Is it fair to assume that the vector intrinsics and Forall statements are optimized to work on multi-processor systems and with hyperthreading?

If this is the case it seems that OpenMP is not so much required in Fortran 95.

No, I wouldn't assume that. If you ask for auto-parallelization, you may get this, but not by default.

OpenMP is a lot more than just running loops in parallel.
