???? 據Gulf Today 2月24日報道，美國部分煉油廠受寒潮影響關閉，導致美國原油庫存意外增加，由此引發了本周三國際油價下跌。

????格林尼治時間05:06，美國西德克薩斯州中質原油期貨價格下跌56美分，收于每桶61.11美元，跌幅0.9%；布倫特原油期貨價格下跌35美分，收于每桶65.02美元，跌幅0.5%。

????“看來供應恢復速度將快于煉油廠復產速度，未來幾周供應將超過需求。這將給市場帶來負面影響，”聯邦銀行分析師VivekDhar表示。

????布倫特原油和WTI原油價格自今年年初以來上漲逾26%，創下13個月來新高，而這一次的價格回落被視為次輪增長的暫停標志。

????休斯頓航運通道的交通正在慢慢恢復，但碼頭要完全恢復仍然有諸多問題待解決。

????Oil prices fall as US crude stock builds

????Oil prices slid on Wednesday due to an unexpected build in US crude stocks last week as a deep freeze affected demand and forced refineries to shut.

????US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures were down 56 cents or 0.9% at $61.11 a barrel at 05:06 GMT while Brent crude futures fell 35 cents, or 0.5%, to $65.02 a barrel.

????"It looks like supply will recover faster than refineries, and supply is going to outpace demand in the next few weeks. That will give negative weight to the market,” said Vivek Dhar, Commonwealth Bank analyst.

????The price retreat is being seen as a pause following a rally of more than 26% to 13-month highs in both Brent and WTI since the start of the year.

????Traffic is slowly returning back to normal at the Huston shipping channel but terminals are still facing issues.
