美國原油產(chǎn)量減少，但是庫存增加

　　據(jù)道瓊斯1月5日消息，美國能源信息署（EIA）周四發(fā)布的報(bào)告讓市場可以快速地對2016年美國石油行業(yè)進(jìn)行回顧。報(bào)告顯示，美國石油產(chǎn)量已經(jīng)從2015年底時(shí)的920萬桶/天減少至2016年底時(shí)的880萬桶/天。但是石油庫存則從4.51億桶上升至4.79億桶。這看起來似乎相悖，但是2016年美國原油進(jìn)口量比2015年增加。此外，低油價(jià)刺激石油需求大幅增加的愿望也已經(jīng)落空。上周美國汽油需求為850萬桶/天，比2015年底的需求僅增加了30萬桶/天，不過比兩年前同期的需求減少了30萬桶/天。

　　US Producing Less Oil, Storing More

　　Todays EIA report allows for a quick gander at what the US oil industry did in 2016. It shows the US produced 8.8M bpd of oil at the end of 2016, down from 9.2M in the final week of 2015. But its stockpiles are actually higher, at 479M barrels vs 451M at the end of 2015. That may seem contradictory, but the US imported significantly more crude oil in 2016 than 2015. Whats more, hopes for oil demand to spike due to lower prices hasnt panned out. Gasoline demand was 8.5M bpd last week, 300k more than same week a year ago and 300k less than two years ago.
