中國石化新聞網訊 據道瓊斯阿爾及爾9月21日消息,據知情人士透露,沙特阿拉伯最重要品級原油供應下降,這一情況可能推高油價。 特朗普政府在對沙特施壓,要求該國采取措施控制油價上漲,在此壓力下,沙特周日將利用阿爾及爾的產油國峰會來向石油市場確保,該國可以填補由于美國11月開始對伊朗石油出口制裁帶來的任何原油供應短缺。 但沙特阿拉伯國家石油公司(沙特阿美)告訴潛在買家,該公司最重要品級的原油10月將供應短缺,因為該公司之前低估了伊朗制裁開始前的需求。據知情人士透露,沙特官員估計,從長期來看,一旦伊朗不再出口原油,沙特阿美不具備滿足未來需求的產能。 供應短缺可能推高油價到每桶80美元以上,可能對美國消費者決定總統特朗普的共和黨在11月中期選舉中是否能維持國會兩院控制席位時造成影響。 唐紹紅 摘譯自 道瓊斯 原文如下: Saudi Arabia Worries Oil Crunch Could Push Up Prices Saudi Arabia is running low on its most prized grade of crude, people familiar with the matter said, a development that could push oil prices higher. After coming under pressure from the Trump administration over rising oil prices, Saudi Arabia is set to use an oil-producers’ summit in Algiers on Sunday to reassure oil markets that it can fill any shortages that arise as U.S. sanctions restricting Iranian oil sales begin in November. But state-run oil giant Saudi Arabian Oil Co., known as Aramco, is telling potential buyers that its most highly prized crude will be in short supply in October after it underestimated the demand in advance of Iranian sanctions. And in the longer term, officials estimate Aramco doesn’t have the capacity to meet future demand once Iran is no longer delivering oil, according to people familiar with the matter. The scarcity could push prices above $80 a barrel, potentially putting a strain on U.S. consumers as they decide whether President Trump’s Republican Party will remain in control of both houses of Congress in November’s midterm elections.
