据路透社10月16日休斯敦报道,美国第三大油田服务公司贝克休斯公司(BHI)16日在休斯敦公布的统计数据显示,美国能源公司在16日结束的那周里连续第七周削减了他们在用的石油钻机数,这表明低油价继续促使钻井商远离井场。
贝克休斯公司16日在其密切跟踪的报告中说,上周钻井商减少了10部在用石油钻机,使在用石油钻机总数减少到了595部,这是2010年7月以来的最低在用石油钻机数。在过去的6周内,钻井商共削减了70部石油钻机。
上周美国在用石油钻机总数已不到去年同期1590部石油钻机数的一半。自从去年10月份达到1609部在用石油钻机总数历史最高以来,美国在用石油钻机数平均每周减少了20部。

Baker Hughes: US Oil Drillers Cut Rigs For 7th Week

Friday, October 16, 2015
U.S. energy companies cut oil rigs this week for a seventh week in a row, the longest streak of reductions since June, data showed on Friday, a sign low prices continued to keep drillers away from the well pad.
Drillers removed 10 oil rigs in the week ended Oct. 16, bringing the total rig count down to 595, the least since July 2010. Over the prior six weeks, drillers had cut 70 rigs, oil services company Baker Hughes Inc said in its closely followed report.
That total was less than half the 1,590 oil rigs in the prior year. Since hitting an all-time high of 1,609 in October last year, weekly rig count reductions have averaged about 20.
