-- 周二,欧洲天然气期货价格涨跌互现。荷兰TTF天然气期货合约在盘后交易中下跌超过2%,此前美国表示不会对周一伊朗的袭击事件进行报复,这缓解了中东地区的紧张局势。 由于五月初的银行假日,周一市场休市,荷兰TTF近月合约下跌2.416%,至每兆瓦时46.98欧元(54.98美元);而英国NBP天然气期货上涨2.569%,至每兆瓦时114.98便士(1.56美元)。 荷兰天然气价格下跌是由于美国官员淡化了周一霍尔木兹海峡事件和针对阿联酋的导弹袭击后与伊朗再次发生冲突的风险。华盛顿方面表示,这些事件并未违反已持续近一个月的停火协议,这有助于稳定市场情绪。 Trading Economics表示,尽管自冲突爆发以来价格已上涨约40%,但随着亚洲需求减弱,近期价格有所回落。 自2月底敌对行动开始以来,波斯湾液化天然气运输受到严重干扰,影响了全球约五分之一的供应。供应冲击加剧了欧洲的担忧,各国正努力在冬季到来之前补充天然气库存。 欧洲天然气基础设施协会(Gas Infrastructure Europe)的数据显示,欧盟目前的天然气库存占总容量的33.79%,远低于去年同期的41.14%。 Mind Energy表示,近期天然气合约的交易价格高于冬季交割合约,这降低了企业现在向库存注入天然气的经济动力。 因此,目前的库存水平仍远低于往年同期平均水平。这种情况使市场在未来几个月面临更多风险,包括可能推高需求的夏季热浪以及亚洲买家对液化天然气日益激烈的竞争。
