石油设备网讯 据彭博社2019年8月5日利雅得报道,全球最大的石油出口国沙特阿拉伯日前下调了其9月份出口亚洲所有原油的销售价格,同时提高了对欧洲西北部和地中海地区买家的价格。
沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司(沙特阿美)周日在一份电子邮件声明中表示,该公司将其旗舰产品阿拉伯轻质原油的亚洲买家价格下调了75美分,至每桶比阿曼-迪拜中东基准原油高出1.70美元。彭博社早些时候调查的交易商和炼油商曾预计,阿拉伯轻质原油油价将比阿曼-迪拜中东基准油价高出1.80美元。
今年7月,沙特阿拉伯与其“欧佩克+”伙伴国达成协议,将在未来9个月内进一步减产。尽管沙特阿美对亚洲不断增加的原油出口被对美国不断下降的原油出口所抵消,但沙特阿拉伯对中国的原油出口比以往任何时候都要多。

Aramco Cuts Oil Pricing for Sept. Sales to Asia
Saudi Arabia, the world’s biggest oil exporter, lowered pricing for September sales of all crudes to Asia while raising prices to buyers in northwest Europe and the Mediterranean region.
State-owned Saudi Aramco cut pricing for its flagship Arab Light crude to buyers in Asia by 75 cents, to a $1.70 a barrel premium over the Oman-Dubai Middle Eastern benchmark, the company said on Sunday in an emailed statement. Traders and refiners that Bloomberg surveyed earlier had anticipated a premium of $1.80 a barrel to the benchmark.
Saudi Arabia agreed in July to curb production for nine additional months alongside its OPEC+ partners. Even so, the kingdom has been able to export more to China than ever before, as increasing volumes to Asia have been offset by declining sales to the U.S., where buyers are awash with domestic supplies.
