-- 週三,伊朗在霍爾木茲海峽扣押兩艘船後,油價上漲。就在幾個小時前,美國總統川普無限期推遲了對伊朗的軍事打擊。 近月穆爾班原油期貨價格上漲4.9%,至每桶100.99美元;布蘭特原油期貨價格上漲1.8%,至每桶100.24美元。 分析人士表示,這起扣押船隻事件表明,隨著海上封鎖持續癱瘓地區能源流動,德黑蘭的立場正在強硬。 美國總統川普週二表示,他延長了與伊朗的停火協議,同時維持封鎖,並推遲了原定的軍事行動,因為談判前景仍然不明朗。 川普在Truth Social網站上發文表示:“…應巴基斯坦陸軍元帥阿西姆·穆尼爾和總理謝赫巴茲·謝里夫的要求,我們被要求暫停對伊朗的攻擊,直到他們的領導人和代表能夠提出統一的方案。” 儘管川普總統應巴基斯坦的要求推遲了對伊朗的軍事行動,但霍爾木茲海峽的持續關閉正在抑制全球石油需求。 盛寶銀行分析師表示:“衝突正在抑制供應,需求減少近400萬桶/日,甚至可能增至500萬桶/日,主要影響亞洲地區。” 供應方面,美國石油協會週二公佈的數據顯示,截至4月17日當週,美國原油庫存減少了440萬桶。 目前,石油市場正等待美國能源資訊署將於週三發布的石油庫存報告。
