欧佩克8月份日产量增加95万桶

据油价网9月2日报道， 根据路透调查显示，由于欧佩克继续放松减产，8月份的石油产量高于7月份，需求复苏也刺激产量增加。

据该调查称，8月原油日产量增加95万桶，至2,427万桶。尽管伊拉克承诺在8月份将日产量再削减40万桶，以弥补其以前未遵循OEPC+减产配额，但产量增加似乎仍在继续。尼日利亚还承诺进一步减产，以弥补5月份以来的生产过剩。

当欧佩克+将创纪录的每天970万桶的减产延长一个月至7月底时，联盟同意，该条约中的所有国家都应100%遵守其配额，而那些没有遵守配额的国家则应通过在7月、8月和9月超额完成减产来补偿不遵守的情况。

从8月开始，欧佩克+已将减产幅度降至770万桶/天，其中欧佩克的13个成员国需要总削减486.8万桶/天，不包括伊拉克和尼日利亚的补偿性减产。

石油需求可能正在改善，从而帮助欧佩克坚守其配额，但就连欧佩克对今年的石油需求也不是特别乐观。该组织在其最新月度石油市场报告中称，预计今年石油日需求将减少910万桶，较7月预估向上调10万桶。欧佩克还估计，今年全球经济可能下降多达4%，7月时的预估为3.7%。

根据路透调查数据显示，自6月OPEC产量触及1991年以来最低水平以来，产量已反弹200万桶/日，其中包括沙特主动实施的100万桶/日减产，以通过收紧供应加速油价反弹。迄今为止是欧佩克最大的生产国的沙特阿拉伯8月日产量为900万桶，较7月增加60万桶。

OPEC Production Rises By 950,000 Bpd In August

OPEC produced more oil in August than it did in July as the cartel continued to relax its production cuts, a Reuters survey has revealed, with recovering demand also stimulating more production.

The August increase amounted to 950,000 bpd, the survey said, to a total of 24.27 million bpd. This appears to be despite Iraq’s pledge to cut an additional 400,000 bpd from its output in August to compensate for its undercompliance with the OEPC+ cuts. Nigeria had also pledged to effect additional production cuts to compensate for its overproduction since May.

When OPEC+ extended the record production cuts of 9.7 million bpd by one month through the end of July, the coalition agreed that all countries in the pact should comply 100 percent with their quotas, and those who have not, should be compensating for lack of compliance by overachieving in the cuts in July, August, and September.

Beginning in August, OPEC+ has reduced the cuts to 7.7 million bpd, of which OPEC’s 13 members need to cut a combined 4.868 million bpd, excluding Iraq’s and Nigeria’s compensatory cuts.

Demand for oil may be improving and thus helping the cartel stick to its quotas, but even OPEC is not particularly optimistic for oil demand this year. In its latest Monthly Oil Market Report the group said it expected oil demand loss this year to hit 9.1 million bpd, a 100,000-bpd upward revision on its July forecast. OPEC also estimated that the global economy could shrink by as much as 4 percent this year, a revision from 3.7 percent estimated in July.

Since June, when OPEC’s production hit the lowest since 1991, according to data surveyed by Reuters, output has rebounded by 2 million bpd, including 1 million bpd of production cuts that Saudi Arabia had implemented voluntarily to hasten the oil price rebound by tightening supply. In August, the Kingdom, which is OPEC’s largest producer by far, pumped 9 million bpd, up by 600,000 bpd from July.
