-- 美國能源部週四發布了一份徵求建議書(RFP),擬從戰略石油儲備(SPR)緊急調撥至多3,000萬桶低硫原油。 此舉是能源部執行先前1.72億桶原油釋放計畫的又一舉措。該計畫是國際能源總署成員國為穩定全球石油市場而協調釋放4億桶原油計畫的一部分。 能源部表示,將繼續發布徵求建議書,作為此次協調釋放計畫的一部分。 有意向者須於美國中部時間4月13日上午11:00前提交投標書。 此次原油將來自戰略石油儲備的西哈克貝裡(West Hackberry)油田。先前,能源部已發布兩份緊急調撥建議書,從包括巴尤喬克托(Bayou Choctaw)、布萊恩蒙德(Bryan Mound)和西哈克貝裡在內的多個戰略石油儲備設施中調撥了總計5500萬桶原油。 「今天的行動加強了將石油快速投放市場、應對短期供應壓力的努力,」美國能源部油氣和地熱能源辦公室助理部長凱爾·豪斯特維特表示。 “此前兩次石油交換已經取得了成效,我們正在鞏固這一勢頭,”他說道,並補充說,之後將歸還借出的優質原油,“以增強長期供應能力,且不會增加納稅人的負擔。” 根據能源部的交換授權,參與此行動的公司將在明年之前歸還借出的3,000萬桶原油以及額外的優質原油。
