據(jù)3月11日路透社報(bào)道，原油價(jià)格周四上漲，因新冠肺炎疫苗推出提振經(jīng)濟(jì)前景，且美國(guó)燃料庫(kù)存大幅下跌，但漲勢(shì)受上月德州風(fēng)暴后原油庫(kù)存飆升所限制。

格林尼治時(shí)間0328時(shí)，布倫特原油5月期貨上漲55美分或0.8%，至每桶68.45美元，美國(guó)4月西德克薩斯中質(zhì)原油上漲52美分或0.8%，至64.96美元。

Axi首席全球市場(chǎng)策略師Stephen Innes表示，“汽油庫(kù)存下降提供了看漲抵消，并最終使油價(jià)上漲，從而推動(dòng)了經(jīng)濟(jì)復(fù)蘇。鑒于美國(guó)重新開(kāi)放的說(shuō)法所發(fā)出的強(qiáng)大信號(hào)，這仍表明油價(jià)阻力最小的路徑是上漲。”

美國(guó)能源信息署公布，截至3月5日，美國(guó)汽油庫(kù)存減少1,190萬(wàn)桶至2.316億桶，預(yù)估僅減少350萬(wàn)桶。

不過(guò)，截至3月5日原油庫(kù)存增加了1380萬(wàn)桶至4.984億桶，而路透社調(diào)查分析師的預(yù)期為增加81.6萬(wàn)桶，因全國(guó)石油業(yè)繼續(xù)受到2月中旬冬季風(fēng)暴的影響，煉油被迫停滯導(dǎo)致克薩斯州停產(chǎn)。

從全球來(lái)看，原油庫(kù)存依然充足，據(jù)分析師和船舶跟蹤機(jī)構(gòu)稱，上周主要陸地和海洋中心的原油庫(kù)存都在增加。

Oil prices rise on economic outlook, drawdown in fuel stocks

Crude oil prices rose on Thursday as vaccine rollouts bolstered the economic outlook and U.S. fuel stocks fell sharply, although gains were capped by a surge in crude oil inventories after last month’s Texas storm.

Brent crude oil futures for May rose 55 cents, or 0.8%, to $68.45 a barrel by 0328 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude for April was up 52 cents, or 0.8%, at $64.96.

“Gasoline stocks fell... (which) provided the bullish offset and eventually sent oil prices higher on the strong demand for end products, hence an economic recovery,” said Stephen Innes, Chief Global Markets Strategist at Axi.

“Given the powerful signals from the U.S. re-opening narrative, it still suggests that the path of least resistance for oil prices is higher.”

U.S. gasoline stocks fell by 11.9 million barrels in the week to March 5 to 231.6 million barrels, the Energy Information Administration (EIA) said, compared with expectations for a 3.5 million-barrel drop.

Crude inventories, however, rose by 13.8 million barrels in the week to March 5 to 498.4 million barrels, compared with analysts’ expectations in a Reuters poll for an 816,000-barrel rise, as the nation’s oil industry continued to feel the effects of a winter storm mid-February that stalled refining and forced production shut-ins in Texas.

Globally, stocks also remain ample with crude oil in storage at major land and sea hubs rising last week, according to analysts and ship trackers.
