据油价网7月29日消息，周三，沙特统计总局的数据显示，油价上涨和出口增加使得沙特阿拉伯2021年5月的石油出口价值比2020年5月增长了147个百分点。
世界最大石油出口国的官方数据显示，2021年5月，石油出口价值增加了95亿美元(358亿沙特里亚尔)，同比增长146.7%，达到161亿美元(605亿沙特里亚尔)。
2021年5月，沙特商品出口同比增长120.1%，石油出口的增加是商品出口总额增长的主要原因。2020年5月的贸易受到了与新冠疫情相关的封锁和旅行禁令的打击。
在截至2021年5月的一年里，沙特阿拉伯还大幅提高了石油出口在总商品出口中的份额——从2020年5月的65.3%升至2021年5月的73.2%。
今年，由于原油价格上涨，沙特阿拉伯和欧佩克在5月份开始放松减产措施，沙特的出口量有所上升。
沙特今年从石油中获得了更多的收入，特别是与去年第二季度相比，当时超低油价和欧佩克+协议限制了主要石油出口国的石油收入。
根据统计部门的数据，2020年第二季度，沙特的商品和服务出口价值同比下降了55.8%，主要是因为石油出口价值下降了61.8%。
去年的油价暴跌——沙特阿拉伯在 2020 年 4 月最严重的需求崩盘期间向市场大量涌入石油时导致了这一点——迫使沙特采取了一些非常不受欢迎的措施，比如将增值税提高到原来的三倍，减少对贫困家庭的补贴，并停止对政府工作人员的生活补贴。

Value Of Saudi Oil Exports Jumps 147% In May
Higher oil prices and higher exports resulted in a 147-percent jump in the value of Saudi Arabia’s oil exports in May 2021 compared to May 2020, data from the Kingdom’s General Authority for Statistics showed on Wednesday.
The value of oil exports increased by US$9.5 billion (35.8 billion Saudi riyals)—or by 146.7 percent year over year—to stand at US$16.1 billion (60.5 billion riyals) in May 2021, the official data from the world’s top oil exporter showed.
The jump in oil exports was the main driver of the rise in the value of total Saudi exports of goods in May 2021, when merchandise exports jumped by 120.1 percent year over year. The May 2020 trade was hit by the COVID-related lockdowns and travel bans.
Over the course of the year to May 2021, Saudi Arabia also significantly raised the share of oil exports in total merchandise exports—from 65.3 percent in May 2020 to 73.2 percent in May 2021.
This year, the value of Saudi exports rose after crude oil prices rallied and Saudi Arabia and OPEC+ began to relax in May their production cuts.
The Saudis are receiving much more revenues from oil this year, especially compared to the second quarter of last year, when ultra-low prices and the OPEC+ deal limited oil revenues for the key oil-exporting nations.
In Q2 2020, the value of Saudi exports of goods and services plunged by 55.8 percent from a year earlier, mainly due to a 61.8-percent plunge in the value of oil exports, according to the statistics authority.
Last year’s collapse in oil prices—to which Saudi Arabia itself contributed when it flooded the market with oil during the worst demand crash in April 2020—has forced the Kingdom to take some very unpopular measures such as tripling the value-added tax (VAT), reducing payouts to poorer households, and discontinuing cost-of-living allowances for state workers.
