中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社伦敦1月10日消息，知情人士表示，来宝集团（Noble Group）正在关闭其伦敦石油业务，并逐步退出亚洲石油业务，因严重亏损及高负债迫使这家曾经的亚洲最大的大宗商品贸易商进行重组。 此前在去年10月份来宝集团宣布将美国石油贸易业务出售给维多公司，该公司还在去年11月公布1-9月总计亏损约30亿美元。自那时以来，来宝一直在逐步退出在伦敦和新加坡剩余的石油贸易业务，很多重要交易员已转投竞争对手门下。知情人士称：“美国石油业务在来宝集团石油业务中占很大比例。剩下的要么已经关闭，要么正处在出售的最后阶段。”来宝集团的一位发言人未予置评。 张春晓 摘译自 路透社 原文如下： Troubled Noble Group says goodbye to global oil trading Noble Group is closing down its London oil desk and winding down its Asia oil operations, sources familiar with the matter said, as heavy losses and high debt force what was once Asia's biggest commodities trader to restructure. The closures follow the sale of its larger U.S. oil trading business to Vitol, announced in October, and a nine-month loss of some $3 billion reported in November. Since then, Noble has been winding down its remaining oil trading operations in London and Singapore, with many key traders leaving to join competitors. "That (U.S. oil business) comprised the material share of Noble's oil business. The rest ... has either closed or is in the final process of sale," a source familiar with the matter said. A spokeswoman for Noble Group declined to comment. |
