原标题:欧佩克+矛盾或将影响到联盟的未来
中国石化新闻网讯据7月6日CNBC报道,沙特阿拉伯和阿拉伯联合酋长国之间的冲突,让人们对这个能源联盟的未来产生了质疑,欧佩克+陷入危机。
上周的会议,出人意料地未能就石油生产政策达成一致,欧佩克+突然放弃了周一重新召开会议的计划,并且,该组织没有设定恢复谈判的新日期。这意味着,还没有就7月之后可能增加原油产量的决定达成一致。在全球燃料需求从新冠肺炎疫情中复苏之际,石油市场处于不稳定状态。
加拿大皇家银行资本市场(RBCCapitalMarkets)全球大宗商品策略主管HelimaCroft在一份研究报告中称:“欧佩克+遭遇了,自去年沙特阿拉伯和俄罗斯之间注定失败的价格战以来,最严重的危机。据报道,幕后谈判仍在继续,但未来几天,对阿联酋将继续留在欧佩克的质疑,可能会更多。阿联酋和沙特的争端似乎不仅仅是关于石油政策,阿布扎比似乎有意走出沙特阿拉伯的阴影,在全球事务中规划自己的道路。”
由中东原油生产国主导的欧佩克+同意在2020年实施大规模原油减产,以支撑油价,当时因新冠肺炎疫情,导致了燃料需求收到了历史性的冲击。
在阿联酋的盟友沙特阿拉伯的领导下,欧佩克+每月举行一次会议,以决定生产政策。
欧佩克联盟的团结出现消散危机
上周五,欧佩克+就一项从8月开始,以每月40万桶/日的方式增加石油产量,至年底达到增产约200万桶/日的提议进行了投票。该组织还提议将剩余的减产延长至2022年底。然而,阿联酋拒绝了该计划,该国希望提高配额基准,以增加国内产量。
PVMoilAssociates的石油分析师TamasVarga在一份研究报告中称,"就目前的情况来看,欧佩克+没有达成任何协议,今年剩余时间内的产量将维持在7月水平。此次会议的结果将改写近期,甚至可能是未来长期的供需格局。”
阿联酋和沙特阿拉伯之间罕见的公开对峙,促使两国能源部长在周末进行媒体闪电战,阐述各自的立场。
阿联酋能源和基础设施部长SuhailAlMazrouei周日表示:“对我们来说,这不是一笔好交易。虽然我们愿意支持短期内增加石油供应,但希望在2022年前获得更优惠的条款。”
据路透社报道,沙特能源部长阿卜杜勒-阿齐兹·本·萨勒曼周日对阿拉伯电视台(AlArabiya)表示,为了在周一达成协议,他呼吁彼此“妥协和理性”。
另外,据报道,一名白宫发言人周一表示,美国政府正在推动“妥协解决方案”。美国不是欧佩克的成员国,但考虑到这些谈判对明年原油市场的潜在影响,美国一直在密切关注最新一轮谈判。
在回应周一欧佩克+会议未达成协议而延期的消息时,AgainCapital创始合伙人约翰•基尔达夫(JohnKilduff)表示:“欧佩克的团结今天瓦解了。疫情使它们团结在一起,而现在它们正在分裂。阿联酋坚持要提高底线,希望能够获得更多生产配额。现在有趣的是,谁会倒下。阿联酋可能是倒下的‘第一张多米诺骨牌’。”
石油价格攀升至多年来的最高点
油价攀升的消息进一步推高了油价。国际基准布伦特原油期货价格周二早盘报每桶77.34美元,当日上涨0.2%,美国西德克萨斯中质原油期货价格报每桶76.36美元,上涨约1.6%。
WTI原油价格一度达到76.98美元,这是2014年11月以来的最高价格。今年上半年,受新冠肺炎疫苗的推出、封锁措施的逐步放松和欧佩克+的大规模减产的支持影响,油价上涨了45%以上。
CapitalEconomics助理大宗商品经济学家SamuelBurman表示,欧佩克产油国下个月可能将石油产量提高到超过配额的水平,因成员国“试图利用”油价的上涨。
他补充道:“除了阿联酋和沙特阿拉伯之间的出现分歧之外,阿布扎比可能对俄罗斯没有遵守欧佩克的产量配额感到“有些恼火”。
Burman表示:“非欧佩克成员国俄罗斯根本没有采取任何补偿性减产措施,目前日产量过剩约10万桶。我们认为,这场涉及阿联酋的争端,增加了整个协议破裂的可能性,这显然将对我们的近期价格预测带来下行风险。”
