据今日油价网站2月1日消息 伊拉克石油部周一公布的数据显示，与2020年12月相比，2021年1月伊拉克石油出口略有增长，这表明伊拉克再次在冒着破坏其欧佩克+合规性的风险寻求石油收入最大化。
路透社援引伊拉克石油部的数据称，作为欧佩克第二大产油国、在遵守欧佩克+集团减产计划方面最大的落后国家，伊拉克1月份原油出口量从2020年12月的284.6万桶/日增加到286.8万桶/日。
伊拉克上个月从巴士拉南部出口码头的出口量平均为277万桶/日，略高于去年12月从南部出口的275万桶/日。石油部的数据显示，2021年1月，基尔库克通过杰伊汉管道的出口量平均为9.8万桶/日，也比上月略有上升。
由于油价上涨，伊拉克的石油收入在2021年的第一个月也有所增长。伊拉克1月份石油收入为47.4亿美元，平均油价为53.294美元/桶。路透社援引的数据显示，油价较去年12月伊拉克石油销售均价47.765美元/桶高出逾5美元/桶。
上月底，巴格达石油销售公司SOMO的副总裁阿里 尼扎尔表示，伊拉克将在1月和2月减少石油产量，以弥补去年的过剩产量。
阿里·尼扎尔在接受彭博社采访时表示，伊拉克计划1月和2月的日均产量为360万桶。相比之下，12月份的日产量为385万桶。
尼扎尔表示，只要库尔德地区政府同意削减石油产量，出口量也将从12月份的330万桶/日下降到300万桶/日左右。

Iraq Raises Crude Oil Exports In January
Iraq’s oil exports increased slightly in January 2021 compared to December 2020, data from the country’s oil ministry showed on Monday, suggesting that Iraq is again looking to maximize oil revenues at the risk of busting its OPEC+ compliance.
Iraq, OPEC’s second-largest producer and the biggest laggard in complying with the OPEC+ group’s production cuts, saw its crude oil exports increase to 2.868 million barrels per day (bpd) in January, up from 2.846 million bpd exported in December 2020, according to data from Iraq’s Oil Ministry cited by Reuters.
Iraq’s exports from the southern export terminals at Basra averaged 2.77 million bpd last month, slightly up from 2.75 million bpd exported from the south in December. Exports from Kirkuk through the Ceyhan pipeline averaged 98,000 bpd in January 2021, also slightly rising from the previous month, according to the oil ministry’s data.
Iraq’s oil revenues also rose in the first month of 2021 thanks to rising oil prices. Iraq generated $4.74 billion in oil revenues in January, at an average oil price of $53.294 per barrel. The price was higher by more than $5 a barrel from the average price of $47.765 at which Iraq sold its oil in December, the data quoted by Reuters showed.
At the end of last month, Ali Nizar, the deputy chief of SOMO, the oil marketing company of Baghdad, said that Iraq would pump less oil in January and February to make up for excess production last year.
For both January and February, Iraq plans average daily output of 3.6 million barrels, Ali Nizar told Bloomberg in an interview. This would compare with 3.85 million barrels daily for December.
Exports will also fall, to some 3 million bpd from 3.3 million bpd for December as long as the Kurdistan Regional Government agrees to cut its oil output as well, Nizar said.
