今年美國原油日產量將達1100萬桶
中國石化新聞網訊 據彭博社2月6日紐約報道，美國政府認為全國范圍內的石油產量超過每日1100萬桶，比原先預期的要快得多。
美國能源情報署(Energy Information Administration)在周二公布的月度短期能源展望報告中稱，11月石油產量已突破每日1000萬桶，今年11月的產量將超過每日1,100萬桶。
該公司此前預測，2019年11月的產量將超過這一水平。
根據EIA的數據，今年全國平均產量將達到1059萬，明年將達到1118萬，高于此前預測的1027萬和1085萬。
自去年年底以來西德克薩斯中質原油(West Texas Intermediate)的價格一直高于每桶60美元，因此，在這種價格環境下開采的前景，吸引著開采企業加快步伐。
貝克休斯最新的數據顯示，美國石油鉆井平臺的數量創下6月以來的最大兩周漲幅。
EIA稱，今年WTI原油的平均價格為58.28美元/桶，高于上月的每桶55.33美元和2019年的57.51美元，高于57.43美元。
全球基準的布倫特原油價格預計將在2018年達到62.39美元，高于每桶59.74美元和2019年的61.51美元，高于61.43美元。
WTI在紐約下午1:50的交易價為每桶63.59美元，而布倫特原油交易價為每桶66.91美元。

U.S. crude output to jump above 11 MMbpd sooner than expected
The U.S. government sees nationwide oil production jumping above 11 MMbpd much quicker than anticipated.
After oil output already topped 10 MMbpd back in November, output will climb above the 11-million mark this November, the Energy Information
Administration said in its monthly Short-Term Energy Outlook on Tuesday.
It previously forecast production above that level in November 2019.
Nationwide output will average 10.59 million this year and 11.18 million next year, up from prior forecasts of 10.27 million and 10.85 million, according to the EIA.
With West Texas Intermediate crude holding above $60/bbl since late last year, the prospect of pumping in this price environment is seen enticing drillers to pick up the pace.
The U.S. oil rig count posted the biggest two-week gain since June, according to the latest Baker Hughes data.
WTI crude will average $58.28/bbl this year, the EIA said, up from last month’s estimate of $55.33, and $57.51 in 2019, higher than $57.43.
The global benchmark Brent is forecast to average $62.39 in 2018, up from $59.74, and $61.51 in 2019 versus $61.43.
WTI traded at $63.59 at 1:50 p.m. in New York, while Brent was at $66.91.
