???? 据世界石油3月8日迪拜报道，在欧佩克＋延长石油供应限制后，沙特阿拉伯提高了下个月运往亚洲和美国的原油价格，这表明现货市场趋紧。

????这表明尽管周四欧佩克+决定维持原油供应基本不变，沙特认为需求仍将继续增长，使布伦特原油价格上涨。

????国有石油生产商沙特阿美将面向其最大市场亚洲地区的阿拉伯轻质原油价格上调40美分，至每桶比基准高出1.40美元。彭博社对交易商和炼油商的调查显示，在上周欧佩克+的意外宣布之前，外界曾预计沙特阿美将保持该品位原油的价格不变。

????沙特阿美上调了除重质原油以外的所有销往亚洲的原油价格。

????欧佩克及其盟国在3月4日的一次会议上决定，他们将坚持今年迄今支撑市场的减产计划。沙特承诺将至少从4月份开始的每日减产100万桶的单方面措施延长，这也推动基准油价升至近70美元/桶的近两年高点。

????沙特阿美原本打算在下个月提高石油产量，恢复其单方面削减的2月和3月每日100万桶的产量。然而与之相反的是，沙特采取了更加谨慎的做法，不愿冒着因受疫情影响的经济体放缓需求增长而侵蚀价格涨幅的风险。

????此项决议的例外俄罗斯将在下个月增加一些产量。沙特阿美下调了对欧洲的定价，欧洲原油价格在很大程度上追随了俄罗斯乌拉尔(Urals)原油的价格。俄罗斯希望增加产量，以防止美国生产商增加产量并夺取市场份额。

????Saudis raise U.S. and Asian crude prices for April delivery

????Saudi Arabia raised pricing for its crude for shipment to Asia and the U.S. next month after OPEC+ extended oil supply constraints, pointing to a tightening physical market.

????It suggests the Saudis see demand growth continuing even after Thursday’s shock OPEC+ decision to keep oil supply largely unchanged sent Brent crude higher.

????State oil producer Saudi Aramco increased pricing for Arab Light crude for Asia, its largest regional market, by 40 cents a barrel to $1.40 more than the benchmark. Ahead of last week’s OPEC+ surprise, Aramco had been expected to keep pricing for the grade unchanged, according to a Bloomberg survey of traders and refiners.

????Aramco raised all other pricing to Asia, except for its Heavy crude which remained unchanged.

????The Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies including Russia decided at a meeting March 4 that they would be sticking with the output cuts that have buoyed the market so far this year. The Saudi pledge to extend a unilateral 1 million barrel-a-day cut through at least April also helped spur the benchmark to an almost two-year high at nearly $70 a barrel.

????The world’s biggest exporter had intended to boost production next month by adding back the 1 million barrels a day of oil that it unilaterally slashed for February and March. Instead, the kingdom took the path of greater caution, not risking an erosion in price gains if pandemic-hobbled economies ease off on demand growth.

????The exception to the decision was Russia, which will be able to add some production next month. Aramco is cutting pricing to Europe, where its barrels largely track the cost of Russian Urals crude. Russia wants to add production to prevent U.S. producers from adding output and capturing market share.
