? 本周初，布倫特原油價格突破每桶113美元。

? 原油價格已經恢復到3月31日宣布釋放戰略石油儲備之前的水平。  

? 周一早些時候，歐佩克某成員國停止原油供應使市場情緒略微看漲。

據美國油價網4月18日報道，受到歐佩克某成員國停止原油供應的影響，以及對一些生產大國供應損失的擔憂，油價在一個長周末以后的周一（4月18日）早些時候出現上漲，從而恢復到上次在3月底看到的水平。美國在3月底前宣布其有史以來最大釋放戰略石油儲備來抑制不斷上漲的原油和汽油價格。 

美國東部時間4月18日上午9點45分，WTI原油期貨價格上漲0.92%，報收于每桶107.86美元，布倫特原油期貨價格上漲0.98%，報收于每桶112.75美元。

白宮當時表示：“在與盟友和合作伙伴協商以后，美國將宣布美國歷史上最大的戰略石油儲備釋放，在未來6個月里，平均每天向市場釋放100萬桶原油?！?/p>

大規模釋放戰略石油儲備的消息使得油價在4月初下跌了好幾天。 然而，分析師們表示，在新生產方面的投資多年處于低位之后，緊急釋放戰略石油儲備無助于填補石油市場的結構性缺口。  

最近有報道稱，歐盟正在討論生產大國的石油禁運和本周末的歐佩克某成員國石油供應中斷，這些報道推高了石油價格，超過了戰略石油儲備的釋放，以及對需求大國需求放緩的擔憂，因為作為“零COVID”政策的一部分，該國恢復了部分地區的封鎖模式。

盡管本月稍早市場對全球最大原油進口國經濟放緩的擔憂主導了市場情緒，但歐佩克某成員國石油供應中斷令市場情緒在周一稍顯樂觀。該國國家石油公司(NOC)表示，在向石油工人施壓后，該國最大的油田沙拉拉大油田已關閉生產，并宣布油田出現不可抗力。在此之前，費爾油田在4月16日被迫關閉，迫使NOC宣布祖埃提納石油港口發生不可抗力。NOC還警告稱，“在石油和天然氣價格飆升之際，該國將開始一波痛苦的關閉油氣生產浪潮”。

Oil Prices Rally Back To Pre-Strategic Petroleum Release Levels

? Brent crude tops $113 per barrel at the start of the week.

? Crude prices have recovered to levels before the March 31st SPR release announcement.

? Libyan outages tipped the mood to slightly bullish early on Monday.

Supported by outages in one certain member of OPEC and concerns about the loss of some supply of the big produce country, oil rose early on Monday after a long weekend, returning to the levels last seen at the end of March, just before the United States announced its largest-ever release of strategic crude stocks to curb rising crude and gasoline prices.

As of 9:45 a.m. ET on Monday, WTI Crude was up by 0.92% at $107.86, and Brent Crude had risen by 0.98% at $112.75.

“After consultation with allies and partners, the President will announce the largest release of oil reserves in history, putting one million additional barrels on the market per day on average – every day – for the next six months,” the White House said at the time.

The news of the massive SPR release sent oil prices lower for several days in early April. However, analysts say that the emergency stocks release would do nothing to fill the structural deficit in the oil market after years of low investments in new production.

Recent reports of the EU discussing oil embargo of the big produce country and this weekend’s outages in the certain member of OPEC pushed oil higher, trumping the SPR release and concerns about a slowdown in demand in the biggest demand country as it is back in lockdown mode for millions of residents as part of its “zero COVID” policy.

While fears of a slowdown in the world’s top crude oil importer dominated market sentiment earlier this month, the certain member of OPEC outages tipped the mood to slightly bullish early on Monday.its largest oilfield, Sharara, has shut down production after a group of individuals pressured oil workers, the National Oil Corporation (NOC) said, declaring force majeure on the oilfield. This followed the forced closure of the Al-Feel field on Saturday, which forced NOC to declare force majeure on the oil port of Zueitina. NOC also “warns of the start of a painful wave of closures at the time of the oil and gas price boom.”
