直在逐步上升。

    美国石油产量的增加加大了欧佩克下个月将采取何种行动的不确定性。欧佩克及其盟友定于11月30日举行会议，以审查一项旨在减少生产限制的计划，明年日产量可能增加200万桶。

    国家监管机构北达科他州矿产资源部报道，北达科他州的原油产量从7月份的每天104万桶上升到116万桶。该州2019年的最高产量为140万桶/天。

    North Dakota’s oil output up 12% in Aug

    North Dakota’s oil production rose about 12% to 1.16 million barrels per day (bpd) in August as more wells and drilling rigs resumed production after a drop earlier this year, the state’s regulator said.

    Producers in the state shut about 5,000 wells pumping 300,000 bpd as prices tumbled into negative territory in April.

    Output in the United States, while still well below the peak 13 million bpd reached in January, has been gradually rising with U.S. crude futures holding around $40 a barrel over the past several months.

    The additional U.S. oil production is adding to uncertainty over what the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries will do next month. OPEC and allies are scheduled to meet Nov. 30 to review a plan to ease curbs on production, potentially adding 2 million bpd next year.

    North Dakota’s crude oil output rose to 1.16 million bpd from 1.04 million bpd in July, state regulator North Dakota Department of Mineral Resources reported. Peak production in the state was 1.4 million bpd in 2019.
