中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社休斯顿报道，埃克森美孚披露了其新生能源交易业务的规模，去年每个季度的营业损益约为2.3亿美元，这是该公司首次披露这些数据。 这家全球最大的公开交易石油生产商去年发起了一项能源交易的重大行动，聘请了嘉能可、诺布尔集团、英国石油公司以及美国、欧洲和亚洲其他地方的资深人士，该公司还招聘了在原油、天然气、气体液体和汽油方面有经验的市场分析师和专家。 根据上周在Scotia Howard Weil年度能源投资者会议上向分析师们做的报告显示，该交易部门在2018年每季度的税前收益和亏损平均为2.3亿美元。根据一份监管文件，全年的营业利润为1000万美元，而前一年亏损了9900万美元。 该交易部门去年的盈利只是埃克森美孚（208亿美元）其中的一小部分，但披露的一系列运营利润，也是其新兴业务的一个里程碑。 竞争对手荷兰皇家壳牌和英国石油公司也拥有规模较大的大宗商品交易业务，传统上也没有为这一活动提供详细的结果。例如，壳牌将其交易结果打包进炼油业务；英国石油公司则将其交易作为下游业务的一部分。 能源咨询公司IHSMarkit上游股票研究和分析执行主任李斯勒·布林克尔（Lysle Brinker）表示，由于缺乏一致和具体的财务披露，很难比较大型企业的运营情况。 布林克尔说：“埃克森美孚在历史上没有涉足过这一行业，但他们现在正在涉足这一行业，他们现在意识到他们可能和其他人一样成功。" 埃克森美孚的一位发言人拒绝置评，并在提交给美国证券交易委员会（SEC）的年度报告中提到了季度区间数据和全年业绩。 在埃克森美孚首席执行官Darren Woods的领导下，公司寻求利用交易来提高收益，运用其对地区石油和天然气价格的知识，以及大量的管道、仓储码头、船舶和铁路车辆，从全球各地的价格差异中获利，它还扩大了风险管理体系。 詹晓晶摘自路透社 原文如下： Exxon offers first glimpse of results from expanded trading unit Exxon Mobil Corp has offered a glimpse of the scale of its nascent energy trading operation, disclosing operating profit and losses of about $230 million during each quarter last year, the first time it has revealed the figures. The world’s largest publicly traded oil producer last year launched a major push into energy trading, hiring veterans from Glencore, Noble Group, BP Plc and elsewhere in the United States, Europe and Asia. It also recruited market analysts and specialists with experience in crude, natural gas, gas-liquids and gasoline. The trading unit’s pre-tax gains and losses averaged $230 million in each quarter of 2018, according to a presentation delivered to analysts last week at the Scotia Howard Weil investor conference. For the full year, trading provided an operating profit of $10 million, up from a $99 million loss in the prior year, according to a regulatory filing. The profit was a fraction of Exxon’s $20.8 billion in earnings last year. But the disclosure of even an range of operating profit was a milestone in shedding light on its fledging business. Rivals Royal Dutch Shell and BP, which have larger commodities trading businesses, traditionally also have not provided detailed results for that activity. Shell for instance wraps its trading results in with its oil refining business. BP also includes its trading as part of its downstream operations. Comparing the majors’ operations are difficult because of the lack of consistent and specific financial disclosures, said Lysle Brinker, executive director of upstream equity research and analysis at energy consultancy IHSMarkit. “Exxon Mobil has not historically been into that business, but they’re getting into it now,” Brinker said. “They realize now they probably can be just as successful as the other guys.” An Exxon spokesman declined comment, pointing to the quarterly range figures in the presentation and full-year results in its annual report to the Securities and Exchange Commission. Under Chief Executive Darren Woods, Exxon has sought to use trading to boost earnings, applying its knowledge of regional oil and gas prices, and its extensive array of pipelines, storage terminals, ships and railcars to profit from price differentials around the globe. It also has bulked up its risk management systems.
