欧佩克秘书长说，“为了避免剧烈波动，石油行业需要增加产能和新产量的投资”
2016年之前，石油行业的投资每年超过5000亿美元，但此后开始逐年下降
沙特阿美首席执行官认为：油气生产多年投资不足是今天能源危机的主要原因
中国石化新闻网讯 据油价网11月4日报道，石油输出国组织（欧佩克）秘书长本周表示，全球石油行业需要增加产能和新产量的投资，这样石油市场才能避免未来的剧烈波动。
他是在出席在阿布扎比举行的ADIPEC能源会议间隙接受阿联酋通讯社(WAM)独家采访时发表上述讲话的。他在采访中强调了增加对石油行业投资的重要性。
他表示，石油行业投资的大幅下降加剧了石油市场的波动，这种情况始于2015年的价格暴跌，然后在2020年的第一波疫情席卷中再次出现。
他告诉WAM，在2016年之前，石油行业每年的投资超过5000亿美元，但自那以来一直在下降，从而导致产能下降。
他说，目前全球的备用产能非常低，而且掌握在两个主要产油国沙特阿拉伯和阿拉伯联合酋长国手中。
他重申了沙特阿拉伯和其他主要产油国最近的言论，即当前的能源危机是多年来石油和天然气投资不足造成的。
沙特阿美首席执行官阿明•纳赛尔今年9月表示，石油和天然气生产多年来投资不足是今天能源危机的主要原因，当全球经济从目前的放缓中反弹时，剩下的少量剩余石油产能将被消耗殆尽。纳赛尔说，在2014年至2021年期间，石油和天然气投资减少了一半以上，并补充说：“今年全球的投资增加太少、太晚、太短期。”
纳赛尔在9月份曾表示，“这些是造成这种能源不安全状态的真正原因：对石油和天然气的投资不足；选择没有准备好；而且没有备用计划”。
在本周举行的ADIPEC会议上，欧佩克发布了2022年版的《世界石油展望》报告，称“所有形式的能源都需要满足未来的能源需求”，预计到2045年，石油在能源结构中所占的份额仍将是最大的，届时将占到近29%。 欧佩克的展望报告还显示，到2045年，全球石油行业在上游、中游和下游将需要累计投资12.1万亿美元，相当于每年超过5000亿美元。

OPEC: Higher Oil Investments Are Needed To Avoid Rampant Volatility
· OPEC’s Secretary General Haitham Al Ghais: The oil industry needs to increase investment in capacity and new production too avoid rampant volatility.
· Before 2016, investments in the oil industry topped $500 billion per year, but have declined since.
· Aramco CEO Nasser: Years of underinvestment in oil and gas production is the leading cause of today’s energy crisis.
The oil industry needs to increase investment in capacity and new production so that the oil market can avoid high volatility in the future, OPEC’s Secretary General Haitham Al Ghais said this week.
Al Ghais stressed the importance of increasing investments in the oil sector in an exclusive interview with the Emirates News Agency (WAM)>The significant decline in investments in the oil industry, which began with the price crash of 2015 and then again in 2020 with the first COVID wave, is exacerbating volatility in the oil market, OPEC’s secretary general said.
Before 2016, investments in the oil industry topped $500 billion per year, but have declined since, leading to lower production capacity, Al Ghais told WAM.
Spare capacity globally is currently very low and in the hands of two of the major OPEC producers, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
OPEC’s Al Ghais reiterated recent comments from Saudi Arabia and other major producers that have said that the current energy crisis was years in the making with underinvestment in oil and gas.
Years of underinvestment in oil and gas production is the leading cause of today’s energy crisis, and when the global economy rebounds from the current slowdown, the little spare oil production capacity that’s left will be wiped out, Saudi Aramco’s chief executive Amin Nasser said in September. Investment in oil and gas more than halved between 2014 and 2021, Nasser said, adding that “The increases this year are too little, too late, too short-term.”
“These are the real causes of this state of energy insecurity: under-investment in oil and gas; alternatives not ready; and no back-up plan,” Saudi Aramco’s CEO said back in September.
This week at the ADIPEC conference, OPEC launched the 2022 edition of its World Oil Outlook, which says that “all forms of energy will be needed to address future energy needs,” and that oil is expected to retain the largest share in the energy mix through 2045, accounting for almost a 29% share then. OPEC’s outlook also showed that the global oil sector will need cumulative investment of $12.1 trillion in the upstream, midstream, and downstream through 2045, equating to over $500 billion per year.
