欧佩克产量达成产量削减协议的希望越来越低。因为更多的产油国不是加入到削减产量协议的谈判中,而是都在寻求豁免产量削减。高盛分析认为,欧佩克成员国之间缺乏协作。最近在维也纳的会议也没有取得任何进展。海湾合作委员会(GCC)国家沙特、阿联酋、卡塔尔和科威特不接受单边减产,伊朗和伊拉克不同意限额。俄罗斯、巴西和哈萨克斯坦均对按照目前的日产量进行冻产不感兴趣。欧佩克成员国在10月份产量不断增加减少了2017年上半年库存减少的可能性。(Rigzone,11月1日消息)
11月2日,国际原油期货价格下跌。油价下跌的主要原因是上周美国原油库存创纪录最大增幅,引发投资者担心全球供应过剩。
此外,此前路透调查显示OPEC原油产量可能再创纪录高位也令油价承压。美国能源情报署(EIA)公布的数据显示,10月28日当周美国原油库存增加1440万桶,分析师预期为增加100万桶。上周美国原油库存创下1982年开始编纂该数据以来的最大增幅,且高于周二美国石油协会(API)公布的增加930万桶,令油价承受较大下行压力。路透调查周一显示,10月OPEC原油产量可能再创纪录高位,日产量达到3380万桶。OPEC将在11月30日举行会议,希望敲定减产计划。本周两个OPEC产油国暗示,较之减产,它们更乐意增产。尼日利亚称该国原油产量已上升至210万桶/日,利比亚原油日产量自9月中以来翻番,至大约59万桶。
12月交货的WTI原油期货下跌1.33美元/桶,收盘价报每桶45.34美元;2017年1月交货的布伦特原油期货下跌1.28美元/桶,收盘价报每桶46.86美元。布伦特与WTI价差为1.52美元/桶,较前一日扩大0.05美元/桶。布伦特与迪拜价差为0.03美元/桶,较前一日缩窄0.395美元/桶。
1. 石油库存增加 价格下降
原油价格继续下降,根据美国石油学会最新报告显示,本周石油库存上升了930万桶。
2. “石油行业走向末路”言过其实
David Blackmon分析,认为一些报告中断言油气行业“走向末路”还为时过早,同时分析了在这种消极说法下全球需要率的变化。
3. Colonial Pipeline涉足航空领域
如果Colonial Pipeline获得相关许可,为了提高效率而禁止高硫喷气燃料以及柴油的运载,那么主要的几家航空公司都将受到影响。
4. 石油巨头着力发展可再生能源
据路透社独家报道,7家石油天然气公司的CEO将宣布关于促进可再生能源的投资基金计划,不过,具体投资结构尚未最终确定。
5. Dakota州输油管道或变更路线
美国总统奥巴马暗示,美国官员或重新规划Dakota州的一条有争议的输油管道,但他同时表示,希望这一问题能够尽快得到解决。
6. 加州南部石油天然气有限公司欲重增库存
本周,该天然气公司向有关部门提交申请,要求重新向其在Aliso Canyon的储油设施供应天然气,不过政府官员想确定油气井的安全性。
7. 尼日利亚、利比亚不受减产影响
尼日利亚以及利比亚两国继续大幅度增加石油产量,然而OPEC仍然在苦苦研究潜在的减产计划。
8. 壳牌收购BG集团初见成效
投资商对一项收购正在进行严格检查,壳牌此时情况突然有所好转。由于产量上升,BG集团收益资金大于支出。
9. Lundin发展良好
在该瑞典能源公司的最新季度报告中显示,该公司本季度收入增加了70%, 与去年同期相比,净产量翻了一倍。
10. 新英格兰天然气价格可能飙升
新英格兰地区超过半数以上的能源供应均为天然气,天然气市场的起伏不定会影响到天然气价格,但具体情况还要取决于今年冬天的天气。
