石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据OGJ网12月17日消息 12月14日纽约和伦敦期货市场原油基准价格下跌超过1美元/桶，本周收盘走低，分析人士认为这是由于美元升值加上石油投资者对美国股市波动存在担忧。 由于全球大多数市场的石油交易都是以美元结算的，美元升值使石油价格对用其它货币购买的购买者来说显得更加昂贵。 此外，截至12月14日的一周，美国天然气期货下跌约15%，为近3年来最大跌幅。全国大部分地区天气变暖的预期可能表明，短期内对供暖的气体需求较少。 彭博社12月13日报道说，沙特阿拉伯要求美国炼油厂准备2019年1月份的沙特原油货运量低于2018年底。欧佩克将在1月份开始减产，该组织在12月7日的会议上宣布了减产（OGJ 2018年12月7日）。 卡特尔成员国同意减产80万桶/日，而一些非欧佩克成员国，以俄罗斯为首，同意减产40万桶/日。 纽约商品交易所1月份轻质低硫原油合约下跌1.38美元，收于51.20美元/桶。二月份的合同价格下跌1.36美元，至51.47美元/桶。 12月14日，1月份的天然气期货下跌29.7美分，收于3.83美元/百万英热。急剧下跌使前月创下11月12日以来的最低点，为3.788美元/百万英热。 1月份超低硫柴油价格下跌3美分，至1.85美元/加仑，纽约商品交易所1月份重整汽油混合原料价格下跌4美分，至1.43美元/加仑。 伦敦国际商品交易所2月份布伦特原油价格下跌1.17美元，至60.28美元/桶。3月份的合同价格下跌1.19美元，至60.40美元/桶，12月份的石油合约价格为556.25美元/吨，下跌1.25美元。 12月14日，欧佩克原油平均价格为59.07美元，比前一天上涨40美分。 王磊 摘译自 OGJ 原文如下： Oil benchmark prices fell more than $1/bbl on New York and London futures markets Dec. 14, settling lower for the week, which analysts attributed to a stronger US dollar combined with ongoing oil investors’ worries about US stock market volatility. Because oil trades on most markets worldwide in US dollars, a stronger dollar makes oil more expensive for buyers starting out with other currencies. Separately, US natural gas futures dropped about 15% for the week ended Dec. 14—the largest such loss in nearly 3 years. Warmer weather expectations across most of the nation likely indicate less near-term gas demand for heating. Bloomberg reported Saudi Arabia on Dec. 13 told US refiners to prepare for fewer Saudi crude oil cargoes in January 2019 compared with late 2018. The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries will begin production cuts in January that it announced at a Dec. 7 meeting (OGJ Online, Dec. 7, 2018). Cartel members agreed to cut production by 800,000 b/d while some non-OPEC members, led by Russia, agreed to cut 400,000 b/d. The January light, sweet crude contract on the New York Mercantile Exchange dropped $1.38 to close at $51.20/bbl. The February contract dropped $1.36 to $51.47/bbl. Natural gas futures for January declined 29.7¢ to close at a rounded $3.83/MMbtu on Dec. 14. The steep drop put the front-month at its lowest point since reaching $3.788/MMbtu November 12. Ultralow-sulfur diesel for January dropped 3¢ to a rounded $1.85/gal. The NYMEX reformulated gasoline blendstock for January decreased 4¢ to a rounded $1.43/gal. Brent crude oil for February dropped $1.17 to $60.28/bbl on London’s International Commodity Exchange. The March contract dropped $1.19 to $60.40. The gas oil contract for December was $556.25/tonne, down $1.25. OPEC’s basket of crudes for Dec. 14 averaged $59.07, up 40¢ from the previous day.
