壳牌预测油价和电价上涨将带来现金增长

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据能源之声网站10月7日报道 壳牌表示，预计天然气和电力价格飙升将提振现金流。

　　这家能源巨头表示，其综合天然气部门的运营现金流预计将受到重大影响。

　　全球最大LNG供应商之一的壳牌表示，预计液化天然气的供应量将在700万-750万吨之间，反映出原料气的限制和维护。

　　相比之下，这家伦敦上市公司在2020年第三季度和2019年第三季度分别为780万和890万吨。

　　天然气价格飙升，因为供应紧张与经济体在从新冠疫情中复苏时对燃料的需求发生了冲突。

　　壳牌表示：“在当前的天然气和电力价格环境下，不包括营运资本在内的经营活动产生的现金流预计将受到大幅变动的利润流入的显著影响，这些流入预计将高于2021年第二季度。”

　　与此同时，这家能源巨头，与飓风艾达有关的墨西哥湾停电将对调整后的收入和现金流产生4亿美元的综合影响。

　　壳牌上游产量降至200万-210万桶油当量/日，其中包括因飓风艾达的影响，产量减少9万桶/日。

　　相比之下，2020年第三季度为390万桶，2019年第三季度为520万桶。

　　Shell predicts cash boost from rising gas and electricity prices

　　Shell (LON: RDSA) has said that it expects cash flow to be bolstered by soaring prices for gas and electricity.

　　The energy giant said cash flow from operations “is expected to be significantly impacted” in its integrated gas segment.

　　Shell, one of the largest suppliers of liquefied natural gas in the world, also said volumes are expected to be between 7.0 – 7.5m tonnes “reflecting feedgas constraints and maintenance”.

　　That compares to 7.8m in Q3 2020 and 8.9m in Q3 2019 for the London-listed firm.

　　Natural gas prices have surged as constrained supply has collided with economies demanding more fuel as they recover from the Covid-19 pandemic.

　　Shell said: “Cash flow from operations excluding working capital is expected to be significantly impacted by large variation margin inflows on the back of the prevailing gas and electricity price environment; these inflows are expected to be higher than the second quarter 2021.”

　　Meanwhile, the energy giant also warned that outages in the Gulf of Mexico linked to Hurricane Ida would have a $400million combined impact on adjusted earnings and cash flow.

　　Upstream production fell to 2.0 – 2.1m barrels of oil equivalent per day, including a reduction of 90,000 per day due to the impact of Hurricane Ida.

　　That compares to 3.9m in Q3 2020 and 5.2m in Q3 2019.
