據(jù)油價網(wǎng)2023年8月16日報道，美國能源信息署（EIA）8月16日公布8月11日當周原油庫存下降600萬桶以后，原油價格小幅走低。

相比之下，前一周的庫存增加590萬桶，而7月最后一周的庫存減少1700萬桶，這是多年來最大的庫存減少。

8月15日，美國石油學會(API)估計，8月11日當周原油庫存將減少620萬桶。

在燃料方面，EIA估計8月11日當周庫存水平的變化喜憂參半。報告期內(nèi)汽油庫存減少30萬桶，汽油平均日產(chǎn)量為960萬桶。相比之下，上周的庫存減少270萬桶，當時的汽油平均日產(chǎn)量為990萬桶。

在中間餾分油方面，EIA估計8月份第二周庫存將增加30萬桶。平均日產(chǎn)量為470萬桶。相比之下，上周庫存減少170萬桶，當時中間餾分油產(chǎn)量日均為490萬桶。

路透社援引澳新銀行(ANZ)分析師的話報道說：“對經(jīng)濟疲軟將拖累需求的擔憂，抵消了石油市場供應(yīng)緊張的影響。”

Oil Gives Up Gains Despite Large Crude Draw

Crude oil prices moved slightly lower today after the Energy Information Administration reported an inventory decline of 6 million barrels for the week to August 11.

That change compared with a build of 5.9 million barrels for the previous week, which in turn followed the biggest inventory draw in years, at 17 million barrels for the last week of July.

A day earlier, the American Petroleum Institute estimated crude oil inventories had shed 6.2 million barrels in the week to August 11.

In fuels, the EIA estimated mixed changes in weekly inventory levels.

Gasoline inventories shed a modest 300,000 barrels in the reporting period, with production averaging 9.6 million bpd.

This compared with an inventory draw of 2.7 million barrels for the previous week, when production averaged 9.9 million barrels daily.

In middle distillates, the EIA estimated an inventory increase of 300,000 barrels for the second week of August. Production averaged 4.7 million barrels daily.

That compared with an inventory draw of 1.7 million barrels for the previous week, when middle distillate production averaged 4.9 million bpd.

"Concerns that faltering economy will weigh on demand offset tight supply in the oil market," ANZ analysts said, as quoted by Reuters.
