原标题：美国连续14个月增加油气钻机

　　中国石化新闻网讯据能源世界网9月25日新德里报道，本周美国能源公司连续14个月增加了油气钻机，因为墨西哥湾的更多海上设施在8月底飓风艾达袭击海岸关闭后，重新恢复使用。

　　根据能源服务公司贝克休斯公司(Baker Hughes)周五在其密切关注的报告中表示，本周，墨西哥湾有3台海上钻机恢复使用。

　　在截至9月3日结束的当周，因艾达，在墨西哥湾作业的所有14台海上石油钻机（均位于路易斯安那州附近）都停止作业。

　　贝克休斯表示，作为未来产量早期指标的油气钻机数量，在截至9月24日的当周上升9台至521台，为2020年4月以来的最高水平。

　　与去年同期相比，钻井总数增加260台，涨幅100%。

　　由于油价上涨促使钻探公司重返井场，本月，钻探公司增加了13台钻机，这是自2017年7月以来首次连续14个月增加钻机数量。

　　本季度，钻探公司增加51台钻机，这是自2018年12月以来首次连续四个季度增加。美国石油钻机本周增加10台，至421台，为2020年4月以来的最高水平，而天然气钻机减少1台，至99台，为8月以来的最低水平。

　　上周五，美国原油期货交易价格在每桶74美元左右，接近7月以来的最高水平，由于全球生产中断导致的库存减少超过预期。

　　今年迄今为止，油价上涨了约53%，一些能源公司表示，在过去两年削减钻井和完井支出后，他们计划在2021年增加支出。

　　不过，由于大多数公司继续专注于增加现金流、减少债务和增加股东回报，而不是增加产量，因此支出增幅仍然很小。

　　U.S. drillers add oil and gas rigs for 14th month in a row -Baker Hughes

　　U.S. energy firms this week added oil and natural gas rigs for a 14th month in a row as more offshore units in the Gulf of Mexico returned to service after shutting when Hurricane Ida slammed into the coast in late August.

　　This week, 3 offshore rigs returned in the Gulf of Mexico, energy services firm Baker Hughes Co said in its closely followed report on Friday.

　　During the week ended Sept. 3, all 14 offshore oil rigs operating in the Gulf of Mexico, all of which were located off Louisiana, shut due to Ida.

　　The oil and gas rig count, an early indicator of future output, rose 9 to 521 in the week to Sept. 24, its highest since April 2020, Baker Hughes said.

　　That puts the total rig count up 260 rigs, or 100%, over this time last year.

　　For the month, drillers added 13 rigs, putting the count up for a 14th month in a row for the first time since July 2017, as rising oil prices have prompted drillers to return to the wellpad.

　　For the quarter, drillers added 51 rigs putting the count up for a fourth quarter in a row for the first time since December 2018. U.S. oil rigs rose 10 to 421 this week, their highest since April 2020, while gas rigs fell 1 to 99, their lowest since August.

　　U.S. crude futures were trading around $74 a barrel on Friday, putting them near their highest since July, as global output disruptions cause bigger than expected inventory draws.

　　With oil prices up about 53% so far this year, some energy firms said they plan to boost spending in 2021 after cutting drilling and completion expenditures over the past two years.

　　That spending increase, however, remains small as most firms continue to focus on boosting cash flow, reducing debt and increasing shareholder returns rather than adding output.
