道明银行预计,油价上涨将提振加拿大第二季度出口额。

By

-- 道明银行(TD)表示,加拿大3月份商品贸易顺差由上月的51亿加元逆差转为18亿加元顺差。 继2月份强劲增长之后,3月份出口环比增长8.5%。能源价格快速上涨推动原油出口环比增长18.9%,而未加工黄金、白银和铂金的出口环比大幅增长37.7%。 与此同时,汽车及零部件出口(环比增长4.5%)在3月份再次增长,延续了1月份低迷水平后的复苏势头。总共11个产品类别中有7个类别实现了增长。 道明银行指出,3月份的贸易数据显示整体贸易活动有所回暖,但出口增长全部来自油价上涨带来的价格影响。 截至3月份的数据表明,净贸易额仍将拖累2026年第一季度实际国内生产总值增长,这反映出进口额在本季度普遍走强。 展望未来,据该银行称,油价上涨应会“显著”提振第二季度名义出口额,从而有助于进一步改善贸易平衡。

Equinor Starts Eirin Field, Boosts European Gas Supply

Equinor (EQNR) has brought the Eirin field online, unlocking about 27.6 million barrels of oil equivalent in recoverable resources, mainly gas, to support European supply, the company said in a Tuesday statement.The company is exporting gas from Eirin through the Gina Krog and Sleipner A platforms in the North Sea, strengthening flows from Norway to Europe, Equinor said.Equinor developed the subsea field in about three years from project launch to production start, the company noted.The company discovered Eirin in 1978 but shelved the project due to weak economics, then reassessed the field in 2023 as demand for Norwegian gas increased after Russia's invasion of Ukraine, it said.Equinor invested about 4.5 billion Norwegian kroner ($486.5 million) to develop the field, tying the subsea facility back to the Gina Krog platform and exporting gas via the Sleipner hub.The project will extend the Gina Krog platform's operational life to 2036 from 2029, supporting continued production and preserving associated jobs.Equinor electrified the Gina Krog platform in 2023, enabling low emissions from Eirin, with a carbon intensity of about 3 kilograms of CO2 per barrel of oil equivalent produced."The partnership saw an opportunity to contribute to Europe's energy security in a challenging time. We made an ambitious plan for a fast, cost effective and safe development," Linda Kada Hoiland, senior vice president at Equinor, said."Eirin will extend production from the Gina Krog platform by seven years," Hoiland said, adding that the project will deliver gas to Europe while supporting value creation and jobs linked to the asset.Price: $41.57, Change: $+0.25, Percent Change: +0.61%
