据路透社5月29日报道,沙特阿拉伯和其他欧佩克成员正在讨论减产协议延期的可能性,将欧佩克+目前的减产水平延长至年底,以支持市场。
欧佩克在4月承诺,在5月和6月将日产量削减970万桶,之后将7月至12月的日产量减少770万桶。根据消息人士透露,沙特希望将每日减产970万桶的计划延长至2020年底,以实现市场再平衡。
欧佩克+预计6月9日和10日召开电话会议,讨论市场基本面和可能对他们4月份达成的协议进行的调整,即再需求疲弱的情况下,削减近10%的全球石油产量以支撑市场。
沙特认为市场仍需要获得支持,希望将同样的减产措施延续到年底。俄罗斯也希望如此,但问题再次出现在了石油公司身上。
俄罗斯石油公司采取的是典型的“观望”态度,不愿做出承诺,据报道,其需要考虑石油需求的恢复程度。
本周早些时候,俄罗斯能源部长亚历山大·诺瓦克(Alexander Novak)与石油行业高管讨论了将目前的石油减产量延长至6月以后的可能性。
据一位熟悉会议细节的知情人士透露,会俄罗斯的石油公司在周二会议上未能达成任何协议,延长目前的减产计划,这意味着俄罗斯将石油产量从约1100万桶/天削减至850万桶/天,而另外一半的石油高管反对按照欧佩克+协议延长大幅削减措施,并呼吁放宽生产限制。
俄罗斯官员和业内消息人士周三对彭博社表示,俄罗斯计划坚持4月份达成的欧佩克+协议,并在6月30日之后放宽削减幅度。

Saudi Arabia Wants Record Oil Output Cuts To Last Till End 2020
Saudi Arabia and several other members of OPEC are discussing the possibility of extending the current level of OPEC+ production cuts to the end of the year to support the market, but Russia could be the stumbling block again, Reuters reported on Thursday, citin8ug sources at OPEC+ and i9Russia’s oil industry.
The OPEC+ group pledged in April production restrictions of 9.7 million bpd in May and June, before easing the cuts to 7.7 million bpd for July through December.
According to Reuters’ sources, Saudi Arabia would like to see the deeper 9.7-million-bpd cut extended through the end of 2020 to rebalance the market.
OPEC and the OPEC+ group are expected to meet via teleconference on June 9 and 10 to discuss the market fundamentals and possible tweaks to the deal they forged in April to cut nearly 10 percent of global oil production to support the market while demand is weak during the pandemic.
“The Saudis see that the market still needs support and want to roll over the same cuts until end of the year. The Russians also want the same but the problem again is with the oil companies,” a source at OPEC+ told Reuters.
Russia, in its typical ‘wait-and-see’ approach, is non-committal and reportedly prefers to wait to see how much oil demand will recover.
Earlier this week, Russia’s Energy Minister Alexander Novak discussed with oil executives the possible extension of the current oil production cuts beyond June.
According to a source familiar with the details of the meeting who spoke to Reuters, Russia’s oil companies failed to reach any agreement at the Tuesday meeting, as half of the firms supported the extension of the current cuts—which means Russia cutting production from around 11 million bpd to 8.5 million bpd—while the other half of the oil executives were against extending the deep cuts and calling for the easing of the cuts, as per the OPEC+ agreement.
Russia plans to stick to the OPEC+ deal reached in April and ease the cuts after June 30, Russian officials and industry sources told Bloomberg on Wednesday.
