据路透社1月8日报道，阿联酋能源部长周三表示，欧佩克将在必要时对任何可能的石油短缺做出反应，但也有一定的“局限性”。

在阿联酋首都阿布扎比的一次会议上，该部长表示："我们无法用现有的闲置产能来替代任何开发产能。" 但他不认为会出现供应短缺的担忧，目前，全球石油需求状态良好，全球原油库存在5年平均水平上下。

OPEC will respond to any oil shortage if needed, but capacity limited - UAE energy minister

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) will respond to any possible oil shortages if necessary but it also has “limitations”, the United Arab Emirates energy minister said on Wednesday.

“We can’t replace any quantity with the spare capacity we have,” Suhail al-Mazrouei told a conference in the UAE capital Abu Dhabi.

Mazrouei said he sees no situation where there would be a fear of supply shortage and that demand was healthy and global oil inventories were “hovering” around the 5-year average.
