-- 週三盤後交易中,歐洲天然氣期貨價格延續跌勢,原因是市場對美伊可能重啟第二輪談判的樂觀情緒升溫,認為此舉可望緩解地緣政治緊張局勢並改善供應前景。 荷蘭TTF近月合約下跌4.83%,至每兆瓦時41.27歐元(48.71美元);英國NBP期貨下跌4.68%,至每熱量單位103.66便士(1.41美元)。 Trading Economics週三表示,由於華盛頓和德黑蘭之間外交努力重啟的跡象提振了市場情緒,天然氣價格跌破每兆瓦時42歐元,觸及六週多以來的最低水平,並延續了前一交易日的跌勢。 美國總統川普週二表示,與伊朗的談判可能在幾天內重啟,這番言論導致天然氣價格走弱。儘管媒體報道稱,伊朗威脅要停止區域貿易以回應美國對霍爾木茲海峽的海上封鎖,但天然氣價格週三仍承壓。據報道,巴基斯坦調解人也在努力重啟談判,以期在下週停火協議到期前維持停火。 歐洲氣溫將升高,預計未來幾週暖氣需求將受到抑制,這也給天然氣價格帶來了額外的下行壓力。歐洲天然氣基礎設施協會(Gas Infrastructure Europe)報告稱,需求下降和價格走低預計將使歐盟天然氣庫存更容易補充,目前歐盟天然氣庫存僅略低於產能的30%,比一年前低約5個百分點。 相較之下,由於持續的供應中斷,北亞天然氣價格上漲並接近每百萬英熱單位20美元。澳新銀行分析師 Daniel Hynes週三表示,美國對霍爾木茲海峽的封鎖可能會延長供應中斷,目前全球約五分之一的液化天然氣供應已從市場上消失。 海恩斯補充說,這些幹擾已將亞洲液化天然氣進口量推至 2020 年以來的最低水準。印度石油公司和印度天然氣有限公司並未授予 4 月和 5 月的現貨貨物招標,而中國的天然氣進口量在 3 月有所下降。
