據(jù)俄羅斯衛(wèi)星新聞網(wǎng)2020年4月13日華盛頓報道，據(jù)美國能源信息署(EIA)周一（13日）發(fā)布的統(tǒng)計數(shù)據(jù)顯示，與本月產(chǎn)量相比，美國5月份的石油和天然氣產(chǎn)量預(yù)計將分別下降2.1%和1%。

EIA在一份新聞稿中稱，美國4月份石油日產(chǎn)量預(yù)計將為870.9萬桶，5月份將降至852.6萬桶，而天然氣日產(chǎn)量將從4月份的8402.7萬立方英尺降至5月份的8315.8萬立方英尺。

EIA的這個預(yù)測是在全球能源市場持續(xù)動蕩的背景下做出的，歐佩克推遲達成一項新的協(xié)議，以及為遏制疫情而實施的旅行限制導(dǎo)致能源消費急劇下降。

歐佩克+國家,以及美國、巴西和加拿大周日達成一項新協(xié)議，從5月1日起在歐佩克+集團內(nèi)每天減少970萬桶石油產(chǎn)量。如考慮20國集團國家，這個減產(chǎn)數(shù)可能增加到1500萬桶/天。

這些減產(chǎn)計劃將延伸至6月底，然后在7月至年底期間每天削減770萬桶石油，然后在2021年1月至2022年4月期間每天削減580萬桶石油。

歐佩克+集團預(yù)計將在6月10日再次開會，以確定是否需要采取額外措施。

US Energy Department estimates 2.1% drop in oil production in May,1% drop in natural gas

Output of oil and natural gas in the United States is expected to decline by 2.1 percent and 1 percent respectively in May compared with production levels this month, according to Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates released on Monday.

Anticipated oil output in April of 8.709 million barrels per day is forecast to fall to 8.526 million barrels in May, while gas production is forecast to fall from 84.027 million cubic feet/day to 83.158 million cubic feet/day, the EIA said in a press release.

The forecast comes amid ongoing turmoil in global energy markets due to delays in striking a new OPEC deal, as well as a precipitous drop in energy consumption amid travel restrictions imposed in an attempt to halt the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

OPEC+ countries, as well as the United States, Brazil, and Canada reached a new agreement on Sunday to reduce oil production by 9.7 million barrels a day within the OPEC+ group starting from 1 May, and possibly up to 15 million barrels of oil per day with G20 nations taken into account.

The cuts are to be extended through the end of June before being tapered to 7.7 million barrels per day from July to the end of 2020, when they will then be reduced to 5.8 million barrels per day from January 2021 through April 2022.

The group is expected to meet once again on 10 June to determine whether additional measures need to be taken.
