-- 尽管有报道称美国和伊朗正在考虑将目前的停火协议延长两周,以便有更多时间进行和平谈判,但欧洲天然气期货周四仍上涨。 荷兰TTF近月合约上涨1.85%,至每兆瓦时42.16欧元(49.67美元);英国NBP期货上涨2.06%,至每热量单位105.81便士(1.43美元)。 据彭博社援引一位知情人士的消息报道,停火协议将于周二到期,但由于双方谈判代表计划举行技术性会谈,停火协议可能会延长。会谈内容将涵盖霍尔木兹海峡的重新开放以及伊朗的核浓缩问题。 与此同时,美国中央司令部公布了美国海军舰艇执行对伊朗封锁的录音,录音显示,往返伊朗港口的商船将受到“拦截和扣押”的威胁。 美国陆军退役军士长蒂莫西·劳恩周三表示,美国封锁伊朗的决定,导致伊朗无法向中国供应能源(中国在2024年和2025年占伊朗原油进口量的90%),促使德黑兰“以更加和解的态度重返谈判桌”。 劳恩指出,伊朗的武器和导弹项目依赖中国的投入,而封锁暴露了这一弱点。 周四,美国国防部长皮特·赫格塞斯在新闻发布会上警告伊朗,如果伊朗未能达成和平协议,美国在中东的部队随时准备重启对伊朗的军事行动。 他警告说:“如果伊朗做出错误的选择,那么他们将面临封锁,基础设施、电力和能源设施将遭受轰炸。” 据霍尔木兹海峡监测机构(Hormuz Strait Monitor)的数据显示,过去24小时内,通过霍尔木兹海峡的船只数量略有增加,共有19艘船只通过。 但根据英国联合海事信息中心(Joint Maritime Information Center)的数据,这一数字仍远低于通常的日均138艘船只通行量。 因此,澳新银行(ANZ)高级大宗商品策略师丹尼尔·海恩斯(Daniel Hynes)指出,尽管人们对达成潜在和平协议的乐观情绪日益高涨,但由于海峡实际上仍然处于关闭状态,交易员们仍然意识到“供应仍然严重受限”。 他将近期能源价格的回落归因于“投资基金近期积累的大量净多头头寸的平仓”。 据欧洲天然气基础设施协会(Gas Infrastructure Europe)的数据显示,欧洲天然气库存继续保持净增长,目前库存占总容量的29.55%,低于去年同期的35.97%。
