據(jù)油價網(wǎng)5月11日消息，美國每加侖汽油的平均價格因科洛尼爾管道運輸公司(Colonial Pipeline)遭勒索軟件攻擊和隨后的中斷而上漲。美國汽車協(xié)會的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，汽油零售的整體均價目前為每加侖2.985美元，而一年前的均價僅為每加侖1.847美元。

　　這是自2018年以來最高的汽油價格。根據(jù)GasBuddy的數(shù)據(jù)，美國汽油價格再上漲2美分，將達到7年高點。

　　這是colonial管道輸送中斷的第五日。

　　Panic Buying Sends U.S. Gasoline Prices To Near 7-Year High

　　The average price of a gallon of gasoline in the United States has jumped on the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack and subsequent outage. The overall average price of retail gasoline is now at $2.985 per gallon, according to AAA. This compares to a year-ago average of just $1.847 per gallon.

　　This is the highest gasoline price since 2018. Another two-cent rise for U.S. gasoline prices and it would be at a 7-year high, according to GasBuddy data.

　　It is the Colonial Pipeline’s fifth outage day.

　　U.S. Gulf Coast refiners curbed their fuel production on Monday, as it became more and more difficult to find takeaway capacity to move their products. One such refiner—Motiva in Port Arthur, the largest one in the United States—slashed its production by 45% on Monday.

　　The service disruption is affecting the entire East Coast region.

　　It has also run dry gas stations in the southeast United States, as gas stations report they have sold out of gasoline as supplies run tight and drivers scramble to top off for fear that they won’t be able to fill up when they truly need it. The panic buying has exacerbated the outage.

　　Colonial Pipeline has said it will not be able to restore the pipeline to full service until sometime this weekend. Under normal operations, the Colonial pipeline system ships 2.5 million barrels per day.

　　Citigroup has stated that the East Coast is at risk of a “temporary, but major shortage” of fuels due to the closure, according to Bloomberg.

　　Colonial Pipeline issued a statement on Twitter on Tuesday that said it was “experiencing a temporary service disruption to our corporate website” that was unrelated to the ransomware attack.
