据管道&天然气杂志网5月27日路透社报道,加拿大阿尔伯塔省能源部长索尼娅·萨维奇(Sonya Savage)告诉欧佩克,该省已将石油产量削减了四分之一,即每天减少约100万桶。
在《欧佩克公报》 4月/ 5月号上刊发的萨维奇接受采访中表示,拥有世界第三大石油储备的阿尔伯塔省削减的产量约占其产量的四分之一。
欧佩克在一份声明中表示,该省部长表示,目前没有必要宣布额外的产量调整,因为产量已自行下降。此外,该省在2019冠状病毒病之前就已经强制进行了调整,由于缺乏管道输送能力,而且无法将石油运出生产区。
高盛(Goldman Sachs)周二表示,如果油价继续保持低位,加拿大可能会宣布进一步减产。
石油输出国组织和其他大型产油国4月份同意在5 - 6月份将日产量削减近1,000万桶,相当于全球石油产量的10%。
萨维奇表示,她希望阿尔伯塔省继续参与欧佩克和主要产油国之间的未来谈判,以平衡石油市场。

Alberta Cuts Oil Output by 1 Million Barrels Per Day: Minister
The Canadian province of Alberta has cut oil output by a quarter or about 1 million barrels per day (bpd), Alberta’s energy minister, Sonya Savage, has informed OPEC.
The output cut by Alberta, home to the world’s third-largest oil reserves, represents about a quarter of its production, Savage said in an interview to be published in the April/May issue of the OPEC Bulletin.
“The Minister stated there is currently no point in announcing additional output adjustments, as production has come down on its own,” an OPEC statement said.
“Additionally, the province already had mandated adjustments in place prior to COVID-19 due to a lack of pipeline capacity and inability to move the oil out of the producing region.”
Goldman Sachs on Tuesday said Canada may announce additional production cuts if oil prices continue to remain low.
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and other large oil producers in April agreed to cut output by almost 10 million bpd, or 10% of global oil production, in May-June.
Savage said she hoped Alberta would continue to be part of future talks between OPEC and major oil producers to balance the oil markets.
