据道琼斯4月14日消息，欧佩克周二表示，世界上一些最富裕的国家正在努力应对居高不下的冠状病毒感染率，但光明的前景和历史性的刺激计划将提振今年的经济活动和石油需求。
欧佩克在其备受关注的月度市场报告中将2021年全球石油需求预测上调10万桶/日，并将全球经济增长预测上调0.3个百分点至5.4%。
欧佩克表示，其提高石油需求预测的原因是，预计下半年的情况好于预期，因为实施了刺激计划且进一步放宽了疫情封锁措施，并且疫苗接种加速铺开，主要是在经济合作与发展组织这个富裕国家俱乐部内。

OPEC Sees Oil Demand Boosted by Stimulus and Vaccine Programs
Some of the world's wealthiest nations are grappling with stubborn coronavirus rates, but a brightening outlook and historic stimulus packages will boost economic activity and oil demand this year, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries said Tuesday.
In its closely-watched monthly market report, OPEC increased its 2021 global oil demand forecast by 100,000 barrels a day and raised its forecast for global economic growth by 0.3 percentage points to 5.4%.
The cartel said its increased demand forecast was prompted by forecasts of a better-than-expected second half of the year, thanks to "stimulus programs and a further easing of Covid-19 lockdown measures, amid an acceleration in the vaccination rollout," largely in the club of wealthy nations known as the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development.
