中国石化新闻网讯 据彭博新闻社休斯敦报道，据知情人士透露，英国石油公司（BP）时下正在考虑出售其在墨西哥湾的Constellation油田的多数股权，同时考虑推进一项撤资计划。 由于没有授权对外透露此事而要求匿名采访的知情人士说，这家英国石油勘探和生产巨头已经与深水资产的潜在买家进行了接触，这笔交易的价值可能在2亿美元左右。 知情人士说，这一深水油田预计将吸引股东人数有限的同行和更大公司的兴趣。BP的一位代表拒绝置评。 BP首席执行官伯纳德?鲁尼计划BP在2025年前剥离250亿美元资产，以削减债务，把公司转型为清洁能源巨头，此次股权出售只是这个计划的一小部分。彭博新闻社6月份曾报道称，BP还在讨论出售阿曼一个关键气田大约10%的股份。到目前为止，投资者仍对BP的计划持怀疑态度。今年截至10月21日，BP的股价下跌了58%，使其市值减少到了400亿英镑(520亿美元)。 在今年的油价暴跌期间，墨西哥湾已经成为一个稳定来源和一个稳定的现金流来源，这与过去6年形成了鲜明对比，当时许多公司都忽视了海上地区，转而青睐页岩。 BP的网站显示，BP拥有Constellation油田66.7%的股权，这个油田的原油日产量约为1万桶。其余部分股权由运营商美国西方石油公司（Oxy）持有，Oxy去年斥资370亿美元收购了阿纳达科石油公司，从而继承了这些股权。到目前为止，Oxy一直持有前阿纳达科石油公司在墨西哥湾地区的资产。 李峻 编译自 彭博社 原文如下： BP considering deepwater Gulf of Mexico stake sale BP is weighing a sale of its majority stake in the Constellation oilfield in the Gulf of Mexico, according to people familiar with the matter, as it pushes ahead with a divestment program. The oil exploration and production giant has reached out to potential buyers of the deepwater asset, which could achieve a value of around $200 million in any sale, the people said, asking not to be identified because they aren’t authorized to speak publicly. The field is expected to attract interest from closely held peers and larger corporations, according to the people. A representative for BP declined to comment. A sale would form a small part of BP Chief Executive Officer Bernard Looney’s plan to divest $25 billion in assets by 2025 to cut debt and transform the company into a clean-energy giant. BP is also in discussions about a sale of a roughly 10% stake in a key gas field in Oman, Bloomberg News reported in June. Investors have so far remained skeptical of the plans, with BP’s stock down 58% this year through Wednesday, giving it a market value of 40 billion pounds ($52 billion). The Gulf of Mexico has emerged as a source of stability and a steady source of cash-flow during this year’s oil-price rout, in contrast to the previous six years when the offshore region was overlooked by many companies in favor of shale. BP owns 66.7% of the Constellation field, which produces about 10,000 barrels a day, according to its website. The remainder is held by operator Occidental Petroleum Corp., which inherited it through its $37 billion purchase of Anadarko Petroleum Corp. last year. Occidental has so far held onto the former Anadarko Gulf assets,. |
