美国柴油价格跌破每加仑6美元，创两个月新低，因局势缓和、需求走弱纽约，11月14日电 — 燃油价格追踪机构GasBuddy的数据显示，美国全国平均零售柴油价格于周六降至每加仑5.998美元，跌破6美元关口，为两个月来首次。此前受地缘政治紧张局势缓和及季节性需求疲软影响，燃油市场压力减轻，柴油价格从历史高位回落。
US diesel below $6 a gallon at 2-month low on easing tensions, weaker demand NEW YORK, Nov 14 - US diesel prices fell below $6 a gallon on average on Saturday after two months above that threshold, retreating from record highs as easing geopolitical tensions and seasonal demand weakness reduce pressure on fuel markets.
此前，美国和以色列对伊朗的战争扰乱石油供应，乌克兰对俄罗斯炼油厂的系统性袭击阻碍生产，导致柴油价格飙升。
Diesel had surged as the US-Israeli war against Iran disrupted oil supplies and Ukraine's systematic attacks on Russian refineries stymied production.
柴油价格居高不下作为运输和货运成本的关键驱动因素，推高整体通胀，给消费者、农民和企业带来痛苦。高昂燃油成本是民主党在本月中期选举中夺取参众两院控制权、击败特朗普总统领导的共和党的主要因素之一。
Elevated diesel prices, a key driver of transportation and freight costs, have boosted overall inflation, causing pain for consumers, farmers and businesses. High fuel costs were a major factor helping Democrats sweep both houses of Congress from President Donald Trump's Republicans in this month's midterm elections.
根据GasBuddy数据，全国平均零售柴油价格于9月3日升至每加仑5.820美元，打破2022年俄罗斯全面入侵乌克兰后创下的纪录。柴油价格于9月10日突破每加仑6美元，并于9月22日触及历史新高6.519美元。
The national average retail diesel price was $5.998 on Saturday, according to fuel price tracker GasBuddy. It had risen to $5.820 a gallon on September 3, breaking the record set after Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022. Diesel topped $6 a gallon on September 10 and hit a record $6.519 on September 22.
在加利福尼亚州，由于炼油产能受限、燃油标准比全美其他地区更严格，柴油价格一度短暂突破每加仑10美元。
In California, where refining capacity is constrained and fuel specifications are more stringent than elsewhere in the country, diesel prices briefly exceeded $10 a gallon.
特朗普政府推出多项旨在缓解成本的措施，包括暂时免除红柴油联邦税、放宽对俄罗斯燃油的制裁，并启动80亿美元援助计划帮助农民抵消秋收期间较高的燃油成本。然而，由于持续的伊朗战争引发的供应担忧继续主导市场，这些措施仅提供有限缓解。
The Trump administration has introduced several measures aimed at easing costs, including temporarily lifting federal taxes on red-dyed diesel, easing sanctions on Russian fuel and launching an $8 billion support program to help farmers offset higher fuel costs during the autumn harvest. Those measures, however, provided only limited relief as supply concerns caused by the ongoing Iran war continued to dominate the market.
季节性因素及原油价格下跌（柴油价格与原油价格紧密相关）目前正帮助价格回落。过去两周，布伦特原油期货下跌18.5%。
Seasonal factors and a drop in crude oil prices, to which diesel prices are closely linked, are now helping bring prices down. Brent crude futures are down 18.5% over the past two weeks.
GasBuddy石油分析主管帕特里克·德·汉表示，需求通常在秋季走弱，因为人们开车减少，飓风季结束，墨西哥湾沿岸炼油厂中断风险下降。他表示，炼厂检修也基本在11月前完成，使生产率得以恢复。
Demand typically softens in the autumn as people drive less, hurricane season winds down and the risk of Gulf Coast refinery disruptions declines, said Patrick De Haan, GasBuddy's head of petroleum analysis. Refinery maintenance is also largely completed by November, allowing production rates to recover, he said.
根据GasBuddy数据，这些因素也导致汽油价格本月首次跌破每加仑4美元，为8月10日以来首次。
These factors have also contributed to gasoline falling below $4 per gallon this month for the first time since August 10, according to GasBuddy data.
