金融英语阅读:欧佩克油价跌至近三个月最低点
英文: OPEC oil prices drop to new low in three months The oil prices of The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries dropped to a new low in nearly three months .Have lost more than nine dollars from the record high of 61.37 dollars per barrel on Sept. 1. Analysts said the warm weather in the United States and Europe has reduced the market demand for heating oil, resulting in a continued decrease of oil prices in the world market. The oil production and refinery facilities in the Gulf region are expected to return to normal by January 2006. Meanwhile, a report by US energy information provider Platts showed that the daily crude output of 11 OPEC members dropped to 30.07 million barrels in October, about 240,000 barrels lower than the previous month. 中文:欧佩克油价跌至近三个月最低点 欧佩克单日油价已从9月1日每桶61.37美元的历史高位回落了9美元多,跌至近3个多月以来的最低点 。 市场人士说,美国和欧洲地区天气偏暖缓解了取暖油供求紧张状况,促使国际市场油价持续回落。 此外,受飓风“卡特里娜”和“丽塔”影响的美国墨西哥湾石油生产和炼油设施正在恢复,减轻了国际市场原油价格的继续走低。 美国墨西哥湾石油生产和炼油设施有望在2006年1月全部恢复。 据国际石油咨询机构普拉茨能源信息公司公布的调查报告,欧佩克11个成员国10月份的原油日产量为3007万桶,比前一个月下降了约24万桶。 |
