浮式生产系统市场因油价回升而反弹

据OE网站4月2日报道，海上商业情报公司《世界能源报告》期刊（World Energy Reports）负责人吉姆?麦考尔（JimMcCaul）表示，过去一个月，受原油价格上涨的推动，浮式生产装置的订单出现反弹。

麦考尔的评估基于《世界能源报告》编制的一份新的浮式采油系统报告中的数据。该报告提供了206个处于规划阶段的浮式装置项目、44个已订购的生产或储存浮式装置、307个正在使用的浮式生产装置和44个可用于重新部署合同的生产浮式装置的详细情况。

正如报告中所述，自2月下旬以来，已经订购了三艘生产浮式装置。BW Offshore获得供应Barossa FPSO的合同，SBM Offshore签署了供应Buzios#6 FPSO的意向书。

根据麦考尔的说法，订购活动是由每桶60美元的原油价格推动的，反映了全球石油需求的逐渐复苏和欧佩克+石油供应的削减。

麦考尔进一步指出，“原油库存一直在攀升，美国原油库存目前比季节性水平高出6%。”

尽管发现了一些负面影响，例如对政府干预巴西石油公司（Petrobras）导致董事会辞职的持续担忧，但麦考尔补充道，人们仍然广泛预期，随着新冠疫情危机逐渐成为过去，全球石油需求将在未来几年大幅反弹。”

Floating Production Systems Market Bounces Back on Recovering Oil Prices

Orders for production floaters have bounced back over the past month driven by rising crude prices, according to Jim McCaul, head of offshore business intelligence firm World Energy Reports.

McCaul bases his assessment on data in a new floating production systems report prepared by World Energy Reports. The report provides details for 206 floater projects in the planning stage, 44 production or storage floaters now on order, 307 floating production units currently in service and 44 production floaters available for redeployment contracts.

As detailed in the report, three production floaters have been ordered since late February. BW Offshore received a contract to supply the Barossa FPSO, SBM Offshore signed an LOI to supply the Buzios #6 FPSO.

According to McCaul, the ordering activity is driven by crude prices trading in the $60s, “reflecting the gradual recovery of global oil demand and OPEC+ curtailment of oil supply”.

McCaul further points out that “crude inventory has been creeping higher and the US crude inventory is now 6% above seasonal levels.”

Despite identifying a few negative influences, such as continuing concerns over government interference at Petrobras which resulted in board resignations, McCaul added that “there continues to be wide expectation that global oil demand will rebound sharply over the next few years as the Covid crisis recedes into the past”.
