據Oil & Gas Journal網站4月15日消息 國際能源署（IEA）在其4月份的石油市場報告中表示，如果石油產量大幅下降，部分石油進入戰略儲備，需求開始復蘇，那么2020年下半年將出現供不應求的局面。

4月12日，歐佩克+集團的產油國同意從5月1日起，將最初的日產量減少970萬桶。與此同時，G20表示支持歐佩克+成員國穩定石油市場的努力，并在某些情況下討論了將立即或隨著時間推移進行的減產。

據IEA稱，歐佩克+和G20的舉措將從三個方面影響石油市場。

首先，為了達到基準，5月份歐佩克+減產將為1070萬桶/日，而不是970萬桶/日，因為4月份產量較高。這將為未來幾周的供應過剩提供一些即時緩解，從而降低庫存累積的峰值。

其次，四個國家（印度、韓國和美國等）要么向工業界提供戰略儲備能力，以暫時儲存不需要的石油，要么考慮增加戰略儲備，以利用價格下跌的優勢。這將為即將到來的股市上漲創造額外的空間，幫助市場度過低谷。

第三，據IEA估計，由于價格下降的影響，其他生產國（美國和加拿大可能是最大的貢獻國）未來幾個月的產量可能下降約350萬桶/日。這一供應的減少加上歐佩克+的減產，將使市場在2020年下半年轉虧為盈，確保庫存的積累結束，市場狀況恢復到更正常的水平。

IEA: 2020 second half could see oil demand exceed supply

If oil production falls sharply, some oil goes into strategic stocks, and demand begins to recover, the second half of 2020 will see demand exceed supply, the International Energy Agency said in its April Oil Market Report.

On Apr. 12, oil producers in the OPEC+ group agreed to cut output by an initial 9.7 million b/d versus their agreed baseline, effective May 1. Meantime, G20 countries offered their support of efforts by OPEC+ countries to stabilize the oil market and, in some cases, discussed output cuts that would take place immediately or over time.

The OPEC+ and G20 initiatives will impact the oil market in three ways, according to IEA.

First, to reach the baseline, May’s OPEC+ production cut will be 10.7 million b/d and not 9.7 million b/d, as April production was high. This will provide some immediate relief from the supply surplus in the coming weeks, lowering the peak of the build-up of stocks.

Second, four countries (India, Korea, and the US.etc) have either offered their strategic storage capacity to industry to temporarily park unwanted barrels or are considering increasing their strategic stocks to take advantage of lower prices. This will create extra headroom for the impending stock build-up, helping the market get past the hump.

Third, other producers, with the US and Canada likely to be the largest contributors, could see output fall by around 3.5 million b/d in the coming months due to the impact of lower prices, according to IEA estimates. The loss of this supply combined with the OPEC+ cuts will shift the market into a deficit in the second half of 2020, ensuring an end to the build-up of stocks and a return to more normal market conditions.
