中国石化新闻网讯 据离岸工程网站1月19日消息 据路透社周二报道，哈里伯顿公司周二公布的第四季度利润好于预期，主要受去年行业低迷后成本削减以及油田设备和服务需求复苏的提振。 这家第二大服务提供商削减了季度股息，减少了资本支出和劳动力，以应对需求下降，因为其客户（石油和天然气生产商）在原油价格跌破盈亏平衡水平的情况下削减了钻井活动。 由于成本削减，哈里伯顿公司在2020年创造了11.5亿美元的自由现金流，高于其目标的10亿美元。 在2020年的最后三个月，原油价格也上涨到平均每桶45美元左右，促使一些产油商完成油井作业。 哈里伯顿第四季度的完井和生产业务收入为18.1亿美元，比第三季度增长15%，钻井和评估业务收入增长1.9%。 哈里伯顿首席执行官杰夫?米勒表示，预计国际市场活动将在2021年第一季度触底，并表示对北美市场的活动势头感到乐观。 哈里伯顿公布了服务提供商第四季度财报，该公司表示，来自北美的收入增长了25.8%，国际收入增长了0.4%。据Refinitiv IBES数据显示，截至12月31日的一季度，公司总收入为32.4亿美元，超过分析师预期的32.1亿美元。 调整后的净收入为每股18美分，比预期高出3美分。 然而，由于活动水平仍远低于上年同期，该公司利润较2019年第四季度下降43.9%，收入下降37.6%。 哈里伯顿股价在2020年下跌了约23%，在上市前交易中上涨了2.7%，至21.30美元。 竞争对手斯伦贝谢和贝克休斯也将在本周晚些时候公布业绩。 吴恒磊 编译自 离岸工程 原文如下： Halliburton 4Q Result Beats Estimates, But Profit Drops 43.9% Halliburton Co posted a better-than-expected fourth-quarter profit on Tuesday, buoyed by cost cuts and a recovery in demand for oilfield equipment and services after last year's industry slump, Reuters reported Tuesday. The second-biggest services provider has slashed quarterly dividend and reduced its capital spending and workforce to cope with the decline in demand as its clients - oil and gas producers - cut drilling activity amid a fall in crude prices below breakeven levels. Halliburton generated free cash flow of $1.15 billion in 2020, above the $1 billion it had targeted, thanks to the cost cuts. Crude prices also ticked up in the last three months of 2020 to average about $45 per barrel, prompting some producers to complete wells. Revenue from Halliburton's completion and production business was $1.81 billion in the fourth quarter, 15% higher than in the third quarter, while its drilling and evaluation revenue rose 1.9%. Halliburton Chief Executive Officer Jeff Miller said he expects international activity to bottom in the first quarter of 2021, adding that he was "optimistic about the activity momentum in North America". Halliburton, which kicked off fourth-quarter earnings for service providers, said revenue from North America rose 25.8%, while international revenue grew 0.4%. Total revenue of $3.24 billion in the quarter ended Dec. 31 beat analysts' estimates of $3.21 billion, according to Refinitiv IBES data. Adjusted net income was 18 cents per share, 3 cents above estimates. However, the company's profit was down 43.9% and revenue fell 37.6% from the fourth quarter of 2019 as activity levels were still well below a year earlier. Halliburton shares, which lost about 23% of their value in 2020, were up 2.7% at $21.30 in premarket trading. Rivals Schlumberger and Baker Hughes are also set to post results later in the week. |
