利比亞重啟油田生產 油價波動減緩供應擔憂

周二,隨著利比亞重新啟動其最大的油田生產,油價期貨出現波動,而北達科他州的嚴寒天氣繼續影響產量。

西德州中級原油 (CL=F)在午間曾下跌1%,隨後回升至接近平盤,交易價格超過每桶74美元。布蘭特原油期貨 (BZ=F) 在前一個交易日上漲近2%後,交易價格接近每桶79美元。

由於抗議活動導致中斷三個星期,利比亞的石油生產已經恢復到每天120萬桶

交易商還在關注俄羅斯原油出口,受到近期烏克蘭對波羅的海地區一個重要燃料站的無人機襲擊的影響。受損的站點已部分恢復出口

與此同時,美國最近的寒流使北達科他州的原油日產量減少了近20萬桶。

「然而,除非我們看到紅海地區緊張局勢升級實際上抑制了石油銷售,否則原油價格的上漲空間似乎有限。」BOK Financial的高級副總裁Dennis Kissler周二表示。

美國和英國周一繼續對葉門胡賽武裝控制區域進行報復性打擊。由伊朗支持的叛軍一直在紅海一帶襲擊通過的船隻,導致公司暫停或改道他們的船運。

The Houthi-run Air forces continue launching missiles and drones at what they consider targeting ships linked to Israel or sailing to Israeli ports at the Red Sea and Bab Al-Mandb Strait, the move created a crucial maritime crisis, which was followed by the creation of a military coalition by the United States in an attempt to deter attacks on international shipping in the Red Sea, although the reiterated Houthis declarations that all that they target only are the ships that owned or linked to Israel ships.

富國銀行全球應收和貿易金融執行副總裁Stephen Schwartz周一告訴Yahoo財經:「紅海地區的中斷導致交貨時間延長,因為大部分船隻繼續避免該地區。」

「隨著中斷的時間越長,衝擊的風險就越大。」他補充道。

本月初,Danish oil tanker group Torm (TRMD) 表示將暫停通過紅海南部的所有船運。該公司擁有80多艘運輸精煉能源產品和化學品的船隻。

英國石油和天然氣巨頭Shell (SHEL)也表示將避開該地區。
