石油设备网讯 据路透社3月23日报道，在主要产油国之间的争端中，非洲产油国是最早受到冲击的，目前，他们正忙于重新调整与原油价格挂钩的预算。
本月早些时候，欧佩克+未能就减产协议达成一致，导致原油期货跌至2014年以来的最低水平，布伦特原油价格跌至每桶30美元以下。
非洲撒哈拉以南地区约有14个国家生产石油，占年度出口收入的大部分。这些国家包括尼日利亚、安哥拉、南苏丹和加蓬等。目前这些国家的预算是建立在原油价格在每桶50美元到60美元之间的情况下的。
随着2月份原油销量下滑，许多石油生产商已经受到了影响。3月初，彭博社报道称，来自非洲两大产油国（安哥拉和尼日利亚）的4月份装船货物中，约有70%尚未找到买家。

African producers feel pain of lower oil prices
African oil producers are early collateral damage in the dispute between major oil producers, as they now scramble to re-adjust budgets tied to the price of crude.
A collapse in talks between Opec members and non-Opec members led by Russia earlier this month saw crude oil futures fall to their lowest levels since 2014, with Brent falling below $30 per barrel.
about 14 countries in sub-Saharan Africa produce oil, which accounts for most of their annual export income. These include Nigeria, Angola, South Sudan and Gabon among others. Current national budgets are built around a dollar price in the $50-$60 range for most of them.
Many oil producers were already hurting as the volume of crude sales fell in February, as major customer China drastically curtailed purchases as it struggled with the coronavirus that cut deep into energy consumption.
In early March, Bloomberg reported that about 70 per cent of April-loading cargoes from two of Africa’s largest producers Angola and Nigeria, had yet to find buyers.
