石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据道琼斯3月21日消息，全球库存持续高涨以及美国产量加快上升重新引发抛盘，美国原油期货周二跌至四个月低点。
因美国库存没有减少，一些大宗商品交易员开始逃离原油市场。周二市场抛售势头增强，股市下挫，华盛顿的政治冲突已经令交易员更加质疑新的立法是否推动经济增速和能源需求。
纽约商业交易所四月交割的轻质低硫原油期货结算价下跌88美分，至每桶47.34美元，跌幅1.8%。这是自去年11月14日以来的最低结算价。美国原油期货过去16个交易日中有13个交易日下跌。
四月期货在结算后到期。交易最为活跃的五月交割期货结算价下跌67美分，至每桶48.24美元，跌幅1.4%。
ICE欧洲期货交易所的布伦特原油期货下跌66美分，至每桶50.96美元，跌幅1.3%。过去11个交易日中有九个交易日下跌，周二为今年以来第二低结算价。

DJ Oil Retreats on Oversupply Fears
By Timothy Puko, Sarah McFarlane and Jenny W. Hsu
U.S. crude futures fell to a four-month low Tuesday, with stubbornly large global inventories and accelerating production in the U.S. reigniting a selloff.
Without falling U.S. inventories, many commodity traders have started to bail out of the market. That selloff gained more momentum Tuesday, following equities lower, as political conflict in Washington caused traders to become more skeptical of high hopes for new legislation to stoke economic growth and energy demand.
Light, sweet crude for April delivery settled down 88 cents, or 1.8%, at $47.34 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. That is the lowest settlement since Nov. 14. U.S. prices fell 13 times in the last 16 sessions.
The April contract expired at settlement. The more actively traded May contract settled down 67 cents, or 1.4%, to $48.24 a barrel.
Brent crude, the global benchmark, lost 66 cents, or 1.3%, to $50.96 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe. It is down nine of the past 11 sessions and at its second-lowest settlement of the year.
