中國石化新聞網訊 據道瓊斯6月27日消息,摩根士丹利指出,今年前五個月美國本土48個州的降水量創下自1998年以來最高水平,這令美國汽油需求受到沖擊。盡管美國政府預計夏季降水量將接近歷史平均水平,駕車出行水平更加正常,但熱帶風暴辛迪造成的殘留效應可能會對近期的駕車出行活動帶來壓力。與此同時,4月份最新聯邦數據顯示,美國駕車者行駛里程數同比增長1.2%,略高于3月份0.8%的增幅。直至近期放緩的駕車活動情況多次顯示,美國行駛里程數或增長3-4%。摩根士丹利預計,5月份行駛里程數據也將受到天氣帶來的不利影響。此外摩根士丹利還表示,燃油效率改善仍將繼續對汽油需求造成沖擊。美國能源部門暗示,盡管行駛里程數繼續增長,但是美國汽油需求下降2%。 唐紹紅 摘譯自 道瓊斯 原文如下: Prolonged Rain Douses US Gasoline Demand US gasoline demand been dampened by the rainiest first 5 months of a year since 1998 in the lower 48, notes Morgan Stanley. Even though the government anticipates summer precipitation to be closer to average, resulting in more-normal driving levels, the residual effects of Tropical Storm Cindy are liable to pressure activity near-term. That as fresh federal data for April show miles driven rose 1.2% from a year earlier, up slightly from March’s 0.8%. Activity until the recent slowdown had been repeatedly showing miles-driven growth of 3-4%. Morgan Stanley is expecting May’s data to also be weather-depressed. Meanwhile, gasoline demand continues to be hit by improved fuel efficiency, the bank adds. US gasoline demand indicated by the Energy Department shows a 2% decline despite miles driven continuing to rise. ?
