シェルCEO、イラン戦争により石油市場は10億バレル近い不足に直面すると発言

By

-- シェル(SHEL)のワエル・サワン最高経営責任者(CEO)は、イラン紛争の継続により世界の石油市場は10億バレル近い原油不足に直面しており、供給不足は「日々深刻化している」と警告した。 木曜日に開催されたシェルの第1四半期決算説明会で、サワンCEOは、市場は「供給が滞っている原油」や「未生産の原油」によって相当量の供給量を失っており、回復には時間がかかると述べた。 同CEOは、シェルはすでに精製市場全体でその影響を目の当たりにしており、航空業界など一部の分野で需要の減少が見られると述べた。 サワンCEOは、今後の需要低迷の程度は依然として不透明であり、今後数ヶ月間の紛争の展開次第だと付け加えた。 これらの発言は、イラン紛争に関連した混乱が世界の原油・燃料市場、特に石油・LNG輸送の主要ルートであるホルムズ海峡周辺で逼迫を招いている中でなされた。 シェル幹部は、世界の原油供給量の最大15%が紛争によって影響を受けていると述べた。
