石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社报道，由于去年年底原油价格暴跌，美国能源企业开始削减2019年钻井计划，这是三周来首次削减石油钻井平台。 能源服务公司贝克休斯在上周五公布的一份报告中称，截至1月4日的一周内，能源企业削减了8座石油钻井平台，使总数量降至877座。 美国钻井平台的数量是衡量未来产量的早期指标，而今年的数量远高于一年前的水平（去年同期有742座钻井平台处于活跃状态），原因是能源企业为获取更高的价格投入了更多资金。 然而，一些分析人士预测，钻井平台数量在2018年和2017年分别增加了138套和222套后，在2019年将出现3年来的首次下降。能源企业在2016年削减了11座钻井平台。 本周公布的月度政府数据显示，10月份美国原油产量达到历史新高，每天超过1150万桶。 据贝克休斯表示，本周美国共有1075座活跃的石油和天然气钻井平台。大多数钻井同时生产石油和天然气。 美国投资银行Piper Jaffray能源专家西蒙斯公司的分析师们本周预测，2019年石油和天然气钻井平台的平均总量将降至1001座，21世纪20年代将上升到1094座，这与2018年12月中旬的预测相比有显著下降，当时的预测是2019年将为1092台，2020年将为1227台。 据贝克休斯称，2018年，钻井平台总数平均为1032座，是自2014年以来最多的，当时有1862座钻井平台在运行。 詹晓晶摘自路透社 原文如下： U.S. oil drillers cut rigs for first week in three: Baker Hughes U.S. energy firms cut oil rigs for the first time in three weeks as producers started to reduce their 2019 drilling plans with the collapse in crude prices at the end of last year. Drillers cut eight oil rigs in the week to Jan. 4, bringing the total count down to 877, General Electric Co’s Baker Hughes energy services firm said in its closely followed report on Friday. The U.S. rig count, an early indicator of future output, is still much higher than a year ago when 742 rigs were active after energy companies boosted spending in 2018 to capture higher prices that year. Some analysts, however, were forecasting the first decline in the rig count in three years in 2019 after drillers added 138 oil rigs in 2018 and 222 in 2017. They cut 11 rigs in 2016. U.S. crude oil output hit an all-time high of more than 11.5 million barrels per day in October, according to monthly government data released this week. There were 1,075 oil and natural gas rigs active in the United States this week, according to Baker Hughes. Most rigs produce both oil and gas. Analysts at Simmons & Co, energy specialists at U.S. investment bank Piper Jaffray, this week forecast the average combined oil and gas rig count will fall to 1,001 in 2019 before rising to 1,094 in 2020 – a significant decline from mid-December when they forecast 1,092 for 2019 and 1,227 for 2020. In 2018, the combined rig count averaged 1,032, the most since 2014 when 1,862 rigs were active, according to Baker Hughes.
