据普氏能源资讯巴库3月18日消息 能源部长Kanat Bozumbayev周日表示，哈萨克斯坦将于下月关闭Kashagan大型油田的生产，使其产量符合欧佩克/非欧佩克供应协议中承诺的减产六个月。

Bozumbayev在阿塞拜疆巴库对记者表示，未来六个月的平均产量将达到承诺，哈萨克斯坦将减产幅度超过3月、4月和5月的承诺。他表示，3月平均日产量将为182万桶，4月将降至180万桶以下。

根据该协议，哈萨克斯坦迄今已超过了186万桶/天的产量配额。该协议涵盖2019年上半年，主要原因是Kashagan油田产量不断上升。

该部长表示:“目前俄罗斯的石油日产量在30万到35万桶之间，因此这将是一次大幅度减产，几乎是每天20万桶。”他补充说:“我们预计，4月和5月的产量会很低，然后6月产量会回升，所以我们这六个月的平均产量将不到180万桶/日。”

哈萨克斯坦能源部上周公布，2月每日液体产量为189.3万桶，1月为188.5万桶。

Bozumbayev补充说，关于哈萨克斯坦是否加入监督委员会的决定可能会在4月17日至18日在维也纳举行的欧佩克/非欧佩克联盟下次全体会议上作出。

六国委员会目前由沙特阿拉伯和俄罗斯的部长共同主持，还包括科威特、阿尔及利亚、委内瑞拉和阿曼。它的任务是监测市场状况，评估供应削减的遵守情况，并向更广泛的欧佩克/非欧佩克联盟提出建议。

该部长称：“他们向我们提出了这个建议，但(确认新的委员会成员)将在4月份召开的股东大会上进行。”并补充说这不是哈萨克斯坦的想法，但如果其他参与者愿意，哈萨克斯坦对加入该委员会持开放态度。

Kazakhstan will comply with promised oil output cuts as giant Kashagan field shuts

Kazakhstan will shut production at its giant Kashagan oil field next month, bringing its production into compliance for the six months of the promised cuts under the OPEC/non-OPEC supply accord, energy minister Kanat Bozumbayev said Sunday.

The average production over the six months will meet the commitment, as Kazakhstan will reduce output more than promised in March, April and May, Bozumbayev told reporters in Baku, Azerbaijan. Output in March will average 1.82 million b/d, and fall to below 1.8 million b/d in April, he said.

The Central Asian country has to date exceeded its production quota of 1.86 million b/d under the deal, which covers the first six months of 2019, primarily due to rising output at Kashagan.

"Output there is currently between 300,000 and 350,000 b/d, so it will be a significant cut, almost 200,000 b/d," Bozumbayev said. "We expect that in April and May we will have a low output level, then in June it will pick up and so our average output for the six months will be less than 1.8 million b/d."

Last week Kazakhstan's energy ministry reported daily liquids output of 1.893 million b/d in February and 1.885 million b/d in January.

Bozumbayev added that a decision on whether Kazakhstan will join the monitoring committee may be taken at the next full meeting of the OPEC/non-OPEC coalition April 17-18 in Vienna.

The six-country committee is currently co-chaired by ministers from Saudi Arabia and Russia, and also includes Kuwait, Algeria, Venezuela and Oman. It is tasked with monitoring market conditions and assessing compliance with the supply cuts, as well as making recommendations to the wider OPEC/non-OPEC coalition.

"They proposed this to us, but [confirming new committee members] would happen at the general meeting, which will take place only in April," Bozumbayev said, adding that it was not Kazakhstan's idea, but the country is open to joining the committee if other participants are amenable.
