中国石化新闻网讯 据世界石油新闻网2019年9月14日休斯顿报道,美国最大的石油公司埃克森美孚公司和美国第2大石油公司雪佛龙公司日前为在美国最大页岩油气田进行更多收购敞开了大门。 埃克森美孚公司首席执行官达伦·伍兹日前在纽约举行的巴克莱能源会议上对投资者表示,预计“在未来的一段时间里”,位于西德克萨斯州和新墨西哥州的二叠纪盆地将出现行业整合。 伍兹说,如果埃克森美孚公司看到一个机会,那么公司的资产负债表上就有能力“就此进行交易”,但他补充说:“时间在我们这一边。” 雪佛龙公司负责中陆地区业务的副总裁杰夫·古斯塔夫森在巴克莱能源会议上表示,雪佛龙公司也将在二叠纪盆地采取“投机取巧”的做法。 但古斯塔夫森表示:“我们一直在寻找机会,雪佛龙公司没有任何的交易压力。” 古斯塔夫森说:“我认为我们今年早些时候已经证明了这一点。”雪佛龙公司今年春天达成了收购阿纳达科石油公司的协议,但后者最终接受了美国西方石油公司(Oxy)更高的报价。雪佛龙公司此后没有对阿纳达科石油公司及其在二叠纪盆地的持股进行第二次出价。 伍兹今年设定的目标是通过在2021年年底前把埃克森美孚公司的资产组合规模削减至高于2013年至2017年平均33亿美元的水平来筹集150亿美元。到目前为止,资产销售一直低迷。 但伍兹周二表示,如果“我们继续抓住更有吸引力的机会”,埃克森美孚可能会实现其150亿美元的撤资计划。 李峻 编译自 世界石油新闻 原文如下: Exxon, Chevron See Consolidation in Top U.S. Shale Field The two largest U.S. oil and gas companies on Tuesday left the door open for more acquisitions in the country's top shale field. Exxon Mobil Corp expects to see industry consolidation to happen "over some period of time," in the Permian Basin in west Texas and New Mexico, Chief Executive Darren Woods told investors at a Barclays energy conference in New York. If Exxon sees an opportunity it has the balance sheet to "be in a position to transact on that," Woods said, but he added that "time's on our side." Chevron Corp also will take an "opportunistic" approach in the basin, said Jeff Gustavson, vice president of Chevron's Mid-Continent business, at the Barclays conference. "We're always looking," but Gustavson said the company is not under "any pressure to transact." "I think we demonstrated that earlier this year," Gustavson added. Chevron had struck a deal this spring to buy Anadarko Petroleum, which ultimately accepted a higher offer from Occidental Petroleum. Chevron did not make a second bid for Anadarko and its Permian Basin holdings. Woods this year set a target of raising $15 billion by trimming Exxon's portfolio through 2021 above the average $3.3 billion a year rate between 2013 and 2017. Sales so far have been sluggish. But Exxon could increase its planned $15 billion divestment program if "if we continue to capture more attractive opportunities," Woods said Tuesday.
