中国石化新闻网讯 据OE网站12月31日报道，根据周三发布的一项调查显示，在接受达拉斯联邦储备银行调查的美国能源公司高管中，约有一半预计2021年将增加资本支出，另有四分之一的受访者认为明年的资本支出将保持不变。 新冠疫情导致多达三分之一的全球燃料需求消失，并导致美国基准原油价格在4月份暴跌，甚至在一个交易日结束时跌至负值。石油和天然气公司大幅削减预算和产量。 今年以来油价下跌了20%，但已经从历史低点回升，在接受调查的146家能源公司中，大部分公司都加强了支出计划。在12月9-17日接受调查的高管中，三分之二是勘探和生产企业的高管;其他人在油田服务部门工作。 约25％的受访者表示，他们预计自己的公司将略微增加资本支出，而14％的受访者表示，他们计划明年大幅增加资本支出。 五分之一的预测支出将减少。 一些高管对达拉斯联储表示，预计当选总统拜登政府将出台更严格的石油和天然气法规，可能会收紧美国供应，推高原油价格。 一位匿名的高管称，我们乐观地认为，我们将摆脱过剩的石油供应，更重要的是，石油和天然气供应商，这将导致可持续价格略高。 在最近一系列的合并和收购之后，大多数高管同意勘探和生产公司将继续合并或完全消失。 大约一半的高管表示，到2022年底，上市的独立能源和生产公司的数量将从现在的60家下降到37家。四分之一的高管表示，只剩下25至36家。其余的受访者预测，更少的公司将生存下来。 郝芬 译自 OE 原文如下: US Energy Execs See Capital Spending Rising in 2021 About half of U.S. energy company executives polled by the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas expect their firms to increase capital spending in 2021, and another quarter of respondents see those expenditures remaining flat next year, according to a survey released on Wednesday. The coronavirus health crisis wiped out as much as a third of global fuel demand and sent U.S. benchmark crude prices crashing in April, even ending one trading session in negative territory. Oil and gas companies slashed budgets and curtailed production. Oil prices are down 20% for the year but have recovered from the historic lows, strengthening spending plans for the bulk of the 146 energy firms surveyed. Of the executives polled from Dec. 9 to Dec. 17, two-thirds headed up exploration and production companies; the others were in oilfield services. About 25% of the respondents said they expected their firms to increase capital spending slightly and 14% said they planned significant increases next year. One-fifth predicted spending would decrease. Stricter oil and gas regulations expected from President-elect Joe Biden's administration could tighten U.S. supply and boost crude prices, some executives told the Dallas Fed. "We are optimistic that we will have a weaning of excess oil supply, and more importantly, suppliers of oil and gas and that will lead to a slightly higher sustainable price," said one executive, who remained anonymous. After a recent spate of mergers and acquisitions, most executives agreed exploration and production firms would keep consolidating or disappear entirely. About half said the number of publicly listed independent energy and production firms would fall as low as 37 by the end of 2022, from 60 now. A quarter of the executives said only 25 to 36 would remain. The rest of those surveyed predicted an even smaller number of the companies would survive. |
