据7月11日MENAFN消息:伊拉克石油部周一表示,5月原油销售不足1亿桶,但油价改善令其获利高于前一个月。
作为石油输出国组织的第二大原油生产国,由于最近全球油价暴跌以及来自沙特的廉价石油大量涌入,让这个国家心烦意乱。
5月,伊拉克以21美元的正常价格售出原油9,950万桶,当月获利20.9亿美元。
而今年4月销量更高,卖出了1.031亿桶,但每桶13.80美元的常规价格创下历史新低,获利仅为14亿美元。
专家们警告称,即使油价回升,最近几个月买家仍在继续购买廉价石油,不需要像夏季开始时那样大量购买石油。

Iraq oil sales' income drop in May
The oil ministry said on Monday that Iraq sold fewer than 100 million barrels of crude in May, but improving prices saw it rake in more profits than the previous month.
The second-biggest crude producer of the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting countries (OPEC) cartel has been left whirling by the recent worldwide crash in oil prices and a flood of cheap oil from Saudi Arabia.
In May, Iraq sold 99.5 million barrels of crude oil at a regular price of USD21, making USD2.09 billion for the month.
In April, it had sold more barrels; 103.1 million, but the record-low regular price of USD13.80 per barrel made it only USD1.4 billion.
Experts had cautioned that even if prices recuperated, buyers had been keeping up on cheap oil in recent months and would not need to buy as much oil as summer started.
