近期，受供应过剩预期加剧与俄乌和谈重启双重影响，国际油价持续走低，油市年终收官疲软。不过， 国际石油巨头凭借降本举措，仍取得了良好的业绩。 雪佛龙业绩同样惊艳。其三季度全球日产量达409万桶油当量，同比增长21%，其中美国本土日产量达 204万桶油当量，同比增幅27%，两项数据均创历史新高。业绩方面，其三季度净利润降至35.4亿美 元，每股收益从2.48美元降至1.82美元，但营收仅小幅下滑至481.7亿美元，增产效应有效抵消了油价下 跌的负面影响。 对于2026年走势，油企高管普遍预判油市仍将低迷：预计西得克萨斯中质油(WTI)年末价格为62美元/ 桶，低于美国能源信息署(EIA)预测的2025年均价65.32美元。据EIA展望，2026年布伦特原油均价或为 55.08美元/桶，WTI均价则降至51.42美元/桶。市场供需格局则存在明显变数：若特朗普政府推动俄乌冲 突落幕并取消对俄制裁，2026年油市或将陷入严重的供过于求状态；若制裁延续，叠加伊朗、委内瑞拉 减产，市场有望趋近平衡。不过油企高管对原油市场长期走势看法更为乐观，预计2027年WTI均价将回 升至69美元/桶，2029至2030年进一步升至75 ...
