据普氏能源资讯11月9日休斯敦报道,美国能源信息署(EIA)9日表示,12月份来自美国页岩远景区的原油产量预计将日减11.8万桶,日产量将下降到494万桶,这将是今年5月份以来的最大月度减少。
EIA在其最新一期的月度钻井生产力报告中说,相比之下,在过去的8个月里,来自美国7个主要页岩远景区原油产量的预计总跌幅一直在每天10万桶以下。
EIA在4月份曾预测,美国在过去一年半里导致全球市场供应过剩的原油产量的多年激增将在下个月开始逆转。
报告指出,位于南德州的鹰滩页岩远景区12月份原油日产量将减少7.8万桶至127.8万桶,这将是7个页岩远景区中最大的月度跌幅,该远景区11月份预计日减7.1万桶原油产量。
此外,位于北达科他州和蒙大拿州的巴肯页岩远景区12月份原油日产量预计减少2.7万桶至110万桶,而11月份预计日减2.3万桶。位于科罗拉多州和怀俄明州的奈厄布拉勒页岩远景区12月份原油日产量预计减少2.2万桶至35.6万桶,而11月份预计日减2万桶。

US oil production from shale may drop by 118,000 b/d in December: EIA
Houston (Platts)--9 Nov 2015
Crude oil production from US shale plays is forecast to drop in December by 118,000 b/d to 4.94 million b/d, the biggest monthly fall since May, the US Energy Information Administration said Monday.
By contrast, the projected aggregate decline in production from the US' seven major shale plays has always been below 100,000 b/d in the previous eight months, EIA said in its latest monthly Drilling Productivity Report. The agency predicted April that the US' multi-year surge in crude output that has contributed to a global excess of barrels on the market in the past year and a half would begin to reverse the following month.
The region likely to show the largest reduction in December is the Eagle Ford Shale in South Texas -- 78,000 b/d, for total production there of 1.278 million b/d, EIA said. That compares with a loss of 71,000 b/d forecast for November.
In addition, production in the Bakken Shale of North Dakota and Montana is forecast to fall by 27,000 b/d in December to 1.110 million b/d, compared to a projection of 23,000 b/d this month. And in the Niobara Shale of Colorado and Wyoming, oil production should fall by 22,000 b/d in December to 356,000 b/d. For November, a 20,000 b/d drop was predicted.
