据道琼斯8月4日消息,总部位于伦敦的Energy Aspects公司表示,中期油价维持在40美元/桶的水平对于石油行业来说将成为灾难。分析师们在一份报告中称,当前油价低于50美元/桶的石油环境已经令委内瑞拉和尼日利亚这样的一些产油大国屈服,同时正在削弱国际石油公司,这在国际石油公司最近的业绩报告中得到证实。

Oil Industry Not Sustainable At $40
The prospect of oil levelling and remaining at $40 a barrel for the medium-term would be disastrous for the oil industry according to the London-based Energy Aspects. In a note, the analysts say that the recent sub-$50 a barrel oil environment has brought several large producers, such as Venezuela and Nigeria, to their knees and is crippling international oil companies as the recent round of earnings announcements proved.
