石油设备网讯 据离岸工程6月21日报道，布伦特原油(Brent oil)上周五上涨至65美元/桶以上，由于中东提供了全球逾五分之一的石油产量，本周有望上涨5%。
格林尼治时间12：10时，布伦特原油期货价格上涨0.69美元，至65.14美元/桶，涨幅为1.07%。6月20日，基准股指上涨4.3%，实现五周来的首次周涨幅。
美国西德克萨斯中质原油（WTI）上涨24美分，至57.31美元/桶，涨幅为0.42%。6月20日，美国基准股指周四上涨5.4%，本周有望上涨9%以上。
咨询公司FGE Energy在一份报告中表示:“毫无疑问，通过这条石油运输路线十分脆弱，严重到可能中断。”
但在需求方面，前景有所改善，在欧洲和美国央行本周暗示可能降息后，市场对风险资产的兴趣上升。
美元走软往往会支撑油价，因为原油价格通常以美元计价。
OANDA资深市场分析师Alfonso Esparza表示:“贸易焦虑情绪已经消退，可能推动能源价格走高，全球经济增长不会受到旷日持久的关税战争压力遏制。”
最近几周对经济增长放缓和美国经济增长放缓的担忧，以及国际贸易争端导致油价走低。在此之前，布伦特原油价格在4月份升至逾75美元/桶的2019年最高点。

Brent Oil Climbed 5% This Week
Brent oil rallied above $65 per barrel on Friday and was on track for a 5% gain this week, which provides more than a fifth of the world's oil output.
U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was up 24 cents, or 0.42%, at $57.31 a barrel. The U.S. benchmark surged 5.4% on Thursday and is on track for a more than 9% increase this week.
Tensions have been on the rise because U.S. sanctions on Iran have severely reduced oil exports from OPEC's third largest producer and Washington has blamed Tehran, which denies any role, for a series of attacks on oil tankers in the Gulf.
"There is no doubt that a severe disruption to the transit of oil through this vulnerable route would be extremely serious," said consultancy FGE Energy in a note.
The demand-side outlook has also improved, with appetite for risk assets rising after the European and the U.S. central banks signalled possible rate cuts this week.
A weaker greenback tends to support oil prices because crude is usually priced in dollars.
Another macroeconomic factor supporting prices is the plan by Beijing and Washington to resume talks to resolve a trade tariff war that has hit economic growth prospects.
"Trade anxiety has died down, pushing energy prices higher as global growth will not be pressured by a prolonged tariff war," said Alfonso Esparza, senior market analyst at OANDA.
Concern about slowing economic growth and a U.S.-China trade dispute had pulled oil lower in recent weeks. That came after Brent reached a 2019-high above $75 in April.
