美國油價最新消息:美伊談判前景不明朗,霍爾木茲海峽封鎖引發燃料供應擔憂,原油價格上漲

-- 在週四盤後交易中,原油期貨價格上漲,因為圍繞美伊第二輪和平談判的不確定性以及霍爾木茲海峽航運持續中斷加劇了對全球供應的擔憂。 近月西德州中質原油期貨上漲2.08%,至每桶93.19美元;布蘭特原油期貨上漲3.57%,至每桶98.32美元。 週四,美國總統川普對美伊簽署永久停火協議的前景表示樂觀。雙方正在討論在下週停火協議到期前延長停火期限。 川普在沒有提供證據的情況下表示,德黑蘭已同意放棄濃縮鈾。 「我們與伊朗達成協議的前景看起來非常好,而且這將是一項不錯的協議,」川普週四在白宮對記者說。 然而,據報道,伊朗官員對美國致力於公平談判的承諾持懷疑態度,儘管有報道稱雙方可能在本週末舉行會晤,但新一輪談判的前景仍不明朗。 根據伊朗半官方的塔斯尼姆通訊社報道,德黑蘭方面認為,由於華盛頓涉嫌違反和平談判之初的承諾,且其至今的行為依然如此,因此下一輪談判不太可能取得成果。 據報道,雙方正在考慮最早於本週末返回巴基斯坦進行進一步會談。 SEB Research的大宗商品分析師奧勒·R·赫瓦爾比表示,局勢瞬息萬變,但他仍維持SEB的基本預測,即2026年布蘭特原油均價將達到每桶95美元,2027年和2028年分別為每桶85美元和80美元。 同時,中東衝突導致全球能源市場遭受前所未有的衝擊,霍爾木茲海峽遭到雙重封鎖,這條戰略水道通常承載著全球約20%的石油和液化天然氣運輸量。 荷蘭國際集團(ING)分析師表示,隨著買家轉向美國原油,只要中東地區的衝突持續,美國國內市場供應就會趨緊,這可能會促使美國生產商增加供應。 然而,分析師指出,自衝突爆發以來,當地的鑽探活動幾乎沒有變化,而衝突已導致每日約1,300萬桶原油的供應中斷。 美國中央司令部實施了封鎖,切斷了伊朗的航運,而德黑蘭方面則對大多數其他船隻關閉了這條戰略水道。 Kpler策略家表示,霍爾木茲海峽的船舶通行量已從上個月的異常低迷水準有所回升,過境船隻數量增加,船舶類型和貨物種類也更加多樣化。

Paladin Energy Upgrades Namibia Mine Production Guidance, Shares Hit Nearly Two-Year High

Paladin Energy (ASX:PDN) said it now expects fiscal year 2026 triuranium octoxide production of between 4.5 million pounds and 4.8 million pounds, up from previous guidance of 4 million pounds to 4.4 million pounds, from the Langer Heinrich Mine in Namibia, according to a Friday Australian bourse filing.The mine, in which the company holds 75% interest, now has a capital and exploration expenditure guidance of between $15 million and $17 million, down from $26 million to $32 million, due to reprioritization and deferral of capital and exploration expenditure.The company said that the cost of production is expected to materially align with previous guidance of $44 million per pound to $48 million per pound, pending the duration of the current conflict in the Middle East and any further associated impacts on forecast cost.The mine recorded 1.03 million pounds in sales in the fiscal third quarter with 1.29 million pounds of production. Its full-year sales guidance remains unchanged at between 3.8 million pounds and 4.2 million pounds.Paladin said it continues to expect LHM to transition to full mining and processing plant operations by the end of fiscal 2026.The company's shares rose 3% in recent trade and earlier reached their highest price since June 2024.
