据道琼斯3月11日消息,根据贝克休斯公司提供的数据,最近一周美国石油和天然气钻机减少9部,至480部,为有纪录以来的最低水平。
被视为能源工业活动指标的美国钻机数量已经大幅减少,因为在过去的两年中油气价格大幅下挫。
石油钻机减少6部,至386部,为2009年以来的最低水平。天然气钻机减少3部,至94部,为贝克休斯自1987年开始单独统计石油和天然气钻机数以来的最低水平。

U.S. Oil and Natural-Gas Rig Count Falls to Record Low
The number of rigs drilling for oil and natural gas in the U.S. fell by nine to 480 in the latest week, the lowest level on record, according to Baker Hughes Inc. data going back to late 1948.
The number of U.S. drilling rigs, viewed as a proxy for activity in the energy industry, has fallen sharply as oil and natural-gas prices have slumped in the past two years.
The oil-rig count fell by six to 386 in the latest week, the lowest level since 2009. The number of natural-gas rigs fell by three to 94, the lowest level since Baker Hughes began to separately count oil and natural-gas rigs in 1987.
