中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社2023年8月26日新德里报道，全球石油巨头英国石油公司（bp）表示，全球必须增加投资石油和天然气生产，以避免油气价格飙升，同时加速能源转型，以遏制温室气体排放。
bp首席执行官鲁尼在新德里表示，去年全球天然气价格飙升了7倍，这是由于紧张的地缘政治局势导致了全球3%的天然气供应受到打击，迫使各国增加能源支出并转向煤炭发电。
鲁尼在新德里举行的G20会议上说：“我们需要两者兼顾。我们需要负责任地投资今天的能源系统，同时，我们必须投资加速能源转型。”
鲁尼表示，尽管全球做出了努力，但自2015年巴黎气候变化会议以来，温室气体排放水平仍在上升，能源转型必须有序进行，以保持其步伐。
总部位于巴黎的能源监督机构国际能源署（IEA）预计，今年全球石油需求将日增220万桶。
鲁尼表示，到本十年中期前，bp将把40%的资本投资能源转型项目，到本十年结束前，这一比例将达到50%。鲁尼说：“在未来十年，我们将在能源转型增长引擎方面投资550亿至650亿美元。”
bp与其合作伙伴印度信诚工业有限公司在印度投资能源项目，迄今已建立大约3000个电动汽车充电点，高于1月份的750个。两家公司已经建立了300个电池交换站。此外，bp投资了印度的天然气行业，其风险投资部门收购了预约电动车初创公司BluSmart的股份。
鲁尼说：“我非常期待未来几年我们将在印度做得更多。”

BP urges more oil, gas investment while speeding energy transition
New Delhi: Global oil major BP said the world must invest in the production of oil and gas to avoid to sharp price spikes while accelerating the energy transition to combat greenhouse gas emissions.
Global gas prices surged seven-fold last year as 3 per cent of global gas supplies were hit following the geopolitical conflicts, forcing countries to boost energy spending and shift to coal, BP CEO Bernard Looney said in New Delhi.
“We need to do both. We need to invest in today’s energy system responsibly and, at the same time, we must invest in accelerating energy transition,” Looney told the B20 conference.
Energy transition has to be orderly to maintain its pace as emission levels have risen since the Paris conference on climate change in 2015, despite global efforts, he said.
The Paris-based energy watchdog International Energy Agency expects global oil demand to hit a record 2.2 million barrels per day this year.
Looney said his company would invest 40 per cent of its capital on energy transition projects by the middle of this decade and 50 per cent by the end of the decade. “We will invest between $55 and $65 billion as BP this decade in energy transition growth engines,” he said.
BP, investing in energy projects in India along with its partner Reliance Industries Ltd, has set up about 3,000 electric vehicle charging points to date, up from 750 in January. The two have set up 300 battery swapping stations.
BP has invested in India’s gas sector, and its venture arm has bought a stake in electric ride-hailing startup BluSmart.
“I have every expectation that we will do more in India in years to come,” Looney said.
