???? 据CNBC网站2月25日消息：受货币宽松政策和美国原油产量下降的支撑，周四油价连续第四个交易日上涨，至13个月以来的最高水平。

????格林尼治标准时间04:00时，4月布伦特原油期货价格上涨19美分，至每桶67.23美元，涨幅0.3％，而4月美国西德克萨斯中质原油期货上涨824美分，涨幅0.38%，至每桶63.46美元。

????这两份合约在早盘触及2020年1月以来的最高水平，布伦特原油价格为67.44美元，西德克萨斯中质原油价格为63.67美元。

????美联储保证利率将在一段时间内保持低位，这提振了投资者的风险偏好和全球金融市场。

????荷兰国际集团分析师在一份报告中表示:“美联储主席杰罗姆·鲍威尔本周早些时候关于货币政策需要保持宽松的言论可能有所帮助，但石油市场的情绪也变得更加乐观，并有望收紧石油平衡。”

????美国能源情报署表示，德克萨斯州罕见的冬季风暴导致上周美国原油产量下降逾10%，或每天减少100万桶。

????全球最大石油消费国的燃料供应也可能收紧，因为其炼油厂原油投入降至2008年9月以来的最低水平。

????包括俄罗斯在内的石油输出国组织(欧佩克+)定于3月4日召开会议。

????欧佩克+消息人士称，鉴于油价回升，该组织将讨论从4月开始适度放松石油供应限制，不过一些人士建议，鉴于抗击疫情的战斗可能再度受挫，暂时保持稳定。

????今年2月和3月，沙特阿拉伯额外的自愿减产收紧了全球供应，支撑了油价。

????Oil prices hit 13-month highs on tighter supplies, Fed assurance on low rates

????Oil prices rose for a fourth straight session on Thursday to the highest levels in more than 13 months, underpinned by monetary easing policies and lower crude production in the United States.

????Brent crude futures for April gained 19 cents, 0.3%, to $67.23 a barrel by 0400 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude for April was at $63.46 a barrel, up 824cents, 0.38%.

????Both contracts touched their highest since January 2020 earlier in the session with Brent at $67.44 and WTI at $63.67.

????An assurance from the U.S. Federal Reserve that interest rates would stay low for a while boosted investors’ risk appetite and global financial markets.

????“Comments from Fed Chairman, Jerome Powell, earlier in the week relating to the need for monetary policy to remain accommodative have probably helped, but sentiment in the oil market has also become more bullish, with expectations for a tightening oil balance,” ING analysts said in a note.

????A rare winter storm in Texas has caused U.S. crude production to drop by more than 10%, or 1 million barrels per day (bpd) last week, the Energy Information Administration said.

????Fuel supplies in the world’s largest oil consumer could also tighten as its refinery crude inputs had dropped to the lowest since September 2008.

????The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and their allies including Russia, a group known as OPEC+, is due to meet on March 4.

????The group will discuss a modest easing of oil supply curbs from April given a recovery in prices, OPEC+ sources said, although some suggest holding steady for now given the risk of new setbacks in the battle against the pandemic.

????Extra voluntary cuts by Saudi Arabia in February and March have tightened global supplies and supported prices.
