???? 據今日油價網站2月18日消息 美國能源信息署（EIA）公布稱，截至2月12日的一周內，美國原油庫存減少730萬桶，原油價格大幅上漲。
????而EIA估計，前一周的庫存下降550萬桶。
????美國石油協會（API）前一天公布稱，截至2月12日的一周原油庫存下降580萬桶。
????分析師此前預計，報告期內庫存將減少217.5萬桶。
????EIA還報告稱，上周汽油庫存增加70萬桶，前一周增加430萬桶。平均產量為900萬桶/日，而一周前為870萬桶/日。
????本周和下周，由于德克薩斯州的凍結導致煉油廠停產，汽油庫存可能會進一步大幅減少。據業內人士估計，由于停電和冰凍，有300多萬桶/日的煉油產能處于停產狀態。
????中間餾分油方面，EIA報告上周庫存減少340萬桶，而前一周的庫存減少170萬桶。
????上周餾分油平均產量為460萬桶/日，低于一周前的470萬桶/日。
????和汽油一樣，蒸餾油也可能在本周和下周出現重大消耗，因為一旦德克薩斯州電力供應恢復，煉油廠需要時間才能恢復正常運營。
????據彭博社本周早些時候援引的交易員和業內人士估計，布倫特原油交易價格為每桶64.06美元，西德克薩斯中質原油交易價格為每桶60.85美元，這兩種價格均因德克薩斯州凍結令美國石油總產量大幅削減40%而走高。
????價格可能會進一步上漲，因為即使在德州寒流結束，本季氣溫恢復正常后，恢復正常生產率仍需要一段時間。

????Oil Prices Jump Above $61 On Major Crude Draw
????Crude oil prices jumped higher after the Energy Information Administration reported crude oil inventories in the U.S. had shed 7.3 million barrels in the week to February 12.
????This compared with an inventory draw of 5.5 million barrels for the previous week, as estimated by the EIA.
????The American Petroleum Institute had a day earlier seen crude oil inventories down 5.8 million barrels for the week to February 12.
????Analysts had expected an inventory draw of 2.175 million barrels for the reporting period.
????The EIA also reported a build in gasoline stocks for last week, at 700,000 barrels. This compared with a build of 4.3 million barrels for the previous week. Production averaged 9 million bpd, compared with 8.7 million bpd a week earlier.
????This week and next will likely see further hefty gasoline inventory draws due to the refinery outages caused by the Texas freeze. According to industry estimates, more than 3 million bpd in refining capacity is off because of power outages and freezing.
????In middle distillates, the EIA reported an inventory decline of 3.4 million barrels for last week, which compared with a draw of 1.7 million barrels for the previous week.
????Distillate production averaged 4.6 million bpd last week, down from 4.7 million bpd a week earlier.
????Like gasoline, distillates are also likely to see major draws this week and next as refineries take time to return to normal operation once power supply recovers in Texas.
????Brent crude was trading at $64.06 a barrel at the time of writing, and Wet Texas Intermediate was changing hands at $60.85 a barrel, both pushed higher by the Texas freeze that slashed total U.S. oil production by as much as 40 percent, according to trader and industry estimated cited by Bloomberg earlier this week.
????Prices may go further still as the resumption of normal production rates will take a while even after the cold spell in Texas ends and temperatures return to normal for this season.
