-- 壳牌（SHEL）首席执行官瓦埃勒·萨万表示，由于持续不断的伊朗冲突，全球石油市场面临近10亿桶原油的缺口，并警告称供应缺口“每天都在加深”。 萨万在周四壳牌第一季度财报电话会议上表示，市场原油供应量大幅下降，部分原因是“原油被锁定或未生产”，并补充说，恢复过程需要时间。 他表示，壳牌已经看到炼油市场受到冲击，航空等行业的需求也出现了萎缩。 萨万补充说，未来需求疲软的程度仍不确定，将取决于未来几个月冲突的演变。 与此同时，与伊朗冲突相关的干扰持续加剧全球原油和燃料市场的紧张，尤其是在霍尔木兹海峡附近，该海峡是石油和液化天然气运输的关键通道。 壳牌高管表示，全球高达15%的原油供应受到冲突的影响。
