又一石油巨头宣布：减产！

Group 1 - Kuwait National Petroleum Company announced a reduction in crude oil and refining output due to threats to the safety of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and a shortage of vessels for transporting crude and refined oil, declaring "force majeure" [2] - The company has not disclosed the specific scale of the production cut, stating that it is a precautionary measure and will assess the situation for potential capacity restoration when conditions allow [3] - Analysts expect that as oil storage capacity in the Middle East becomes increasingly tight, other major oil-producing countries like the UAE and Saudi Arabia may also be forced to cut production, with JPMorgan estimating that if the Strait of Hormuz remains restricted, the daily reduction in crude oil production in the Middle East could exceed 4 million barrels by the end of next week [3] Group 2 - As a major oil-producing country in the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Kuwait's average daily crude oil production was approximately 2.6 million barrels in February of this year [4]
