沙特阿美市值飙升至2万亿美元仅次于苹果和微软

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据俄罗斯油气网10月7日利雅得报道，10月6日，沙特国有石油巨头沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司（沙特阿美/Saudi Aramco)的市值达到了2万亿美元。

　　与此同时，美国电脑巨头苹果公司和微软公司的市值分别超过2.3万亿美元和2.1万亿美元。

　　由于原油价格攀升至每桶82美元以上，达到了7年来的最高水平，沙特阿美达到了这一里程碑。

　　全球能源价格一直在飙升，部分原因是一些国家放松了对疫情封锁的限制，导致供应短缺。

　　分析人士说，能源危机继续恶化，目前还没有立即缓解的迹象。

　　据彭博社报道，美国银行分析师预计，油价将在7年内首次超过每桶100美元，并指出油价上涨将增加沙特阿美的利润。

　　沙特阿美首席执行官纳赛尔说，尽管石油行业的投资正在下降，石油公司在减少碳排放方面面临挑战，但沙特阿美仍在努力提高原油产能。

　　沙特政府拥有沙特阿美98%的股份，其余2%股份可在沙特证券交易所购买。

　　Saudi Aramco soars to $2 trillion, ranks 3rd behind Apple and Microsoft

　　Saudi’s state-owned oil company Saudi Aramco reached a valuation of $2 trillion during trading hours on October 6.

　　At the same time, US computer giants Apple and Microsoft were valued at more than $2.3 trillion and more than $2.1 trillion, respectively.

　　Aramco reached the milestone as crude oil prices climb to more than $82 a barrel, the highest in 7 years.

　　Global energy prices have been booming amid a supply shortage in part caused by loosening COVID-19 restrictions in some countries.

　　The energy crisis continues to worsen, and there is no immediate relief in sight, analysts say.

　　Bank of America analysts estimated prices could reach more than $100 per barrel for the 1st time in 7 years, Bloomberg reported, noting that the rising prices add to Saudi Aramco's bottom line.

　　Saudi Aramco CEO Amin Nasser said his company is working on increasing its crude production capacity even as investments in the oil industry is falling down and the company is challenged with reducing carbon emissions.

　　The Saudi government owns 98% of Saudi Aramco, and the rest is available on the Saudi stock exchange.
