據(jù)能源網(wǎng)2月20日休斯敦報(bào)道，本周，原油價(jià)格飆升至2014年以來(lái)的最高水平，美國(guó)能源公司自2021年2月以來(lái)首次連續(xù)第七周增加石油和天然氣鉆機(jī)。

周五，能源服務(wù)公司貝克休斯公司在其密切關(guān)注的報(bào)告中表示，油氣鉆機(jī)數(shù)量是未來(lái)產(chǎn)量的早期指標(biāo)，在截至2月18日的一周內(nèi)增加了10臺(tái)，至645臺(tái)，這是自2020年4月以來(lái)的最高水平。貝克休斯表示，與去年同期相比，今年的鉆機(jī)總數(shù)增加了248臺(tái)，增幅62%。

本周，美國(guó)石油鉆機(jī)增加4臺(tái)，至520臺(tái)，為2020年4月以來(lái)的最高水平;天然氣鉆機(jī)增加6臺(tái)，至124臺(tái)，為2021年5月以來(lái)的最大單周漲幅,2019年12月以來(lái)的最高水平。

本周，美國(guó)原油期貨價(jià)格接近每桶96美元，為2014年9月以來(lái)的最高水平。

隨著油價(jià)在2021年飆升55%后，今年迄今為止上漲了約21%，鉆機(jī)總數(shù)量已連續(xù)18個(gè)月攀升。

然而，分析師指出，美國(guó)2021的產(chǎn)量下滑，因?yàn)樵S多能源公司更關(guān)注于向投資者返還資金，而不是提高產(chǎn)量。

美國(guó)能源情報(bào)署(EIA)周一表示，美國(guó)最大的頁(yè)巖油盆地得克薩斯州和新墨西哥州的二疊紀(jì)盆地3月石油產(chǎn)量將升至創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的520.5萬(wàn)桶/日。

該公司預(yù)計(jì)，3月份主要頁(yè)巖盆地的天然氣產(chǎn)量將增至創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的917億立方英尺/天。

但是，自從2020年12月二疊紀(jì)每臺(tái)鉆機(jī)新油井產(chǎn)量達(dá)到創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的1546桶/天，以及自2021年3月阿巴拉契亞的每臺(tái)鉆機(jī)新氣井產(chǎn)量達(dá)到創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的3330萬(wàn)立方英尺/天以來(lái)，最大的油氣盆地的生產(chǎn)力一直在下降。

越來(lái)越多的能源公司表示，在2019年和2020年削減鉆井和完井支出后，他們計(jì)劃在2022年連續(xù)第二年增加支出。

美國(guó)金融服務(wù)公司Cowen & Co表示，其追蹤的獨(dú)立勘探和生產(chǎn) (E&P) 公司計(jì)劃在2021年與2020年相比增加約4%的支出后，2022年的支出將比2021年增加約23%。

此前，資本支出在2020年和2019年分別下降了約48%和12%。

U.S. drillers add oil and gas rigs for seventh week -Baker Hughes

U.S. energy firms this week added oil and natural gas rigs for a seventh week in a row for the first time since February 2021 after crude prices this week soared to their highest since 2014.

The oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, rose 10 to 645 in the week to Feb. 18, its highest since April 2020, energy services firm Baker Hughes Co said in its closely followed report on Friday.Baker Hughes said that puts the total rig count up 248 rigs, or 62%, over this time last year.

U.S. oil rigs rose by four to 520 this week, their highest since April 2020, while gas rigs rose six, their biggest weekly gain since May 2021, to 124, their highest since December 2019.

U.S. crude futures rose close to $96 per barrel this week, their highest since September 2014.

The combined rig count has climbed for a record 18 months in a row as oil prices gained about 21% so far this year after soaring 55% in 2021.

However, analysts noted U.S. production in 2021 slipped as many energy firms focused more on returning money to investors rather than boosting output.

Oil output in the Permian in Texas and New Mexico, the biggest U.S. shale oil basin, will rise to a record 5.205 million barrels per day (bpd) in March, the Energy Information Administration said on Monday.

Gas output in the major shale basins will increase to a record 91.7 billion cubic feet per day (bcfd) bcfd in March, it projected.

But productivity in the biggest oil and gas basins has declined since hitting records of new oil well production per rig of 1,546 bpd in December 2020 in the Permian and new gas well production per rig of 33.3 million cubic feet per day (mmcfd) in March 2021 in Appalachia, it said.

A growing number of energy firms said they plan to boost spending for a second year in a row in 2022 after cutting drilling and completion expenditures in 2019 and 2020.

U.S. financial services firm Cowen & Co said the independent exploration and production (E&P) companies it tracks plan to boost spending by about 23% in 2022 versus 2021 after increasing spending about 4% in 2021 versus 2020.

That follows a drop in capital expenditures of roughly 48% in 2020 and 12% in 2019.
