沙特阿美认为全球石油日需求量已达到9000万桶

据石油新闻2020年6月30日迪拜报道，沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司（沙特阿美）总裁兼首席执行官阿敏·纳赛尔在6月30日发表的采访记录中表示，全球石油日需求量已反弹至近9000万桶，部分扭转了COVID-19大流行造成的消费低迷。

纳赛尔是在IHS Markit组织的CERAWeek在线活动上发表上述讲话的。他说：“最糟糕的时期已经过去，西德克萨斯中质原油的交易价格已从每桶-40美元增至+ 40美元。今年4月，我们曾预计今年全球石油日需求量约为7500万至8000万桶，而当时的石油供应量相当可观。目前的供应量已接近9000万桶/天。我对今年下半年的形势非常乐观。”

据资讯公司预测，今年全球石油日需求量将同比减少830万桶，降至9420万桶。

纳赛尔说：“有不同的预测认为，到今年年底前，全球石油日需求量将在9500万桶到9700万桶之间。所以，这完全取决于是否会有第二波新冠病毒疫情爆发。但是我也不担心第二波疫情，因为我认为我们现在准备得更好了。”

Saudi Aramco CEO sees oil demand at 90 mil b/d in COVID-19 recovery

Oil demand has rebounded close to 90 million b/d, partly reversing a slump in consumption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Saudi Aramco's president and CEO Amin Nasser has said in the transcript of an interview published on June 30.

"The worst is behind us," said Nasser, speaking at an online event for CERAWeek organized by IHS Markit. "We went from -$40 b/d to +$40 b/d with WTI. In April we were looking at demand of about 75-80 million b/d with significant supply at that time. Currently you are looking at almost close to 90 million b/d. I'm very optimistic about the second half of this year."

Analytics Agencyis forecasting oil demand will fall year-on-year by 8.3 million b/d in 2020 to 94.2 million b/d.

"There are different forecasts looking at between 95 million and 97 million b/d by year-end. So, it will all depend on whether there will be a second wave of coronavirus or not. But I am also not as concerned about a second wave because I think we are much better prepared now," said Nasser.
