石油圈中國石化新聞網訊 據彭博社紐約9月6日報道，被颶風哈維損壞的工廠加劇了對煉油廠原油的需求，原油價格接近四周高點。 紐約股市期貨上漲1.4%，與此同時，汽油價格連續三天下跌，跌幅達23%。 Motiva Enterprises LLC在休斯敦以東90米的煉油廠，它比其他任何北美工廠生產的原油都要多，在幾天內就有望趕上其正常工作速度的40%。 當哈維關閉德克薩斯州各大主要港口時，數十艘滯留在海上的油輪開始向原油運送原油，這些煉油廠上周處于干涸的危險之中。 多倫多道明證券(TD Securities)全球大宗商品策略主管巴特?米勒克(Bart Melek)在電話中表示，海灣地區煉油廠的重啟“意味著我們不會因為某些人的想法而獲得石油庫存的巨大積累?！?據晨星公司的石油和產品研究總監Sandy Fielden表示，Harvey在短短48小時內就砍掉了20％以上的煉油能力。 在8月25日登陸之前，颶風還關閉了管道、港口和海上平臺。 雖然這些設施中有許多已經恢復使用，但由于某些地區的洪水泛濫，修復工作還不完善，因此可能需要昂貴、費時的維修。 寶盛集團(Julius Baer Group Ltd .)大宗商品研究主管Norbert Ruecker表示:“在哈維之后的清理工作正在全面展開，美國能源業務正恢復正常。煉油廠正在恢復運營，港口正在重新啟動貿易?！?紐約商品交易所10月份交割的西德克薩斯中質原油在上午10時20分上漲了44美分至49.10美元/桶。 WTI正在走向其200天移動均線，收于49.50美元/桶。 11月交割的布倫特原油價格上漲52美分，至每桶53.90美元，此前倫敦洲際交易所(ICE Futures Europe)的匯率上漲至5月25日歐佩克最近一次部長級會議以來的最高水平。 紐約10月汽油期貨下跌2.7％至1.6536美元/加侖。 蔡小全 編譯自 世界石油網站 原文如下： Oil heads for four-week high as demand for crude rises Oil approached a four-week high as refiners revved up plants pounded by Hurricane Harvey, sparking demand for crude. Futures rose as much as 1.4% in New York while gasoline dropped, extending a three-day, 23% decline. Motiva Enterprises LLC’s refinery 90 mi east of Houston, which processes more crude than any other North American plant, was on track to reach 40% of its normal working rate within days. Dozens of tankers that had been stranded offshore when Harvey shut every major Texas port began delivering cargoes of crude to refiners that had been in danger of running dry last week. The restart of Gulf refineries “implies that we are not going to get these great accumulations of inventory in oil as some had thought,” Bart Melek, head of global commodity strategy at TD Securities in Toronto, said by telephone. Harvey knocked out more than 20% of the nation’s refining capacity in just 48 hr, according to Sandy Fielden, Morningstar Inc.’s director of oil and products research. The storm also shut pipelines, ports and offshore platforms as it intensified before making landfall on Aug. 25. Although many of those facilities are back in service, the recovery is incomplete because of extensive flooding in some areas that will probably require expensive, time-consuming repairs. “The post-Harvey clean-up is in full swing and the U.S. energy business is returning to normality,” said Norbert Ruecker, head of commodity research at Julius Baer Group Ltd. “Refineries are resuming operations and ports are re-initiating trade.” West Texas Intermediate crude for October delivery climbed 44 cents to $49.10/bbl at 10:20 a.m. on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Brent for November settlement added 52 cents to $53.90/bbl on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange, after earlier rising to the highest since the last OPEC ministerial meeting on May 25. October gasoline futures in New York dropped 2.7% to $1.6536/gal. ?
