墨西哥湾石油产量下降到6.5%

据6月14日Financial Tribune报道，6月12日，热带风暴克里斯托瓦尔(Cristobal)周末席卷美国墨西哥湾地区，导致该地区约6.5%的原油生产处于中断状态。该地区的石油产量在飓风季节过去十几天后接近正常水平。

美国安全和环境执法局(US Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement)最新数据显示，从6月11日至6月12日，每天有逾12.26万桶原油恢复供应。在风暴来临之前，美国海湾地区近35%的石油产量已经停产。

BSEE表示，在关闭了635781桶/天的峰值产能后，截至6月12日，仍有120079桶/天的产量下降，占美国海湾石油总产量的6.49%。

BSEE在一份声明中表示:“工作人员已经返回目前在海湾作业的所有钻井平台(非动态定位)。”

6月12日，美国墨西哥湾被疏散的钻井平台数量降至7个，约占该地区643个此类设施的1%。

美国能源信息署估计，美国海湾地区第二季度的石油产量为184万桶/天，低于第一季度的196万桶/天。

Offline Gulf of Mexico Oil Production Falls to 6.5%

oughly 6.5% of crude oil production in the US Gulf of Mexico remained offline on June 12 from Tropical Storm Cristobal's weekend saunter through the region, bringing the area's output closer to normalcy during what after a dozen days has already been an active hurricane season.

More than 122,600 barrels per day of crude came back online from June 11 to June 12, according to daily updates from the US Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement. Almost 35% of the US Gulf production was shut-in in advance of the storm.

After a peak of 635,781 bpd was shut in, BSEE said 120,079 bpd remained down on June 12, or 6.49% of total US Gulf oil production.

"Personnel have returned to all rigs (non-dynamically positioned) currently operating in the Gulf," BSEE said in a statement.

The number of platforms evacuated in the US Gulf dropped to seven June 12, or about 1% of the 643 such facilities in the region, from 20 or 3% a day earlier.

The US Energy Information Administration estimates the US Gulf oil production in the second quarter at 1.84 million bpd, down from 1.96 million bpd in Q1.
