    中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价7月24日报道，贝克休斯公司（Bakerhughes）上周五报告称，本周美国石油和天然气钻井平台数量再次下降，减少了2座，达到251座，这是现役钻井平台数量连续第二十次下降。

    目前，石油和天然气钻井平台总数比去年同期减少695座。

    根据贝克休斯公司（Baker Hughes）的数据，本周石油钻井平台数量增加了1台，使总数达到181台，而去年同期为776台。

    本周美国共有68个钻井平台在役。相比之下，一年前有169个钻井平台。

    为了将活跃的钻井平台与供应数据相比较，EIA对美国石油产量的估计在截至7月17日的一周内上升至每天1110万桶。尽管这意味着较前一周增加了10万桶/日，但美国的石油产量仍比美国产量的历史最高水平低200万桶/日。

    本周，加拿大的钻井平台总数增加了10个，达到了42个活跃的钻井平台。目前，加拿大的石油和天然气钻井平台同比下降85%。

    Is The Bottom Finally In Sight For U.S. Drilling Rigs?

    Baker Hughes reported on Friday that the number of oil and gas rigs in the US fell again this week, by 2, to 251, marking the twentieth straight loss in the number of active rigs.

    The total oil and gas rigs are now sitting at 695 fewer than this time last year.

    The number of oil rigs increased for the week by 1 rig, according to Baker Hughes data, bringing the total to 181—compared to 776 active rigs this time last year.

    The total number of active gas rigs in the United States fell this week by 3 rigs, landing at 68 total rigs. This compares to 169 rigs a year ago.

    To compare active rigs with supply figures, the EIA’s estimate for oil production in the United States rose for week ending July 17—the last week for which there is data, to 11.1 million barrels of oil per day. While this represents a 100,000-bpd increase from the week prior, oil production in the United States is still 2 million bpd less than the all-time high for US production.

    Canada’s overall rig count rose this week by 10, settling at 42 active rigs. Oil and gas rigs in Canada are now down 85 year on year.

    Oil prices were trading down on the day in Tuesday morning, still under pressure from reports earlier in the week that showed an unexpected increase in U.S. crude oil inventories. At 12:33pm EDT, WTI was trading down 0.85% at $40.72—essentially flat on the week. Brent was trading down $0.48 at $42.86 nearly $0.40 less than this time last week and a loss of 1.11% on the day.
