中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社12月2日报道,市场正在等待欧佩克+就石油产量达成协议,石油价格周三保持稳定。英国成为第一个批准使用新冠肺炎疫苗的国家,这增加了未来石油需求复苏的希望。 美国石油库存意外增加,消息人士称,欧佩克产油国、俄罗斯和其他盟友将2021年石油产量政策的谈判从周二推迟到周四,造成了不确定性,令油价承压。 格林尼治标准时间10:12,布伦特原油期货下跌9美分,跌幅0.2%,至每桶47.33美元,西德克萨斯中质原油下跌11美分,跌幅0.3%,至每桶44.44美元。 美国石油学会的行业数据显示,上周美国原油库存增加410万桶,而路透社分析师的预期为增加240万桶。 由于新冠肺炎疫情打击了燃料需求,欧佩克+2020年宣布每日减产770万桶。此前,外界普遍预计,随着新冠肺炎感染病例激增,减产期限将延长至2021年1月至3月。但阿联酋本周表示,尽管该国愿意支持延长减产期限,但难以将同样的减产规模延续到2021年。 石油经纪商PVM的斯蒂芬•布伦诺克(Stephen Brennock)表示:“有关欧佩克内部不和的报道破坏了市场普遍的乐观情绪。市场预期仍倾向于将当前的减产幅度延长至2021年第一季度。值得一提的是,如果减产规模低于这一水平,将引发一场残酷的抛售狂潮”。 周三,英国成为首个批准使用新冠肺炎疫苗的西方国家,领先于美国和欧洲大陆,这可能是人们迈向恢复正常生活的第一步,也将推动石油消费恢复到危机爆发前的水平。 王佳晶 摘译自 路透社 原文如下: Oil prices steady as market awaits output deal Oil prices were steady on Wednesday as the market awaits a pact from producers on output and Britain became the first country to approve a COVID-19 vaccine for use, boosting hopes for a future recovery in oil demand. Prices were hit by a surprise build in oil inventories in the United States and as OPEC and its allies created uncertainty with a two-day delay to a formal meeting to decide whether to increase production in January. Brent crude oil futures were down 9 cents, or 0.2%, at $47.33 a barrel by 1012 GMT, while West Texas Intermediate crude was down 11 cents, or 0.3%, at $44.44. Industry data from the American Petroleum Institute showed U.S. crude inventories rose by 4.1 million barrels last week, compared with analysts’ expectations in a Reuters poll for a draw of 2.4 million barrels. The numbers came after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Russia and other allies, a group known as OPEC+, postponed talks on next year’s oil output policy to Thursday from Tuesday, according to sources. The group this year imposed production cuts of 7.7 million barrels per day (bpd) as the coronavirus pandemic hit fuel demand. It had been widely expected to roll those reductions over into January-March 2021 amid spikes in COVID-19 cases. But the United Arab Emirates (UAE) said this week that even though it could support a rollover, it would struggle to continue with the same deep output reductions into 2021. “Reports about internal discords within the oil cartel following Monday’s virtual meeting has undermined the prevailing optimism,” said Stephen Brennock of oil broker PVM. He said market expectations were still leaning towards the extension of the current tranche of cuts through the first quarter of 2021, though “full in the knowledge that anything less would trigger a brutal selling frenzy.” Britain on Wednesday became the first western country to approve a COVID-19 vaccine, jumping ahead of the United States and mainland Europe in what may be a first step toward a return to normal life that will boost oil consumption back to pre-crisis levels. |
