伦丁能源将派息提高25% 三季度利润增长近三倍

　　中国石化新闻网讯 据离岸工程网10月29日报道 瑞典独立石油公司伦丁能源周五表示，公司第三季度营业利润较一年前增长近三倍后，将在2021年提高25%的股息。

　　伦丁7-9月的息税前利润（EBIT）从一年前的3.623亿美元上升至10.7亿美元，这得益于创纪录的季度产量和不断上涨的石油和天然气价格。

　　该公司表示，将提议将2021年的每股股息从2020年的1.8美元提高到2.25美元，相当于6.4亿美元。

　　伦丁首席执行官尼克·沃克表示：“我们的世界级生产资产继续表现出色，具有卓越的生产效率和业界领先的低运营成本，在第三季度创造了创纪录的产量。”

　　伦丁持有挪威巨型Johan Sverdrup油田20%的股份，该公司表示，在第三季度产量升至创纪录的19.4万桶/日后，预计全年产量将接近其指导值18-19.5万桶/日的上限。

　　该公司周四宣布以3.2亿美元从OMV手中进一步购买巴伦支海Wisting石油开发公司25%的股份。

　　该交易使伦丁在Equinor运营的5亿桶石油开发项目中的股份达到35%，预计2028年开始生产。

　　Lundin Energy to Lift Dividend by 25% as 3Q Profit Nearly Triples

　　Swedish independent oil firm Lundin Energy will raise its dividend for 2021 by 25% after its third-quarter operating profit almost tripled from a year ago, the company said on Friday.

　　Lundin's earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) for July-September rose to $1.07 billion from $362.3 million a year ago, helped by record quarterly output and rising oil and gas prices.

　　The company said it would propose to increase the dividend for 2021 to $2.25 per share, an equivalent of $640 million, from $1.8 per share paid for 2020.

　　"Our world-class producing assets keep on outperforming, with excellent production efficiency and industry-leading low operating costs, delivering record production in the third quarter," Lundin's Chief Executive Nick Walker said.

　　Lundin, which has 20% stake in Norway's giant Johan Sverdrup oilfield, said it expected full-year output towards the upper end of its guidance of 180,000-195,000 boepd, after its output rose to a record 194,000 boepd in the third quarter.

　　The company announced on Thursday buying a further 25% stake in the Wisting oil development in the Barents Sea from OMV for $320 million.

　　The deal takes Lundin's stake to 35% in the 500 million barrel oil development operated by Equinor, with expected production start in 2028.
