中国石化新闻网讯 据彭博社8月4日报道，欧佩克+表示将继续坚持原定方针，沙特阿拉伯作为组织领导国延长减产措施以稳固全球石油市场。
一位不愿透露姓名的代表称，在7月底的在线会议上，由沙特阿拉伯和其他关键欧佩克+国家组成的监测委员会推荐不对联盟的供应政策进行任何调整，因为相关信息属于私密。
沙特阿拉伯在上周四宣布将持续将每日减产100万桶的单方面措施延长至9月，并可能在此后进一步减产，以支持脆弱的市场。伦敦原油价格在每桶85美元以上，接近三个月来的高位，但对于亚洲经济复苏的担忧对需求前景产生了阴影。
根据组织网站上的声明，该委员会将“继续密切评估市场情况”，并注意到欧佩克+成员国愿意“应对市场发展，并随时准备采取进一步措施”。
主要消费国已批评沙特阿拉伯在石油市场已经在迅速收紧的情况下限制产量，警告称重新出现通货膨胀将给消费者带来更多痛苦。
目前的减产努力主要集中在两个欧佩克+领导国，其他几个石油输出国及其合作伙伴仍低于其分配的产量配额，无法进一步减产，因为受到不充足的投资和政治不稳定的困扰。
为维护石油市场，沙特付出了代价，将产量削减至两年来的低位，每日产油量仅约900万桶。国际货币基金组织对该国的经济增长预测进行了最严重的下调，预计今年增长仅为1.9%，仅为2022年的一小部分。
根据声明，联合部长级监测委员会将于10月4日再次召开会议，而由23个国家组成的完整欧佩克+联盟将于11月下旬会晤。

OPEC+ Reaffirms Strategy
OPEC+ signaled it will stay the course as group leader Saudi Arabia extends a production cut aimed at shoring up global oil markets.
A monitoring committee comprising the kingdom and other key OPEC+ nations recommended no changes to the coalition’s supply policy at an online meeting on Friday, according to a delegate, who asked not to be named because the information was private.
Riyadh announced on Thursday that it will extend a unilateral cutback of 1 million barrels a day into September — and potentially deepen the reduction after that — to support a fragile market. Crude prices are trading near a three-month high above $85 a barrel in London, yet fears over Asian economic rebound cloud the demand outlook.
The committee “will continue to closely assess market conditions” and noted that OPEC+ members are willing “to address market developments and stand ready to take additional measures at any time,” according to a statement on the organization’s website.
Major consuming nations have criticized the Saudis for constricting output when oil markets are already on track to tighten significantly, warning that a renewed inflationary spike would inflict more pain on consumers.
The current effort is largely confined to the two OPEC+ leaders: several other nations among the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and its partners are pumping below their assigned quotas and unable to cut further, plagued by inadequate investment and political instability.
Defending the oil market has come at a cost for the Saudis, requiring them to slash output to a two-year low near 9 million barrels a day. The kingdom suffered the sharpest downgrade to economic growth projections by the International Monetary Fund, which sees the country expanding by just 1.9% this year, a fraction of its performance in 2022.
The Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee will convene again on Oct. 4, according to the statement, while the full 23-nation OPEC+ alliance is due to meet in late November.
