石油设备网讯 据OGJ网站5月21日休斯顿报道，美国页岩运营商有望在今年显著提高石油产量。据雷斯塔能源公司（Rystad Energy）的统计数据，今年第一季度至第四季度，美国陆上页岩油日产量可能达到110万至120万桶左右，全年增幅为16%。
受天气影响，美国页岩企业在第一季度业绩不佳。但过去几周里，这些页岩企业向投资者保证，它们将实现此前公布的生产目标，并表现出良好的资本纪律和成本控制。
雷斯塔能源公司高级分析师维罗妮卡•阿库利尼采娃表示：“尽管年初面临暂时的挑战，美国的勘探开发公司仍将实现最初的生产和资本目标，其中一些公司的表现将好于最初的预期。美国页岩企业今年的页岩油产量仍将增长16%左右。事实上，有几家运营商提高了今年剩余时间的生产预期。”

Oil from US shale on track to rise 16% in 2019
US shale operators are on course to increase oil production markedly in 2019. The growth in US onshore production from the first quarter through the fourth quarter could come in at around 1.1-1.2 million b/d, or 16% for the full year, according to Rystad Energy.
After a paltry first quarter, depressed by weather effects, US shale players over the past weeks have assured investors that they will achieve previously communicated production targets, as well as demonstrate excellent capital discipline and cost control.
“Despite temporary challenges faced in the beginning of the year, E&P companies are set to deliver on their original production and capital targets, with some being well positioned to perform above initial expectations. US shale players can still be expected to deliver around 16% oil growth in 2019. Several operators have in fact raised their production guidance for the remainder of the year,” says Veronika Akulinitseva, senior analyst at Rystad Energy.
