据普氏能源资讯5月16日伦敦报道，在发现液压油从阀门泄漏后，英国Flotta原油供应已被关闭进行维修。
这一关闭可能会加剧北海原油市场的紧张，原因是挪威供应中断、季节性维护以及从该地区以外进入欧洲的数量减少。
这个问题是上周末在其claymore平台上发现的，该平台也是Flotta原油流的一部分，也是交付基础设施的关键部分。
该公司在一封电子邮件中说：“我们正在修理从Claymore到Flotta终端的主要出口管道上的一个阀门。这不会对管道的完整性构成威胁，也不会造成碳油气封闭损失的风险。”然而，目前Claymore和该地区其他平台的生产已经停产。“

UK's Flotta crude oil supplies shut in, adding to market tightness
The UK's Flotta crude oil supplies have been shut in for repairs after hydraulic fluid was found to be leaking from a valve Thursday.
The shutdown is likely to compound tightness in the North Sea crude oil market resulting from disruptions to Norwegian supply, seasonal maintenance and reduced volumes entering Europe from outside the region.
The joint venture, gave no indication of when supply would resume, adding that the issue was discovered last weekend at its Claymore platform, which also contributes to the Flotta crude stream and is a key part of the delivery infrastructure.
"We are carrying out repairs to a valve on the main export pipeline from Claymore to the Flotta terminal," the company said in an email. "This presents no threat to the integrity of the pipeline or risk of loss of hydrocarbon containment. However production is currently shut down on Claymore and from the other platforms in the area that come over Claymore."
