据能源世界网11月17日纽约报道，美国能源信息署（EIA）在周一的月度预测中称，预计12月美国页岩气的石油日产量将下降约13.9万桶，至每天约751万桶，为6月以来的最低水平。

根据数据显示，除Haynesville地区产量预计将基本保持稳定外，几乎所有7个主要储层的产量预计都将下降。降幅最大的预计是德克萨斯州和新墨西哥州的二叠纪盆地，其日产量预计将减少约3.7万桶，为5月以来最大降幅，至430万桶。

第二大降幅预计将出现在巴肯地区，预计该地区日产量将连续第三个月下降，减少约3.25万桶，至113万桶。

预计页岩油总产量将连续第三个月下降，并创下自5月份以来的最大降幅，当时生产商削减了约160万桶/天的产量，以抵消由于冠状疫情造成的全球石油需求的下降。

然而，由于寄希望于疫苗支撑油价，产量正在缓慢恢复。

根据能源服务公司贝克休斯（Baker Hughes）的数据显示，上周美国石油钻机增加10台至236台，为5月以来最高水平。

U.S. shale oil output to drop 139,000 bpd to 7.51 mln bpd in Dec- EIA

U.S. oil output from shale formations is expected to decline by about 139,000 barrels per day (bpd) in December to about 7.51 million bpd, the lowest level since June, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said in a monthly forecast on Monday.

Output at nearly all seven major formations is expected to fall, except the Haynesville region, where output is forecast to remain largely steady. The biggest decline is expected to come from the Permian basin of Texas and New Mexico, where production is expected to drop by about 37,000 bpd, the biggest decline since May, to 4.3 million bpd, the data showed.

The second biggest drop is forecast to be in the Bakken, where output is expected to decline for the third straight month, by about 32,500 bpd, to 1.13 million bpd.

Overall shale output is expected to decline for the third straight month, and by the most since May, when producers slashed production by about 1.6 million bpd to offset a plunge in global oil demand due to the coronavirus pandemic.

However, output is slowly recovering as hopes for a vaccine prop up oil prices .

U.S. oil rigs rose 10 to 236 last week, their highest since May, data from energy services firm Baker Hughes Co showed.
