据World Energy News网站3月16日休斯敦报道,美国能源信息署(EIA)16日公布的统计数据显示,尽管汽油和馏分油库存量减少超过预期以及原油进口量减少,然而,美国的原油库存量在11日结束的那周里连续第五周增加到了一个新的历史最高纪录。
统计数据显示,上周美国原油库存量增加了130万桶,上周原油库存增加数远远少于分析师预测将增加340万桶。
EIA的统计数据显示,上周美国汽油库存量减少了74.7万桶,而路透社调查的分析师曾预测将减少230万桶。上周美国包括柴油和取暖油在内的馏分油库存量减少了110万桶,这个数字符合预期。
据统计,上周美国原油进口平均每天减少了35.5万桶。

Houston
U.S. crude stocks rose last week for a fifth straight week reaching a new record high even as gasoline and distillate inventories fell and imports eased, data from the Energy Information Administration showed on Wednesday.
Crude inventories increased by 1.3 million barrels in the week to March 11, a much smaller inflow than the 3.4 million-barrel increase expected by analysts.
Gasoline stocks fell by 747,000 barrels, compared with analysts' expectations in a Reuters poll for a 2.3 million-barrel drop.
Distillate stockpiles, which include diesel and heating oil, fell by 1.1 million barrels, inline with expectations, the EIA data showed.
U.S. crude imports fell last week by 355,000 barrels per day.
