石油设备网讯 据阿联酋国民日报6月13日报道，由于中东的另一次油轮事故推高了油价，布伦特原油扭转了最近的损失，上涨了2美元。
据英国海军管理的英国海上贸易行动组织称，阿曼湾发生了一起“不明事件”。彭博社报道，驻扎在巴林麦纳麦的美国第五舰队称，两艘油轮在事故中受损。
这一事件是过去几个月来影响中东油轮和石油基础设施的最新事件。5月，两辆属于沙特阿美的油轮因蓄意破坏袭击而遭受重大损坏。其中一艘船正前往沙特东部港口拉斯塔努拉，装载着运给美国客户的原油。
这些事件推高了布伦特原油的价格，布伦特原油是5月份轻质低硫原油每桶70美元以上的基准，因为市场观察人士表示，更高的地缘政治风险溢价将越来越多地计入油价。
自上周跌至今年1月以来的最低水平后，油价下跌了16%。

Oil climbs as Gulf of Oman incident heightens regional risk
Brent reversed its recent losses and gained $2 as another tanker incident in the Middle East, pushed prices higher.
An "unspecified incident” had taken place in the Gulf of Oman, according to the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations, which is run by the British navy. The US Fifth Fleet, which is stationed in Manama, Bahrain, said two oil tankers were damaged in the incident, Bloomberg reported. The US Fifth Fleet did not immediately respond to a comment request from The National.
The incident is the latest affecting tankers and oil infrastructure in Middle East over the last couple of months.
In May, two tankers belonging to Saudi Aramco suffered significant damage as a result of sabotage attacks. One of the vessels had been on its way to the eastern Saudi port of Ras Tanura to be loaded with crude destined for customers in the US.
The incidents had pushed Brent, the benchmark for light, sweet crude above $70 per barrel In May, as market observers said a higher geopolitical risk premium would be increasingly factored into prices.
Oil had been on the wane since falling to its lowest last week since January, declining 16 per cent in three weeks.
