据世界石油10月18日报道，受冬季即将来临的能源危机的刺激，油价在连续第八周上涨后，于周一再次走高。
上周，纽约原油期货价格上涨3.7%，突破每桶83美元，为2015年以来持续时间最长的一周上涨。由于天然气短缺，发电行业对燃料油和柴油等石油产品的需求增加。这恰逢主要经济体正在从疫情中复苏。
周一早些时候，西德克萨斯中质原油处于近七年来的最高水平，而全球基准布伦特原油周五自2018年底以来首次突破每桶85美元。欧佩克+联盟仍然只是增加月度供应量。一些成员国甚至无法达到当前的产出目标。
经纪公司PVM oil Associates的分析师Stephen Brennock表示:“在进入冬季之前，需求将超过供应，这应该会保障油价的上行压力。”
价格：
·伦敦时间上午10点32分，纽约商品交易所11月交货的WTI原油价格上涨1.03%，至每桶83.13美元，上周五上涨1.2%。
·在ICE欧洲期货交易所，12月结算的布伦特原油价格上涨0.6%，至85.38美元，上周五上涨1%。
与此同时，随着年度节日的到来，印度的柴油消费量正在加快，10月上半月的销量将增加到病毒爆发前的水平。饱受打击的航空业也有望得到提振，美国将于11月8日向接种疫苗的外国人开放边境。
