据4月5日路透社报道，油价周一下跌，抵消了前一交易日的强劲涨幅，这是由欧佩克+决定逐步缓解5月至7月的减产规模。
格林尼治标准时间06：15，6月份布伦特原油期货价格下跌96美分，跌幅1.5%，至每桶63.90美元;5月份美国西德克萨斯中质原油价格下跌89美分，跌幅1.5%，至每桶60.56美元。
两种合约上周四结算价均超过每桶2美元，因投资者认为欧佩克+的决定表明，该组织认为当前市场是需求引领的复苏，加上美国2万亿美元基础设施支出计划提振了市场乐观情绪。
由于复活节假期，周五市场休市。欧佩克、俄罗斯及其盟友同意在5月、6月和7月分别放宽每日35万桶、35万桶和40万桶左右的产量限制。
此前，美国新政府呼吁世界最大石油出口国沙特阿拉伯保持消费者负担得起的能源，尽管欧洲部分地区仍处于封锁状态，而日本可以根据需要扩大紧急措施，以遏制新一波新冠肺炎感染。
根据周四达成的协议，欧佩克+ 5月份的减产幅度将略高于650万桶/天，4月份为略低于700万桶/天。此外，沙特阿拉伯表示，将在7月前逐步取消额外的自愿减产，此举将使日产量增加100万桶。随后，沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司(Saudi Aramco)上调了5月份对亚洲的官方售价(OSPs)。
华侨银行驻新加坡分析师Howie Lee表示："产出上升后，OSP也随之上升，我认为这也显示出欧元区对需求复苏的信心。"
高盛(Goldman Sachs)分析师表示，这一决定表明欧佩克+将谨慎而有序地增产，从而形成一个较紧张的石油市场。该行预计，今年夏季石油需求将大幅反弹，这将要求欧佩克+在7月至10月期间的日产量增加200万桶。

Oil prices fall after prior gains driven by OPEC+ move
Oil prices slipped on Monday, paring strong gains made in the previous session that was driven by the decision by OPEC+ to gradually ease some of its production cuts between May and July.
Brent crude futures for June fell 96 cents, or 1.5%, to $63.90 a barrel by 0615 GMT while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude for May was at $60.56 a barrel, down 89 cents, or 1.5%.
Both contracts settled up more than $2 a barrel on Thursday as investors viewed the OPEC+ decision as an affirmation of demand-led recovery, and optimism was boosted by U.S. President Joe Biden’s $2 trillion infrastructure spending plan.
Markets were closed on Friday because of the Easter holiday.
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, Russia and their allies, a group known as OPEC+, agreed to ease production curbs by 350,000 barrels per day (bpd) in May, another 350,000 bpd in June and further 400,000 bpd or so in July.
The decision came after the new U.S. administration called on Saudi Arabia, the world’s top oil exporter, to keep energy affordable for consumers despite demand concerns as parts of Europe remained under lockdown while Japan could expand emergency measures as needed to contain a new wave of coronavirus infections.
Under Thursday’s agreement, OPEC+ cuts would be just above 6.5 million bpd from May, compared with slightly below 7 million bpd in April.
In addition, Saudi Arabia said it was phasing out its extra voluntary cuts by July, a move that will add 1 million bpd. Following that, Saudi Aramco raised official selling prices (OSPs) for May to Asia on Sunday.
“The raised output was followed by an increase in the OSP, which I think in tandem shows the confidence the bloc has in demand recovery,” Singapore-based OCBC economist Howie Lee said.
Goldman Sachs analysts said the decision pointed to a cautious and orderly ramp-up from OPEC+, allowing for a tight oil market. The bank expects a large rebound in oil demand this summer that will require an additional 2 million bpd of OPEC+ production from July to October.
