据海事追踪公司称，尽管伊朗支持的胡塞叛军持续发动一波又一波袭击，沙特阿拉伯的石油出口依然强劲，维持在接近战时高点的水平。
Saudi Arabia’s oil exports are going strong and holding near war-time highs despite the ongoing wave of attacks from the Iran-backed Houthi rebels, according to maritime tracking firms.
据Vortexa公司称，这个地区最大的石油出口国10月迄今的出口量约为每天650万桶，与上月流量大致相同。Kpler和TankerTrackers.com也印证了这些高流量估计，显示出沙特在胡塞武装对其石油基础设施不断发动导弹和无人机袭击之际的适应能力。
Saudi Arabia, the region’s largest oil exporter, shipped about 6.5 million barrels a day so far in October, around the same volume flowing last month, according to Vortexa. The high traffic estimates were echoed by Kpler and TankerTrackers.com, demonstrating the kingdom’s ability to adapt in the face of the Houthi’s relentless missile and drone attacks on its oil infrastructure.
上月胡塞武装的一次袭击导致沙特的东西向输油管道关闭后，利雅得开始增加经霍尔木兹海峡的运输量，在美国海军护航下，该海峡的交通量正逼近战前水平。据彭博社报道，全球最大能源公司之一沙特阿美还将其红海出口量提高至每天250万桶，较9月增加10万桶。
After a Houthi attack caused the Saudi’s East-West pipeline to shut down last month, Riyadh began to increase its shipments back to the Strait of Hormuz, where traffic is pushing towards pre-war levels under a US naval escort. Saudi Aramco, one of the world’s largest energy companies, also increased its Red Sea exports to 2.5 million barrels a day, up 100,000 barrels from September, Bloomberg reported.
根据这些公司的估计，随着输油管道恢复运行，沙特10月出口激增，帮助抵消了胡塞武装袭击造成的流量下降。出口流量的增长也使沙特得以利用战争导致的高油价，进一步弥补胡塞武装袭击其机场造成的收入损失。
With the pipeline now up and running, the kingdom has seen an October boom that helped offset any drop in flow caused by the Houthi attacks, according to the estimates from the firms. The boost in flow has also allowed Saudi Arabia to take advantage of the sky-high oil prices caused by the war to further combat the loss in revenue caused by the Houthi attacks on its airports.
尽管10月表现强劲，胡塞武装仍在继续轰炸沙特，该叛军组织周二宣称对拉斯坦努拉炼油厂发生的一起火灾负责。该炼油厂是沙特最大的炼油厂，日炼油能力为55万桶。
Despite the strong showing in October, the Houthis continue to bombard the kingdom, with the rebel group claiming responsibility Tuesday for a fire that broke out at the Ras Tanura oil refinery. The facility is the largest of its kind in the nation and capable of refining 550,000 barrels a day.
胡塞武装军事发言人叶海亚·萨里声称，该叛军组织据称向该炼油厂发射了一枚弹道导弹，此外还报告对纳季兰机场和哈米斯穆沙伊特的一个空军基地发动了袭击。沙特官员对此次袭击保持沉默。
The rebel group allegedly fired a ballistic missile at the facility, along with additional strikes reported at the Najran Airport and an airbase in Khamis Mushait, Houthis military spokesperson Yahya Saree claimed. Saudi officials have remained silent about the attack.
持续的袭击使油价居高不下，布伦特原油期货周三触及每桶115美元。
The ongoing strikes have kept oil prices persistently high, with Brent crude futures hitting $115 a barrel on Wednesday.
交易员和投资者也面临着棘手的计算，因为许多从波斯湾运出石油的船只正在关闭应答器以隐藏其位置，这使得追踪其货物变得困难。
Traders and investors are also dealing with difficult calculations as many of the ships carrying oil out of the Persian Gulf are shutting off their transponders to hide their locations, which makes tracking their cargo difficult.
