据油价网5月30日消息,六位炼油消息人士周一在一项调查中告诉路透社,亚洲炼油利润强劲,可能会促使沙特阿拉伯提高其7月份将在亚洲主要市场销售的所有原油等级的官方售价。
世界最大原油出口国的石油巨头沙特阿美通常会设定其他主要中东产油国的定价趋势,并且会在每月5日左右设定下个月原油外包服务提供商,通常是在欧佩克+每月会议之后。
根据路透社的调查,7月份,沙特预计将其旗舰阿拉伯轻质原油到亚洲的价格上调,上调幅度为每桶提高0.85美元至2.00美元,高于阿曼/迪拜基准,而中东原油在亚洲的定价低于该基准。
调查中的受访者表示,预计7月份亚洲所有其他等级的价格也将上涨。
由于全球燃料紧缩,亚洲炼油利润率创历史新高,亚洲的燃料需求预计将增强,预计沙特阿拉伯的价格将上涨。
此外,尽管石油进口商呼吁增加市场供应,但人们普遍预计欧佩克+集团将在6月2日开会时保持其生产计划不变。欧佩克+的六位消息人士上周告诉路透社,预计欧佩克+本周将在决定7月份的产量水平时,对其温和的月度石油产量增幅进行调整。
鉴于原油期货曲线的普遍缓和,7月份沙特售价的预期上涨将出现在6月份价格下降之后。沙特将6月份的亚洲价格从创纪录的高溢价下调至5月份的地区基准。

Saudi Arabia Set To Raise Its Oil Prices To Asia
Strong refining margins could prompt Aramco to raise OSPs for Asia.
Saudis may consider hike of between $0.85 and $2.00 per barrel over Oman DME benchmark.
Saudi Arabia’s prices are expected to increase due to record-high refining margins in Asia.
The strong Asian refining margins could prompt Saudi Arabia to raise the official selling prices of all the crude grades it will be selling in July in its key market, Asia, six refining sources told Reuters in a survey on Monday.
Saudi Aramco, the oil giant of the world’s top crude oil exporter, generally sets the pricing trends of the other major Middle Eastern oil producers, and it usually sets the OSPs of its crude for the following month around the fifth of each month, typically after the monthly OPEC+ meeting.
For July, the Kingdom is expected to raise its OSPs for its flagship Arab Light crude grade to Asia by between $0.85 and $2.00 per barrel over the Oman/Dubai benchmark, off which Middle Eastern crude is priced in Asia, according to the Reuters survey.
All other grades are also expected to see a rise in prices for Asia in July, the respondents in the survey said.
Saudi Arabia’s prices are expected to increase due to record-high refining margins in Asia amid a global crunch in fuels, and as fuel demand is expected to strengthen in Asia.
Moreover, the OPEC+ group is widely expected to keep its production plan unchanged when it meets on June 2, despite calls from oil importers for more supply to the market. OPEC+ is expected to rubberstamp this week its moderate monthly increases in oil production when it decides output levels for July, six sources at OPEC+ told Reuters last week.
The expected rise in Saudi OSPs for July would come after prices for June were lowered, in light of a general easing of the crude oil futures curve. The Saudis cut the June prices for Asia from record high premiums to regional benchmarks in May.
