來自JODI匯編的統(tǒng)計數據顯示，8月份全球石油需求出現(xiàn)反彈，總需求幾乎恢復到疫情前的水平  

8月份全球石油需求日增200萬桶，而此前一個月每天罕見地減少110萬桶

全球經濟放緩的風險和歐佩克+最近的減產決定可能會減緩未來全球石油需求增長  

據油價網10月17日報道，周一，來自總部設在利雅得的聯(lián)合石油數據庫(JODI)匯編的統(tǒng)計數據顯示，在經歷了7月份的反季節(jié)性下降后，全球石油需求在8月份平均每天反彈200萬桶，達到疫情暴發(fā)前99%的水平。  

總部位于利雅得的國際能源論壇(IEF)援引最新JODI數據說，8月份全球石油需求增長是受美國、日本、沙特阿拉伯和印度尼西亞消費增加的推動。

值得注意的是，8月份全球原油日產量也增加了50萬桶，其中沙特阿拉伯原油日產量超過1100萬桶——這是沙特阿拉伯王國第三次報告原油日產量超過1100萬桶。

數據顯示，美國8月份原油日產量增加29萬桶，比去年同期增加81.3萬桶。8月份美國原油日需求增加146萬桶，美國原油收市庫存減少2270萬桶，至JODI開始記錄以來的第二低水平。  

在8月份全球石油需求反彈之前，7月份全球的石油日需求量估計下降了110萬桶，這種情況在每年的這個時候是不尋常的。 

8月份的需求可能已經反彈，但石油市場和石油分析師表示，持續(xù)的經濟放緩和即將到來的經濟衰退可能會在短期內限制需求增長。

在歐佩克+聯(lián)盟10月初宣布自2020年以來最大的減產目標水平后，供應也將比之前預期的更受限制。盡管歐佩克+總體上每天削減200萬桶，但目前歐佩克+原油日產量的實際削減量只有這個數字的一半，約為100萬桶—110萬桶。這是因為許多成員國幾個月來都沒能按配額生產原油。  

國際能源署(IEA)上周警告稱，歐佩克+從11月份起削減原油供應的決定增加了全球能源安全風險，并可能導致油價上漲，這可能成為全球經濟衰退的引爆點。IEA為此下調了對今明兩年全球石油需求增長預期，并表示：“仍然相對強勁的總體數據掩蓋了正在發(fā)生的急劇放緩，目前預計今年第四季度全球石油日需求將同比減少34萬桶?！?/p>

Global Oil Demand Rebounded By 2 Million Bpd In August

·     Data from JODI shows that global oil demand rebounded in August, with total demand nearly back at pre-Covid levels.

·     The 2 million August increase in global oil demand followed an unusual 1.1 million bpd drop the month before.

·     The risk of a global economic slowdown and the recent decision by OPEC+ to cut production may slow demand growth going forward.

After a counter-seasonal drop in July, global oil demand rebounded in August by 2 million barrels per day (bpd) to reach 99 percent of pre-Covid levels, data from the Joint Organizations Data Initiative (JODI) showed on Monday.

Oil demand growth in August was driven by higher consumption in the United States, Japan, Saudi Arabia, and Indonesia, the Riyadh-based International Energy Forum (IEF) said, citing the latest JODI data.

Of note in August was also a 500,000 bpd increase in global crude oil output, with Saudi Arabia’s production rising above 11 million bpd - only the third time the Kingdom has reported output of over 11 million bpd, according to the JODI database which compiles self-reported figures from countries.

In the United States, crude oil production rose by 290,000 bpd in August and is up by 813,000 bpd from year-ago levels, the data showed. Product demand rose by 1.46 million bpd in August, and U.S. crude oil closing stocks dropped by 22.7 million barrels to their second-lowest level recorded in JODI.

The August rebound in global demand follows an estimated 1.1 million bpd drop in July, which was an unusual slump for this time of the year.

Demand for August may have rebounded, but the oil market and oil analysts say that the ongoing economic slowdown and looming recessions could limit demand growth in the near term.

Supply will also be constrained more than previously expected after the OPEC+ group announced early this month the biggest cut to its target production level since 2020. Despite the headline cut of 2 million bpd, the actual reduction from current OPEC+ oil production would be half that figure, at around 1 million bpd-1.1 million bpd. That’s because many producers haven’t been able to produce to their quotas for months.

The alliance’s decision to cut oil supply as of November increases energy security risks worldwide and could lead to higher oil prices that could be the tipping point for a global recession, the International Energy Agency (IEA) warned last week. The agency cut its demand growth estimates for this year and next and said that “The still relatively robust headline figure masks a sharp slowdown underway, with demand now forecast to contract by 340 kb/d y-o-y in 4Q22, despite increased gas-to-oil switching in power generation and industry.”
