据世界石油1月12日消息称，国际能源署表示，由于最新的冠状病毒变体对经济造成的冲击低于预期，全球石油需求已被证明强于预期。

IEA执行干事Fatih Birol周三在与记者的电话会议上表示:"需求动态强于许多市场观察人士的预期，主要是因为Omicron的预期较低。"

今年以来，原油价格一直在上涨，在伦敦市场进一步突破每桶80美元，原因是石油供应遭遇一系列挫折，而燃料使用表现出弹性。

Birol称："我们看到包括尼日利亚和厄瓜多尔在内的一些主要产油国供应严重中断。"

这家总部位于巴黎的机构在其最新月度报告中预测，由于新病毒的爆发加剧了典型的季节性需求放缓，本季度全球燃料消耗量将较前三个月下降74万桶。

IEA says oil demand more resilient than expected in the face of Omicron

Global oil demand has proven stronger than expected as the latest coronavirus variant inflicts a softer hit to the economy than anticipated, the International Energy Agency said.

“Demand dynamics are stronger than many of the market observers had thought, mainly due to the milder Omicron expectations,” IEA Executive Director Fatih Birol said on a call with reporters on Wednesday.

Crude prices have rallied this year, pushing further above $80 a barrel in London, as fuel use proves resilient while supplies suffer a range of setbacks.

“We see some of the key producers including Nigeria and also Ecuador that have serious supply disruptions,” Birol said.

In its latest monthly report, the Paris-based agency forecast that world fuel consumption would slide by 740,000 barrels a day this quarter, compared with the preceding three months, as the new virus outbreak added to the typical seasonal slowdown in demand.
