中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博新闻社2022年11月21日报道,沙特阿拉伯11月21日否认了有关沙特阿拉伯正在为下个月的欧佩克+会议讨论增加石油产量的报道,并表示,如果需要,沙特阿拉伯随时准备进一步减产。
截至伦敦时间11月21日下午5时18分,原油期货收于每桶86.04美元,下跌1.8%。
沙特阿拉伯王子萨勒曼通过沙特通讯社发表声明称:“欧佩克+目前每日减产200万桶原油的计划将持续到2023年底。”“如果有必要采取进一步措施,减少产量以平衡供需,欧佩克+总是随时准备干预。”
石油期货早前一度下跌6.1%,跌破每桶85美元,为去年9月以来首次,此前《华尔街日报》曾报道称,沙特阿拉伯和其他欧佩克成员国正在考虑将原油日产量提高多达50万桶。
在欧佩克及其盟友去年10月决定每日减少200万桶原油产量之后,这将是一次重大逆转。
在减产协议达成后的最初上涨之后,原油价格已经下跌。欧佩克两次下调其对全球石油需求的预测,他表示,由于全球经济健康状况的“不确定性”,欧佩克+将对原油产量目标保持谨慎。
能源分析公司Kpler公布的数据显示,沙特阿拉伯11月已大幅削减石油出口量,以履行“欧佩克+”协议。欧佩克+的下一次会议定于12月4日举行。

Saudis Deny Report of Talks on OPEC+ Oil Output Increase
Saudi Arabia denied a report that it is discussing an oil-production increase for the OPEC+ meeting next month, and said it stands ready to make further cuts if needed.
Crude futures pared earlier losses, trading 1.8% lower at $86.04 a barrel as of 5:18 p.m. in London.
“The current cut of 2 million barrels per day by OPEC+ continues until the end of 2023,” Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman said in a statement via the Saudi Press Agency. “If there is a need to take further measures by reducing production to balance supply and demand, we always remain ready to intervene.”
Oil futures earlier dropped as much as 6.1%, dipping below $85 a barrel for the first time since September, after the Wall Street Journal reported that the kingdom and other members of the group were considering raising output by as much as 500,000 barrels a day.
That would have been a major reversal after the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies decided in October to cut production by 2 million barrels a day.
After an initial rally following the cuts agreement, crude prices have declined . OPEC twice reduced its forecasts for global oil demand, and Prince Abdulaziz has said the group will remain cautious due to “uncertainties” about the health of the global economy.
Saudi Arabia has already cut oil exports sharply this month to deliver on the OPEC+ agreement, according to data from energy analytics firm Kpler Ltd. The cartel’s next meeting is scheduled for Dec. 4.
