據油價網5月30日消息,六位煉油消息人士周一在一項調查中告訴路透社,亞洲煉油利潤強勁,可能會促使沙特阿拉伯提高其7月份將在亞洲主要市場銷售的所有原油等級的官方售價。
世界最大原油出口國的石油巨頭沙特阿美通常會設定其他主要中東產油國的定價趨勢,并且會在每月5日左右設定下個月原油外包服務提供商,通常是在歐佩克+每月會議之后。
根據路透社的調查,7月份,沙特預計將其旗艦阿拉伯輕質原油到亞洲的價格上調,上調幅度為每桶提高0.85美元至2.00美元,高于阿曼/迪拜基準,而中東原油在亞洲的定價低于該基準。
調查中的受訪者表示,預計7月份亞洲所有其他等級的價格也將上漲。
由于全球燃料緊縮,亞洲煉油利潤率創歷史新高,亞洲的燃料需求預計將增強,預計沙特阿拉伯的價格將上漲。
此外,盡管石油進口商呼吁增加市場供應,但人們普遍預計歐佩克+集團將在6月2日開會時保持其生產計劃不變。歐佩克+的六位消息人士上周告訴路透社,預計歐佩克+本周將在決定7月份的產量水平時,對其溫和的月度石油產量增幅進行調整。
鑒于原油期貨曲線的普遍緩和,7月份沙特售價的預期上漲將出現在6月份價格下降之后。沙特將6月份的亞洲價格從創紀錄的高溢價下調至5月份的地區基準。

Saudi Arabia Set To Raise Its Oil Prices To Asia
Strong refining margins could prompt Aramco to raise OSPs for Asia.
Saudis may consider hike of between $0.85 and $2.00 per barrel over Oman DME benchmark.
Saudi Arabia’s prices are expected to increase due to record-high refining margins in Asia.
The strong Asian refining margins could prompt Saudi Arabia to raise the official selling prices of all the crude grades it will be selling in July in its key market, Asia, six refining sources told Reuters in a survey on Monday.
Saudi Aramco, the oil giant of the world’s top crude oil exporter, generally sets the pricing trends of the other major Middle Eastern oil producers, and it usually sets the OSPs of its crude for the following month around the fifth of each month, typically after the monthly OPEC+ meeting.
For July, the Kingdom is expected to raise its OSPs for its flagship Arab Light crude grade to Asia by between $0.85 and $2.00 per barrel over the Oman/Dubai benchmark, off which Middle Eastern crude is priced in Asia, according to the Reuters survey.
All other grades are also expected to see a rise in prices for Asia in July, the respondents in the survey said.
Saudi Arabia’s prices are expected to increase due to record-high refining margins in Asia amid a global crunch in fuels, and as fuel demand is expected to strengthen in Asia.
Moreover, the OPEC+ group is widely expected to keep its production plan unchanged when it meets on June 2, despite calls from oil importers for more supply to the market. OPEC+ is expected to rubberstamp this week its moderate monthly increases in oil production when it decides output levels for July, six sources at OPEC+ told Reuters last week.
The expected rise in Saudi OSPs for July would come after prices for June were lowered, in light of a general easing of the crude oil futures curve. The Saudis cut the June prices for Asia from record high premiums to regional benchmarks in May.
