中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社7月19日迪拜报道,沙特阿拉伯的石油输出国组织理事周四表示,沙特阿拉伯预计其8月份原油日出口量将减少约10万桶,因为这个世界最大的石油出口国正在努力确保石油供应不会超出市场需求。
Adeeb Al-Aama在一份声明中表示,沙特7月份的原油出口将大致相当于6月份的水平。这在沙特6月原油出口量的声明中没有提及。
一位业内知情人士称,沙特6月石油日出口量约为720万桶,而最新官方数据显示,5月石油日出口量为698.4万桶。
Al-Aama表示,沙特的政策是努力满足客户的需求,但同时要遵守欧佩克和非欧佩克的供应协议。
欧佩克和非欧佩克表示,在减产数月后,将恢复先前达成的减产协议的100%遵守率,以增加供应。这意味着日产量将增加约100万桶。
沙特阿拉伯对欧佩克表示,其上月石油日产量为1048.8万桶,较其公布的5月份的生产水平增加了45.8万桶。
欧佩克消息人士对路透表示,沙特6月原油供应总量甚至高于井口产量,这表明沙特从库存中出售原油。

Saudi oil exports to drop by roughly 100,000 BPD in Aug: Saudi OPEC governor
Saudi Arabia expects its crude exports to drop by roughly 100,000 barrels per day in August as the world's top oil exporter works to ensure it does not push oil into the market beyond its customers' needs, the kingdom's OPEC governor said on Thursday.
Adeeb Al-Aama said in a statement that Saudi Arabia's crude oil exports in July would be roughly equal to June levels. There was no mention in the statement of Saudi June crude exports.
An industry source familiar with the matter said Saudi oil exports in June were about 7.2 million bpd, while the latest official figures show May exports at 6.984 million bpd.
Al-Aama said Saudi Arabia's policy is to work on satisfying customers' needs, but to do so while adhering to OPEC and non-OPEC supply agreements.
OPEC and non-OPEC said they would raise supply by returning to 100 percent compliance with previously agreed output cuts, after months of underproduction. That would mean a roughly 1 million bpd increase in output.
Saudi Arabia has told OPEC it pumped 10.488 million bpd of crude oil last month, an increase of 458,000 bpd from the level it said it produced in May.
The kingdom's total crude supply to the market in June were even higher than well-head production, OPEC sources told Reuters, suggesting the Kingdom sold crude from storage.
