今日石油网站2023年7月11日报道,美国能源部时下正在寻求购买另外600万桶原油来补充其战略石油储备。根据7月7日能源部的通知,到8月份,美国能源部的原油总购买量将达到1200万桶。
美国战略石油储备是美国国家能源安全的重要组成部分,在紧急情况或地缘政治不确定的情况下提供缓冲。然而,不断变化的全球形势、地缘政治冲突以及现有油田的日趋成熟,促使美国政府寻求替代来源,以补充其战略石油储备。
圭亚那蓬勃发展的石油工业为美国多样化能源组合提供了一个独特的机会。圭亚那有利的投资条件使其成为有吸引力的能源合作目的地。此外,圭亚那原油储量的特点是含硫量低,符合美国对清洁燃料的偏好。
地理位置接近是圭亚那原油对美国吸引力增强的另一个优势。圭亚那位于美国墨西哥湾沿岸附近,可以提供物流优势,包括降低运输成本和缩短运输距离。这一地理位置确保了圭亚那原油快速高效地运送到美国炼油厂,进一步加强美国的能源安全。
圭亚那目前的原油储量为110亿桶。到2027年前,圭亚那原油日产量可能达到惊人的130万桶,使该国成为该地区最大的原油生产国之一。

US to purchase another 6 million barrels of oil to add to strategic reserve replenishment
The US Department of Energy is seeking another six million barrels of oil to add to its Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) replenishment. By August, the DOE’s total purchase will stand at 12 million barrels, according to a July 7 notice.
The US Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR), a critical component of the nation’s energy security, provides a cushion during emergencies or geopolitical uncertainties. However, changing global dynamics, the war, and the maturity of existing oil fields have prompted the US government to seek alternative sources for replenishing its strategic reserves.
Traditionally, the US has heavily relied on oil imports from politically volatile regions, particularly the Middle East.
Guyana’s burgeoning oil industry offers a unique opportunity for the United States to diversify its energy portfolio. Guyana’s favourable investment conditions make it an attractive destination for energy collaboration. Furthermore, the quality of Guyana’s oil reserves, characterised by low sulfur content, aligns with the US’s preference for cleaner fuels.
Geographical proximity is another advantage that strengthens the appeal of Guyana’s oil for the US. Located near the US Gulf Coast, Guyana can offer logistical advantages, including reduced transportation costs and shorter shipping distances. This geographical proximity ensures the swift and efficient delivery of Guyanese oil to US refineries, further enhancing the nation’s energy security.
Guyana’s current oil reserves stand at 11 billion barrels. Output could reach a staggering 1.3 million barrels per day by 2027, catapulting the country to one of the largest producers in the region.
