據(jù)美國油價網(wǎng)2021年12月29日利雅得報(bào)道，沙特阿拉伯可能在2022年2月份下調(diào)面向亞洲買家的原油官方售價（OSP），此前沙特阿拉伯在12月份曾大幅上調(diào)出口亞洲原油的OSP。  

路透社援引業(yè)內(nèi)人士和調(diào)查數(shù)據(jù)報(bào)道稱，沙特阿拉伯可能會將2月份所有出口原油等級的OSP每桶下調(diào)1美元或更多，這將使這些產(chǎn)品的OSP在3到4個月內(nèi)跌至最低水平。  

12月早些時候，沙特阿拉伯將其對出口亞洲原油的OSP每桶上調(diào)了0.6美元，使其比阿曼/迪拜基準(zhǔn)原油價格每桶高出了3.30美元。 

油價上漲表明市場預(yù)期需求強(qiáng)勁，這也意味著沙特阿拉伯對奧密克戎毒株的影響并不十分擔(dān)心。2021年11月底，奧密克戎毒株曾導(dǎo)致油價每桶暴跌逾10美元，布倫特原油價格曾一度跌破每桶70美元。

路透社在報(bào)道中指出，12月全球油價反彈，但中東和俄羅斯的現(xiàn)貨市場溢價自12月初以來已下降逾50%。歐佩克+聯(lián)盟12月的原油產(chǎn)量增加是油價下跌的原因。 

路透社指出，2022年2月份的OSP下調(diào)在一定程度上是由于預(yù)計(jì)亞洲買家的需求將會下降，因?yàn)閬喼薜臒捰蛷S將在2022年第二季度為維修季節(jié)做準(zhǔn)備。

沙特阿拉伯將在1月4日舉行的歐佩克+會議后宣布其出口原油的OSP。 亞洲占沙特阿拉伯原油出口量的一半以上。  

12月早些時候，沙特阿拉伯報(bào)告稱，10月份對亞洲的原油出口量占其總出口量的77.6%，高于一年前的66.1%。 由于原油價格大幅上漲，沙特阿拉伯原油出口收入比一年前猛增了123%。

Saudi Arabia May Cut Oil Prices For Asia

Saudi Arabia could cut the official selling price for oil to Asian buyers in February after raising them substantially this month.

According to a Reuters report citing industry insiders and poll data, the Kingdom could slash the prices for all its export grades by as much as $1 per barrel and more, which would push these prices to their lowest in three to four months.

Earlier this month, Saudi Arabia raised its official selling prices for oil to Asia by $0.60 per barrel, which brought them $3.30 per barrel above the Oman/Dubai benchmark.

The price hike suggested expectations of strong demand, which in turn implied that Saudi Arabia is not all that worried about the Omicron variant that caused a more than $10 plunge in oil prices in late November, with Brent at one point dipping below $70 per barrel. 

This month, however, prices have rebounded globally, but the spot market premium for Middles Eastern and Russian grades has fallen by more than 50 percent since the start of the month, Reuters noted in its report. The drop was a result of higher OPEC+ production this month.

The price cut for February is in part a move in anticipation of lower demand from Asian buyers as refineries on the continent prepare for maintenance season in the second quarter of the year, Reuters noted.

Saudi Arabia will announce its official selling prices for oil after the January OPEC+ meeting, to take place on the 4th of the month. Asia accounts for more than half of Saudi oil exports.

Earlier this month, the Kingdom reported crude oil exports accounted for 77.6 percent of total exports in October, up from 66.1 percent a year earlier. The value of oil exports was 123 percent higher than a year ago, thanks to substantially higher crude oil prices.
