中國石化新聞網訊 據石油新聞2020年11月22日杜拜報導，沙烏地阿拉伯前能源大臣哈利德·法利赫11月21日表示，「即使世界加速轉向可再生能源，歐佩克最大產油國沙烏地阿拉伯很可能在未來數十年裡繼續以同樣的水平出口石油。」
法利赫曾在2016年至2019年擔任沙烏地阿拉伯能源大臣，他在利雅得舉行的G20峰會上發表講話時警告說，不要迅速向可再生能源過渡，因為這可能會對經濟造成損害。
現任沙烏地阿拉伯投資大臣的法利赫說，「沙烏地阿拉伯王國認為世界在能源轉型中需要各種能源，而從化石燃料過渡到非化石燃料需要數十年時間，也許需要多代人的時間，這個行程我們必須小心謹慎地走下去，確保它不會擾亂和破壞全球經濟。
沙烏地阿拉伯是世界上最大的原油出口國，並聲稱其低廉的生產成本使其在全球石油需求下降的情況下仍能保持霸主地位。
根據總部設在利雅得的聯合石油資料庫(JODI)的最新數據，沙烏地阿拉伯9月份的原油日出口量為606.6萬桶，高於6月份的498萬桶，當時沙烏地阿拉伯與歐佩克和幾個盟友一道大幅減產，以應對冠狀病毒疫情大流行造成的影響。
自那以後，這些削減已經部分緩解。在新冠肺炎疫情大流行之前，沙烏地阿拉伯的平均原油日出口量在700萬桶左右。
法利赫說，他預計沙烏地阿拉伯將保持強勁的原油出口，但他也強調了沙烏地阿拉伯在其能源轉型計劃下努力發展本國氨工業。
法利赫說，「如果我們繼續以未來幾十年的石油和天然氣出口水平出口，我將不會感到驚訝，因為世界需要石油和天然氣。」「但與此同時，我們出口的能源可能與可再生能源相同，而且以不同的形式出口。其中一種將是藍色和綠色氨。」

Energy transition aside, Saudi Arabia to maintain oil exports 'for decades,' official says
OPEC kingpin Saudi Arabia is likely to continue exporting oil at the same levels "for decades to come," even as the world hastens the shift towards renewables, its former energy minister Khalid al-Falih said Nov. 21.
Speaking at the G20 summit in Riyadh, Falih, who served as energy minster from 2016 to 2019, cautioned against a rapid transition to renewables, citing potential damage to the economy.
"The kingdom believes that the energy transition that the world is going to need all energy sources, and that the transition from fossil to all-non-fossil fuels is a multi-decade, perhaps a multi-generational, journey that we have to take deliberately and carefully and make sure it does not disrupt and break the global economy," said Falih, who is currently Saudi Arabia's investment minister.
Saudi Arabia is the world's largest exporter of crude and has touted its low cost of production as enabling it to remain top dog, even if global demand for oil subsides.
It exported 6.066 million b/d in September, according to the latest data from the Joint Organizations Data Initiative, up from 4.98 million b/d in June when it made deep production cuts in concert with OPEC and several allies to combat the impact of the coronavirus pandemic.
Those cuts have since been partially eased. Prior to the pandemic, Saudi crude exports typically averaged around 7 million b/d.
Falih said he expects Saudi Arabia to maintain its robust exports, but also highlighted the kingdom's efforts in developing its ammonia industry under its energy transition plans.
"I wouldn't be surprised if we continue to export at the level we are exporting for decades to come, in terms of oil and gas, because the world needs it," Falih said. "But at the same time maybe we will be exporting the same level of energy that is generated from renewables and exported in different forms. One of them will be blue and green ammonia."
