美國石油市場最新消息:美伊緊張局勢加劇,期貨價格暴跌

By

-- 週四午盤交易中,原油期貨價格小幅走低,此前有報道稱,美國總統川普將聽取有關美伊對峙加劇之際擴大對伊軍事選項的簡報。 近月西德州中質原油期貨下跌2.27%,至每桶104.37美元;布蘭特原油期貨下跌3.51%,至每桶113.88美元。 由於中東供應持續中斷,全球買家轉向美國生產商尋求替代供應,上周美國原油出口激增。美國能源資訊署的最新數據顯示,截至4月24日當週,美國原油庫存減少620萬桶,至4.595億桶。 荷蘭國際集團(ING)策略師週四在一份報告中指出:「這是歷史新高,超過了2023年2月創下的563萬桶/日的紀錄。」他們還指出,強勁的出口量正日益收緊美國國內市場供應。 美國能源資訊署(EIA)表示,目前的庫存比五年同期平均高出約1%。 川普總統正在評估新的軍事選項,同時繼續對伊朗港口實施嚴格的海上封鎖,這表明在談判陷入僵局的情況下,他採取了強硬立場。 據報道,美國總統將聽取美國中央司令部司令布拉德·庫珀海軍上將的簡報,了解一系列針對伊朗的新軍事打擊計劃,以迫使伊朗就結束衝突的協議進行談判。 與此同時,伊朗當局誓言,如果華盛頓再次發動襲擊,伊朗將對美國陣地進行“持久而猛烈的打擊”,並重新控制霍爾木茲海峽。 伊朗革命衛隊表示,任何新的美國軍事侵略都將觸發伊朗先前未公開的能力,包括先進的智慧目標瞄準系統。 伊朗伊斯蘭革命衛隊空軍司令馬吉德·穆薩維表示:“你們已經看到了你們在該地區的基地的命運;你們也將看到你們軍艦的命運。” 伊朗最高領袖穆傑塔巴·哈梅內伊也表示,在新管理模式下,德黑蘭將消除他所稱的敵人對該水道的濫用,伊朗正努力加強對這一關鍵咽喉要道的控制。 在供應方面,霍爾木茲海峽中斷導致原油流量銳減近兩個月後,全球石油市場正經歷脆弱的再平衡,有限的系統彈性使得供應仍然緊張。 數據分析公司Kpler表示,中斷發生約60天后,通過這項關鍵咽喉要道的石油流量仍接近最低水平,從4月的約2,000萬桶/日降至約100萬桶/日。 據克普勒稱,霍爾木茲海峽的交通仍然有限且不平衡,過境船隻的航行方向持續嚴重失衡。截至4月29日,共記錄到12艘船隻過境,比前一天增加4艘,所有船隻均由西向東航行,未觀察到返程船隻。
