5月全球石油日产量下降至8989万桶

据6月20日The National报道，根据欧佩克数据显示，2020年5月，全球石油总产量为8989万桶/天，与2020年4月相比每天减少了1004万桶。

全球石油产量下降的原因是欧佩克和其他产油国签署了减产协议，以维持供需平衡，保护产油国和消费国的利益。

2020年5月，石油价格在第一季度下跌至2003年以来的最低水平后飙升，这鼓励了欧佩克+进一步削减产量，特别是在主要消费国石油需求下降的情况下。

根据欧佩克石油市场活动的月度报告，五月份欧佩克成员国的石油日产量下降了630万桶，同时俄罗斯、美国、哈萨克斯坦、阿曼、加拿大、阿塞拜疆、挪威和墨西哥也进行了减产。

欧佩克预计，2020年全球石油日产量将减少910万桶，初步数据显示，今年全球石油平均产量将达到9060万桶/天。

Global oil production declines to 89.89 million barrels per day in May

In May 2020, the total global oil production amounted to 89.89 million barrels per day, marking a daily decrease of 10.04 million barrels compared to April 2020, according to figures from the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).

The global decline in oil production was the result of an agreement signed between OPEC and other producers to cut production, to maintain a balance between supply and demand and protect the interests of both producers and consumers.

In May 2020, oil prices surged after dropping in the first quarter to its lowest levels since 2003, which encouraged the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries Plus, OPEC+, to cut production further, especially with the decline of oil demand by major consumer countries.

The production of OPEC members declined by 6.3 million barrels per day in May while other cuts were made by Russia, the US, Kazakhstan, Oman, Canada, Azerbaijan, Norway and Mexico, as per OPEC’s monthly report on oil market activity.

OPEC estimates a decline in global oil production by 9.1 million barrels per day in 2020, noting that average global oil production this year will reach 90.6 million barrels per day, according to preliminary figures.
