中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社休斯顿5月21日报道，先锋自然资源公司首席财务官Rich Dealy周二表示，该公司每天将大约20万桶原油从二叠纪盆地运送到美国墨西哥湾海岸，其中约80%的原油装载到船只上出口。 Dealy在休斯顿召开的RBN能源出口会议上对路透社说，预计出口量的百分比会随着时间的推移而增长。 在Dealy与路透社谈话后，先锋公司宣布将裁员四分之一，即230名员工，以节省1亿美元。 页岩公司已将美国石油产量推至创纪录水平。但多年的巨额支出导致了投资者的压力，要求他们减少支出，用现金来支付，而不是生产更多的石油。 根据美国能源部的数据，自2015年末禁令解除后不到四年，页岩气的繁荣使美国成为世界上最大的石油生产国，平均日出口量接近300万桶。 据路透社根据美国政府数据计算，先锋自然资源公司的出口将占今年美国平均原油出口的6%。 Dealy表示，先锋公司在过去三到四个季度的原油出口中，约有一半出口到了亚洲，另一半出口到了欧洲，约有20个不同的客户。该公司正寻求与外国买家签署长期协议，但市场尚未“进化”到那个程度。 该公司将约三分之一的原油运往德克萨斯州的科珀斯克里斯蒂，三分之一运往休斯顿，其余的运往德克萨斯州的尼德兰。 Dealy称，先锋公司从以国际价格出售石油中受益，通过以国际基准布伦特指数而非米德兰指数的价格出售，先锋在过去五个季度增加了约6亿美元的现金流。目前，米德兰原油的价格为每桶11美元左右，低于布伦特原油，随着更多管道的出现，以及中部和海湾沿岸价格之间的差异不太明显，这种效益将会缩小。 先锋去年转向只使用布伦特进行对冲，公司利用金融合约来管理风险，而不是只使用美国原油期货。 他称："今天的市场是以布伦特为基础的，这是最容易的对冲方式。” 詹晓晶摘自路透社 原文如下： Pioneer Natural sees crude exports rising from U.S. Gulf Coast -CFO Pioneer Natural Resources Co is moving about 200,000 barrels per day (bpd) of crude from the Permian basin to the U.S. Gulf Coast, with about 80 percent of that loaded on ships for export, Chief Financial Officer Rich Dealy said on Tuesday. The percentage of volumes being exported is expected to grow over time, Dealy told Reuters on the sidelines of the RBN Energy Export conference in Houston. After Dealy spoke with Reuters, Pioneer announced it was laying off a quarter of its workforce, or 230 employees, to save $100 million. Shale firms have pushed U.S. oil output to record levels. But years of heavy spending led to investor pressure to reduce spending and use the cash to provide payouts, rather than produce more oil. The shale boom has made the United States the biggest oil producer in the world, with exports averaging nearly 3 million bpd, according to U.S. Energy Department figures, less than four years since the lifting of a ban late in 2015. Pioneer’s exports would represent about 6 percent of average U.S. crude exports this year, based on Reuters calculations from U.S. government data. About half of Pioneer’s crude exports over the past three to four quarters have gone to Asia with the other half shipped to Europe, Dealy said, to about 20 different customers. Pioneer is looking to sign long-term deals with foreign buyers but the market has not “evolved” to that point yet, Dealy said. The company sends about a third of its barrels to Corpus Christi, Texas, a third to Houston and the rest to Nederland, Texas. Pioneer has benefited from selling at international pricing for its oil instead. By selling at prices linked to international benchmark Brent rather than Midland, Pioneer has added about $600 million in cash flow over the past five quarters, Dealy said. Currently, Midland-based crude is priced at about $11 per barrel discount to Brent. The benefit will shrink as more pipes come on and the difference between Midland and Gulf Coast prices is less pronounced, Dealy said. Pioneer switched to solely using Brent last year for its hedging program, where companies use financial contracts to manage risk, instead of exclusively using U.S. crude futures . “The market is based on Brent today. It’s the easiest way to hedge.”
