據今日油價網9月5日報道，在周一早間，原油價格上漲了3%。與此同時，OPEC+石油生產國組織的聯合部長級監督委員會（JMMC）開始了其每月例行會議，該會議將在歐佩克+部長級會議之前審查市場狀況，并決定10月份的原油產量配額。

截至美國東部時間周一上午7點35分，美國基準WTI原油期貨收于每桶90美元，交易價格上漲3.11%，至89.59美元。國際基準布倫特原油當天上漲3.39%，至96.20美元。

JMMC會議通常會就行動方針向歐佩克+全體部長級會議提出建議。在今天的會議上，OPEC+預計將保持10月的產量配額與9月持平，盡管最近幾天有關該聯盟可能采取減產措施的猜測在周五和周一早間支撐了油價。

從理論上講，該集團在8月底之前收回了2020年5月以來的所有大規模減產，但估計比集體目標低290萬桶/天。

“我們相信OPEC+將在下個月保持產量目標不變。當市場交易價格接近100美元/桶時，削減產量是不合理的。”荷蘭國際集團（ING）大宗商品策略主管沃倫?帕特森（Warren Patterson）在周一會議前表示。

盛寶銀行今天表示：“歐洲能源危機進一步支持了天然氣轉燃料的活動。”

Oil Rises 3% Ahead Of OPEC+ Meeting

Crude oil prices jumped by 3% early on Monday, just as the Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC) of the OPEC+ oil producer group began its regular monthly meeting that precedes the OPEC+ ministerial gathering set to review market conditions and decide on crude output quotas for October. 

As of 7:35 a.m. ET on Monday, the U.S. benchmark, WTI Crude, was closing in at $90 a barrel and traded up 3.11% at $89.59. The international benchmark, Brent Crude, was up by 3.39% on the day at $96.20. 

The JMMC meeting typically gives recommendations to the full ministerial OPEC+ meeting on a course of action. At today’s meeting, OPEC+ is largely expected to keep production quotas for October unchanged from September levels, although speculation in recent days that the alliance could resort to cuts supported oil prices on Friday and early on Monday. 

The group, in theory, rolled back by the end of August all the massive cuts from May 2020, but it’s estimated to be 2.9 million barrels per day (bpd) below the collective target.

“We believe that OPEC+ will leave output targets unchanged for next month. It is difficult to justify cutting output when the market is trading near US$100/bbl,” Warren Patterson, Head of Commodities Strategy at ING, said ahead of the meeting on Monday.

 Furthermore, it would make more sense for OPEC+ to wait for further clarity on Iranian nuclear talks before taking any action,” ING says. 

“The European energy crisis adds further support to gas-to-fuel switching activity,” Saxo Bank said today.
