油气行业领衔福布斯2019年利润增长榜

中国石化新闻网讯 据今日油价8月20日报道，环球数据分析公司（GlobalData）周二表示，《福布斯》2019年全球最大上市公司排行榜前10名中，油气行业利润增幅最大。

GlobalData分析了《福布斯》全球最大上市公司排行榜前10大行业2018年至2019年的销售和利润年度变化情况。分析公司发现,在利润增长方面，最大的赢家是石油和天然气行业，在2018年至2019年期间利润增长36.3%，其次是技术和通信业，增长19.8%，金属和采矿业增长13.6%，银行业增长12.6%，药品和医疗保健行业增长11.8%。

GlobalData的分析显示，就收入增长率而言，石油和天然气行业击败科技和通信行业，以16.2%的年增长率成为《福布斯》2019年全球收入增长最快的行业。

尽管去年第四季度油价下跌了近40%，但大型的石油和天然气公司，其第四季度和2018年的业绩却相当不错。五大石油公司中的三家（壳牌、埃克森美孚和雪佛龙）公布了其2018年的强劲数据，许多关键指标超过了分析师的预期，盈利达到了自2014年以来的最高水平——2014年油价突破每桶100美元。

Oil & Gas Industry Leads Forbes Profit Growth List In 2019

The oil and gas sector on the Forbes 2019 list of the world’s biggest public companies saw the largest profit growth among the top 10 sectors on the list, data and analytics company GlobalData said on Tuesday.

GlobalData analyzed the annual change in sales and profits between 2018 and 2019 of the top 10 sectors by sales on the Forbes list of The World’s Largest Public Companies.

The analytics company found that the biggest gainer in terms of profit growth was the oil and gas sector with a 36.3-percent increase in profit between 2018 and 2019, followed by technology and communication with 19.8-percent growth, metals and mining growing at a rate of 13.6 percent, banking with a 12.6-percent increase, and pharmaceuticals and healthcare, with 11.8-percent growth.

In terms of revenue growth rates, the oil and gas industry beat technology and communication to emerge as the top sector in the Forbes 2019 list with 16.2 percent annual growth in revenues, GlobalData’s analysis showed.

“The Declaration of Cooperation between OPEC member countries and 11 non-OPEC oil producing countries on 30 November 2017 for voluntary production adjustments to about 1.8 million barrels per day during 2018 had a positive impact on the oil and gas sector,” Parth Vala, Company Profiles Analyst at GlobalData, said, commenting on the company’s findings.

Despite the nearly 40-percent oil price slide in the fourth quarter of last year, oil and gas supermajors booked solid sets of Q4 and 2018 results. Three of Big Oil’s five—Shell, ExxonMobil, and Chevron—reported strong figures for 2018, with many key metrics beating analyst forecasts and some earnings at their highest levels since 2014—the last time the price of oil was above $100 a barrel.

Those companies are on the Forbes 2019 list of the largest public firms, with Shell sitting at number 9, Exxon at 11th, and Chevron at 19th, closely followed by Petrochina at 22nd, BP at 24th, and Total at the 25th spot.
