据今日油价网站5月10日消息 彭博社援引布伦特原油价格大幅上涨的消息称，上个月欧洲原油进口激增近100万桶/日。
尼日利亚、美国和巴西等出口国受益于北海几个大型油田的维护和该大陆石油需求的复苏（尽管疲弱）所造成的价格趋势。
彭博社援引咨询公司FGE短期市场研究主管James Davis的话报道称：“对欧洲的套利已经打开，这应该会鼓励更多资金流入，尤其是来自美国，或许还有尼日利亚的资金，而印度的需求仍存疑问。”
彭博社援引Kpler分析师Emmanuel Belostrino的话报道称：“欧洲需求的增加可能与未来几个月放松封锁的预期有关。”
尽管全球最大的石油进口国之一印度的Covid-19病例激增，但油价连续两周上涨。虽然印度的病例每天上升6位数，但由于接种疫苗，欧洲和美国开始更加积极地重新开放，这激发了对需求的乐观情绪。
越来越多的美国州重新开始营业。在欧洲，欧盟表示，计划从6月份开始允许外国游客进入欧盟，以避免其旅游业又一个被破坏的夏季。
Vanda Insights周五在一篇市场评论中表示：“美国经济加速增长以及整个欧盟夏季重新开放计划所带来的乐观情绪，仍然是石油综合体的主要动力。”
美国劳工部周五公布的就业报告显示，就业复苏远逊于预期。即便如此，该报告似乎也不会对物价产生负面影响，尽管该报告暗示，就业复苏可能需要比预期更长的时间。

European Oil imports Surge In April
Crude oil imports into Europe surged by close to 1 million bpd last month, Bloomberg reports, citing a sharp rise in Brent crude prices.
Nigeria, the United States, and Brazil were among the exporters that benefited from the price trend caused by maintenance at several large producing fields in the North Sea and a recovery, albeit weak, in oil demand on the continent.
“The arbitrage to Europe has opened up, and that should encourage higher inflows particularly from the U.S. and perhaps also Nigeria whilst Indian demand remains in doubt,” consultancy FGE’s head of short-term market research James Davis said, as quoted by Bloomberg.
“The increasing demand from Europe could be tied to anticipation of easing up on lockdowns in the months to come,” according to Emmanuel Belostrino, an analyst at Kpler, as quoted by Bloomberg.
Oil prices recorded two consecutive weeks of gains despite the surge in Covid-19 cases in India, which is among the world’s top importers of oil. While cases in India rose by six figures every day, Europe and the United States began to reopen more actively thanks to vaccinations, which spurred optimism for demand.
More and more U.S. states are reopening for business. In Europe, the EU has stated it plans to start allowing foreign tourists into the bloc as of June in a bid to avoid another destroyed summer season for its tourism industry.
“The euphoria over an accelerating US economy and summer reopening plans across the European Union remains in the driver’s seat for the oil complex,” Vanda Insights said in a market commentary on Friday.
It appears that even the Friday jobs report from the U.S. Labor Department, which revealed a much weaker recovery in hiring than expected, could not affect prices negatively despite the fact it suggested the recovery in employment may take longer than anticipated.
