随着利比亚产量恢复，欧佩克石油产量跃升 47 万桶/日

10月份，受利比亚产量激增的推动，欧佩克石油产量增加46.6万桶/日，达到2653万桶/日。在政治争端得到解决后，利比亚的产量跃升了 556,000 桶/日，该争端导致其一半业务停止。然而，出于安全考虑，伊朗产量下降了 68,000 桶/日。沙特阿拉伯的产量维持在 900 万桶/日左右。尽管有所增加，欧佩克的产量仍低于大流行前的水平。该卡特尔计划于 2025 年 1 月根据市场情况逐步扭转为应对 COVID-19 大流行而实施的部分减产措施。

In October, OPEC's oil production increased by 466,000 barrels per day (bpd) to 26.53 million bpd, driven by a surge in Libyan output. Libya's production jumped by 556,000 bpd after resolving a political dispute that had halted half of its operations. Iran's production, however, declined by 68,000 bpd due to security concerns. Saudi Arabia maintained its output near 9 million bpd. Despite the increase, OPEC's output remains below its pre-pandemic levels. In January 2025, the cartel plans to gradually reverse part of the production cuts implemented in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, depending on market conditions.

OPEC Oil Production Jumps By 470,000 Bpd As Libyan Output Returns

The return of Libya’s oil production to full capacity raised the total OPEC output by 466,000 barrels per day (bpd) in October from September, the cartel’s monthly report showed on Tuesday, less than two months ahead of a planned reversal of part of the cuts.

Total crude oil production in all 12 OPEC members averaged 26.53 million bpd in October 2024, up by 466,000 bpd compared to September, according to secondary sources in OPEC’s Monthly Oil Market Report published today.

Crude oil output increased mainly in Libya, Nigeria and Congo, while production in Iran, Iraq, and Kuwait decreased, OPEC said.

Libya saw a jump of 556,000 bpd in its production last month after the political impasse that had halted more than half of its output was resolved.

Libya had most of its output halted for the whole month of September, and its oil production was decimated after the country’s two rival administrations locked horns over the appointment of a new central bank governor.

Following the resolution of this latest crisis, Libyan oil production resumed in early October and is now estimated to have exceeded pre-crisis levels and hit 1.3 million bpd.

Iran’s oil production, on the other hand, dropped by 68,000 bpd in October, per OPEC’s secondary sources.

Awaiting a retaliatory strike from Israel, the Islamic Republic reduced output and also exports last month.

Early last month, Iranian oil tankers were spotted moving away from Kharg Island, Iran’s biggest oil export terminal, amid fears of an imminent Israeli attack on the most important crude export infrastructure in Iran. Israel opted for a limited strike on Iran, which has somewhat defused tensions in the region, for now.

Elsewhere among OPEC’s producers, Saudi Arabia, the top producer in the cartel, saw its output stable at just below 9 million bpd—as the Kingdom pledged more than a year ago.

OPEC is set to begin reversing the production cuts in January 2025, market conditions permitting.
