欧佩克正在令美国页岩油生产商处于困境空调电机

据道琼斯3月9日消息，欧佩克秘书长巴德里周日表示，在油价大跌之际欧佩克做出的维持原油产量不变的决定正在令美国页岩油行业处于困境，可能造成原油供应短缺，进而将再次推动市场走高。

巴德里在巴林召开的中东石油及天然气会议上表示：“石油项目正在被取消，投资被调整，成本被挤压。如果我们不增加供应，将出现供应短缺，油价将再次走高。”

与会的其他高层官员表示，在一定程度上由美国页岩油供应过剩造成的油价暴跌之际，他们将维持现有回应不变，继续生产石油。页岩油是一种相对较新的产品，它是通过对地下页岩地层进行水力压裂而获得的。全球基准布伦特原油上周五报约每桶60美元，较去年7月份下跌了近一半，但科威特等地的官员称他们能够承受这样的油价水平。

科威特石油大臣Ali al-Omair称，很幸运油价没有跌至每桶20美元。

DJ OPEC Chief Says Cartel Is Hurting U.S. Shale Producers

By Benoit Faucon and Summer Said起货机

OPEC's top official said Sunday that the cartel's decision to keep pumping crude in the face of collapsing prices was hurting the U.S. shale-oil industry, potentially leading to a shortage that will push the market upward again.

"Projects are being canceled. Investments are being revised. Costs are being squeezed," said Abdalla Salem el-Badri, the secretary general of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, at the Middle East Oil and Gas conference in Bahrain. "If we don't have more supply, t阳光板here will be a shortag平板夯e and the price will rise again."

Other top official手机喇叭s at the conference said they would maintain their response of continuing to pump in the face of collapsed prices caused in part by a glut of U.S. shale oil--a relatively new product obtained through hydraulic fracturing, or fracking, of shale rock formations underground. Brent crude, the global benchmark, was trading at about $60 a barrel on Friday, an amount that is almost half its price last July but that officials in places like Kuwait say they can live with.

"We are very lucky oil prices did not drop to $20," said Kuwait Oil Minister Ali al-Omair.
