據(jù)離岸工程網(wǎng)站5月15日消息 巴西國家石油公司高管表示，該公司認為沒有必要削減石油產(chǎn)量，因為亞洲原油市場依然強勁，而在拉美最大經(jīng)濟體的社交隔離日益松動中，國內(nèi)對燃料的需求有所回升。

在星期五與分析師的財報電話會議上，高管們相信即使在一些經(jīng)濟體封閉的情況下，巴西石油公司在近幾個月內(nèi)也能出口創(chuàng)紀錄的原油。他們補充說，事實證明，原油和汽油的儲存能力并不是一個問題。

巴西國家石油公司正式宣布，由于擔心疫情期間全球需求疲弱，將導(dǎo)致該公司沒有地方儲存原油，該公司已于4月初將石油日產(chǎn)量削減20萬桶，占其產(chǎn)量的近10%。

其他主要石油公司也大幅減產(chǎn)，包括雪佛龍公司在二疊紀盆地的減產(chǎn)。但不到一個月，巴西國家石油公司就改變了削減計劃，此舉令許多人吃驚。

Petrobras Sees No Need to Cut Oil Production

Brazil's state-run Petrobras sees no need for cuts in oil production, executives say, as the market for its crude remains robust in Asia, while domestic demand for fuel picks up amid social distancing fatigue in Latin America's largest economy.

On a Friday earnings call with analysts, executives credited it is allowing Petrobras to export a record amount of crude in recent months, even as some economies are effectively shut. Storage capacity for crude oil and gasoline is not proving to be an issue, they added.

Petroleo Brasileiro SA, as the firm is formally known, had throttled back oil production by 200,000 barrels per day in early April, or almost 10% of its output, on fears that weak global demand amid the coronavirus pandemic demand would leave the company without places to store crude.

Other major oil companies also scaled back production significantly, including Chevron Corp's cutbacks in the Permian Basin. But within a month Petrobras had reversed its cuts, surprising many.
