据道琼斯2月10日消息,意大利石油巨头埃尼公司开发、运营和技术负责人Roberto Casula周二表示,全球油气勘探和开采支出正削减至危险的水平。Casula表示,为了应对低油价,石油公司已经大幅削减了资本预算,但是因为需求继续增长,这种策略将带来生产商或许没有能力生产足够的石油来满足需求的风险。

Global Oil Exploration Levels Cut to "Dangerous Levels"
Global spending on exploration and production is being cut to dangerous levels, Eni's head of development, operations and technology Roberto Casula said Tuesday. Oil companies have slashed their capex budgets in response to lower prices, but as demand continues to grow this strategy creates the risk that producers may not be capable of pumping enough crude, Mr. Casula said.
