伊拉克8月原油出口下降

据今日油价网站9月1日消息 与7月相比，伊拉克8月原油出口下降，因为欧佩克第二大产油国正在减少供应，以遵守欧佩克+减产协议，而该协议在此前的协议中基本上被忽视。

据Shafaq通讯社收到的伊拉克国家石油销售组织（SOMO）的早期估计，伊拉克8月份的原油出口平均为259.7万桶/日，比上月有所下降。

石油部数据显示，7月份伊拉克原油总出口量为276.3万桶/日。

SOMO周二表示，今年8月伊拉克原油出口为259.7万桶/日，其中包括巴士拉南部石油港口出口的250万桶/日，以及伊拉克北部油田通过土耳其杰伊汉港出口另外9.7万桶/日的石油出口。

出口伊拉克石油的平均价格为43.693美元/桶。

伊拉克石油销售公司表示，伊拉克8月份石油出口收入占伊拉克预算收入的大部分，为35.17亿美元。

石油收入对伊拉克预算收入至关重要，但近几个月来，以沙特阿拉伯为首的欧佩克+伙伴国向其施压，要求其停止在减产配额上的隐瞒行为，并最终开始遵守欧佩克+协议。

伊拉克承诺在8月额外削减约40万桶/日，以弥补前几个月未能遵守欧佩克+协议的情况。

伊拉克自2017年1月首次启动以来，一直是欧佩克+减产协议中最不遵守规定的成员国，几个月来一直承诺将减少石油产量，并按照配额下降，这是自2017年以来的首次。

尽管做出了承诺并减少了出口，但伊拉克尚未遵守减产协议。

Iraq’s Crude Oil Exports Drop In August

Iraq’s crude oil exports fell in August compared to July, as OPEC’s second-largest producer is reducing supply in an attempt to comply with the OPEC+ production cut pact, which it had largely disregarded in previous deals.

Iraq’s crude oil exports in August averaged 2.597 million barrels per day (bpd), down from the previous month, according to early estimates from Iraq’s State Oil Marketing Organization (SOMO) received by the Shafaq News agency.

In July, Iraq’s total crude oil exports stood at 2.763 million bpd, oil ministry data showed.

In August, Iraq’s crude oil exports of 2.597 million bpd included 2.5 million bpd of exports from the southern oil ports at Basra and another 97,000 bpd of oil exports from Iraq’s northern oilfields through the Turkish port of Ceyhan, SOMO said today.

The average price per barrel of exported Iraqi oil was $43.693.

Iraq’s revenues from its oil exports in August—oil income being the majority of Iraqi budget revenues—were at US$3.517 billion, Iraq’s oil marketing company said.

Oil revenues are critical to Iraq’s budget income, but in recent months OPEC’s second-largest oil producer has come under pressure from its fellow OPEC+ partners led by Saudi Arabia to stop cheating on their production quotas and finally start complying with the OPEC+ agreement.

Iraq promised additional cuts of around 400,000 bpd in August in order to compensate for the lack of compliance with the OPEC+ deal in the previous months.

Iraq, which has been the least compliant member of the OPEC+ production cut pact since it was first launched in January 2017, has been promising for months that it would reduce its oil production and fall in line with its quota—something it hasn’t done since 2017.

Despite the pledges and the reduced exports, Iraq has yet to comply with the production cut deal.
