中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社12月21日报道，荷兰皇家壳牌公司(Royal Dutch Shell)表示，将对石油和天然气资产减记35亿至45亿美元，今年以来，该公司已经进行了一系列的减值准备，以适应暗淡的市场前景。 壳牌发布的最新报告显示，部分原因是其位于美国墨西哥湾的Appomatox油田出现减值、炼油厂的关闭和一些液化天然气（LNG）合同带来的亏损。 该公司表示，重组中涉及的一些费用将在2021年确认。值得一提的是，壳牌股价在伦敦早盘交易中下跌了约4%。 去年10月，全球最大的液化天然气交易商壳牌(Shell)对其液化天然气投资组合进行了略低于10亿美元的减记，将重点放在了澳大利亚的旗舰项目Prelude上。在此之前，该公司在去年第二季减记资产168亿美元，其中还包括Prelude项目，并大幅下调股价预期。 壳牌首席执行官Ben van Beurden将于2021年2月11日公布壳牌大幅减少温室气体排放、扩大低碳能源和电力业务的长期战略。 在最新报告中，该公司还表示，预计其上游部门的石油和天然气产量约为每天227.5万桶至235.5万桶，略高于第三季度。 由于飓风的影响，墨西哥湾的钻井平台关闭，影响了生产。液化天然气的液化量预计在800万至860万吨之间。 预计本季度炼油产能的利用率将在72%至76%之间，反映出受到新冠肺炎疫情的影响，需求持续疲软。 全球最大的零售商壳牌(Shell)表示，其燃料销售预计在每日400万桶至500万桶之间，与第三季大致持平。 壳牌营销业务(包括逾4.5万个加油站)的创纪录利润有力地推动了该公司第三季度的业绩。不过，该公司表示，其第四季度的营销业绩预计将“明显低于”前一季度。该公司表示，第四季度石油和天然气交易利润也将较第三季度大幅下降。 王佳晶 摘译自 路透社 原文如下： Shell to write down assets again, taking cuts to more than $22 billion Royal Dutch Shell on Monday said it will write down the value of oil and gas assets by $3.5 billion to $4.5 billion following a string of impairments this year as it adjusts to a weaker outlook. In an update ahead of its fourth quarter results on February 4, Shell said the post-tax charge was due in part to impairments on its Appomattox field in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico, the closure of refineries and liquefied natural gas (LNG) contracts. It said some charges involved in its restructuring would be recognised in 2021. Shell shares were down by around 4% in early trading in London. In October, Shell, the world’s biggest LNG trader, wrote down the value of its LNG portfolio by just under $1 billion, focusing on its flagship Prelude project in Australia. That followed a $16.8 billion writedown in the second quarter which also included Prelude and a sharp cut in its price outlook. CEO Ben van Beurden on Feb. 11 will unveil Shell’s long-term strategy to sharply reduce its greenhouse gas emissions and expand its low-carbon energy and power businesses. In its update, the Anglo-Dutch company also said it expects oil and gas production in its upstream division to be around 2.275 to 2.350 million barrels of oil equivalent per day, slightly higher than in the third quarter. Production was impacted by the closure of platforms in the Gulf of Mexico due to hurricanes as well as mild weather in Northern Europe. LNG liquefaction volumes are expected to be between 8 and 8.6 million tonnes. Oil refinery utilisation is expected to be between 72% and 76% of capacity in the quarter, reflecting continued weak demand due to the coronavirus pandemic. Shell, the world’s largest retailer, said its fuel sales were expected to be in a range of 4 to 5 million barrels per day, roughly similar to the third quarter. Record profits from its marketing business, which includes over 45,000 petrol stations, strongly boosted Shell’s third-quarter results. The company said, however, that its fourth-quarter marketing results were expected to be “significantly lower” than the previous quarter. Oil and gas trading profits were also set to decline sharply in the fourth quarter from the third quarter, it said. |
