石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社新加坡4月18日消息，油价周三小幅上涨，美国原油库存下降，供应中断的风险也在上升。布伦特原油期货LCOc1报每桶71.90美元，上涨32美分，涨幅0.5%。 美国西德克萨斯中质原油期货CLc1上涨33美分，或0.5%，报每桶66.85美元。 美国石油学会(API)周二发布的一份周报显示，上周美国原油库存下降了100万桶，至4.28亿桶。 “油价目前保持在3年高点(4月稍早)，且库存回到正常水准，过去几年供应过剩似乎已经结束，”澳洲瑞夫金证券投资分析师William O ‘Loughlin表示。 自2017年起，石油输出国组织(OPEC，简称欧佩克)的石油输出国组织(OPEC，简称欧佩克)领导的石油输出国组织(OPEC，简称欧佩克)发起了一项旨在支撑油价的自愿供应限制，但奥拉夫林表示，由于政治和经济动荡，委内瑞拉的石油产量下降是支撑油价的因素。 他表示:“由于委内瑞拉经济形势恶化，委内瑞拉产量大幅下降，欧佩克产量目前低于预期。” 荷兰国际集团(ING)在给客户的一份报告中表示，由于地缘政治风险以及市场基本面因素的一些基本面因素，布伦特原油价格已在4月份回升至每桶70美元以上。 布伦特原油和WTI期货价格曲线的结构也预示着2018年市场将更加紧张。 胡晶晶摘译自路透社 原文如下 Oil prices edged up on Wednesday, lifted by a reported fall in U.S. crude inventories and by the ongoing risk of supply disruptions.Brent crude oil futures LCOc1 were at $71.90 per barrel at 0117 GMT, up 32 cents, or 0.5 percent, from their last close. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures CLc1 were up 33 cents, or 0.5 percent, at $66.85 a barrel. In the United States, crude inventories fell by 1 million barrels last week, to 428 million barrels, according to a weekly report by the American Petroleum Institute (API) on Tuesday. “Oil prices are holding near three-year highs (reached earlier in April) for the time being, and with inventories back in line with normal levels, the supply glut of the last few years appears to be over,” said William O’Loughlin, investment analyst at Australia’s Rivkin Securities. Beyond voluntary supply restriction aimed at propping up prices led by the producer cartel of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) since 2017, O’Loughlin said falling output in Venezuela due to its political and economic turmoil was supporting prices. “OPEC production is currently lower than expected as a result of large declines in Venezuelan output caused by a deterioration in the economic situation there,” he said. Dutch bank ING said in a note to clients that Brent had risen back above $70 per barrel in April “due to geopolitical risks along with some fundamentally bullish developments in the market”. The structure of the Brent and WTI forward price curve also points to a tighter market in 2018.
