据全球石油新闻2020年1月10日新加坡报道,一位市场消息人士周五表示,卡塔尔石油公司(QP)日前下调了2月份装运的卡塔尔陆上原油和卡塔尔海上原油等级货物的指示性价格。
这位消息人士说,QP把2月份卡塔尔陆上原油和卡塔尔海上原油的指示性价格每桶环比分别下调了75美分至3.8美元和20美分至2.85美元,仍高于普氏阿曼/迪拜的平均估价。
这是QP第3个月发布这两个原油等级的前瞻性指示性价格,为其制定前瞻性官方销售价格(OSP)做准备。
此举将使卡塔尔与沙特阿拉伯等多数中东产油国保持一致,这些产油国把OSP设定在前瞻性的基础上。
QP目前在追溯性基础上为卡塔尔陆上原油和卡塔尔海上原油发布OSP,而这个价格在货物在特定月份装船后发布。

Qatar Petroleum cuts indicative crude price differentials for Feb
Qatar Petroleum cut the indicative price of February-loading cargoes of its Qatar Land and Qatar Marine crude grades for term lifters, a market source told Friday.
The company slashed the indicative price for February Qatar Land by 75 cents/b month on month to $3.80/b and Qatar Marine by 20 cents/b month on month to $2.85/b over the average of Platts Oman/Dubai assessments.
This is the third month Qatar Petroleum has issued forward-looking indicative prices for the two grades, in preparation for its move to setting forward-looking official selling prices.
The move will bring it in line with the majority of the Middle Eastern producers, such as Saudi Arabia, who set their OSPs on a prospective basis.
QP currently issues OSPs for Qatar Land and Qatar Marine crude on a retroactive basis, with prices issued after the cargoes have loaded for a particular month.
