石油设备网讯 据路透社5月13日报道,布伦特原油价格周一上涨,收于每桶71.77美元,因供应担忧加剧,布伦特原油价格收复了此前的失地。阿联酋时间下午3点左右,布伦特原油期货上涨1.15美元。美国西德克萨斯中质原油(WTI)期货价格为每桶62.49美元,上涨83美分。在美国对生产商实施严厉制裁、俄罗斯在欧洲的石油流动中断以及大西洋盆地和亚洲油田的维护之后,全球供应收紧。
同样在周一,最大的原油出口国沙特阿拉伯表示,停泊在世界上最大的加油中心之一富查伊拉海岸的两艘油轮成为“蓄意破坏”袭击的目标。该国能源部长哈立德·法利赫(Khalid Al Falih)在一份关于国家媒体机构SPA的声明中表示,属于国家生产商Saudi Aramco的一艘船正在前往沙特东部港口拉斯塔努拉的途中,船上装载供美国客户使用的原油。该部表示,没有人员伤亡或石油泄漏,但是袭击造成了两艘船只的“重大结构损坏”。
欧佩克盟国沙特阿拉伯和阿联酋定于周五在沙特红海港口吉达举行会议,审查它们对主权产油国限制供应的全球协议的义务。他们在上月底承诺,如果有必要,将提高产量,这些原油将在美国取消豁免后流入市场。

Oil gains as geopolitical risks tighten supply forecast
Brent crude prices rose on Monday, trading at $71.77 per barrel after recouping earlier losses, as supply concerns increased.Brent crude futures by mid afternoon UAE time were up $1.15. US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) futures were at $62.49 per barrel, up 83 cents. Global supplies have tightened after stringent US sanctions on producers, disruptions of Russian oil flows in Europe and maintenance at oilfields in the Atlantic Basin and Asia.
Also on Monday, Saudi Arabia, the largest crude exporter said two of its tankers anchored off the coast of Fujairah, one the world’s biggest bunkering hubs, were the target of a "sabotage" attack. The country’s energy minister Khalid Al Falih said in a statement on state media agency SPA that one of the vessels belonging to state producer Saudi Aramco was on its way to the eastern Saudi port of Ras Tanura be loaded with crude for customers in the US. The ministry said there were no casualties or oil spill, however the attacks caused "significant damage to the structures” of both vessels.
Opec allies Saudi Arabia and the UAE are set to meet in the Saudi Red Sea port of Jeddah on Friday to review their obligations to a global pact of sovereign producers to restrict supply. They had pledged at the end of last month to boost output that would be lost to the markets following the US cancellation of waivers.
