據能源世界網3月27日莫斯科報道，俄羅斯副能源部長帕維爾·索羅金周五(Pavel Sorokin) 表示，石油供應量的下降或許能使全球市場在一年左右的時間內達到平衡，同時應關注受到疫情造成的需求影響。

本月早些時候，索洛金告訴路透社，他預計在4-6個月內將看到全球那些耗資巨大的項目將出現產量下降的跡象。

他在周五舉行的經濟會議Valdai論壇上表示，市場可能會很快平衡，但不會在一兩個月內平衡；這還需要一年或更長時間。

他還表示，世界上最大的生產國美國的石油產量今年可能每天下降150萬桶，而油價在每桶30-35美元之間。

在本月早些時候石油出口國組織和包括俄羅斯在內的其他主要石油生產國之間的談判破裂后，今年油價下跌了近三分之二。

索羅金周五表示，歐佩克與其他國家仍在接觸。 他重申，歐佩克+不能單獨減少石油產量，暗示美國也應聯合削減石油。

俄羅斯主權財富基金負責人基里爾·德米特里耶夫（Kirill Dmitriev）周五早些時候也對路透社稱，如果其他國家加入，可能有一項新的OPEC +協議來平衡石油市場。

Russia says fall in oil supply may balance market in a year

A decline in oil supply may lead to the global market balancing out in a year or so, while demand, hurt by the coronavirus pandemic, should be watched, Russian Deputy Energy Minister Pavel Sorokin said on Friday.

Earlier this month, Sorokin told Reuters he expected to see the first signs of lower oil production at costly projects worldwide in 4-6 months.

"The market may balance out quite quickly, but not in a month or two; that will still take a year or more," he told the Valdai discussion forum, an economic conference which was conducted online on Friday.

He also said oil output in the United States, the world's largest producer, could fall by 1.5 million barrels per day this year with the oil price at $30-$35 per barrel.

Oil prices are down nearly two thirds this year following the collapse of talks earlier this month between the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and other leading oil producers including Russia.

Sorokin said on Friday that OPEC and the other countries, a group known as the OPEC+, have still been in contact. He reiterated that OPEC+ cannot reduce oil production alone, hinting that the United States should also joint the cuts.

Kirill Dmitriev, head of Russia's sovereign wealth fund, also told Reuters earlier on Friday that a new OPEC+ deal to balance oil markets might be possible if other countries join in.
