埃克森美孚二季度亏损11亿美元

据油田技术7月31日报道，埃克森美孚公司宣布，预计第二季度亏损11亿美元。包括19亿美元大宗商品价格上涨带来的非现金存货估值调整。资本和勘探支出53亿美元，比第一季度减少近20亿美元，反映出先前宣布的支出削减。

石油产量为360万桶/天，同比下降了7%，其中液体产量下降了3%，天然气产量下降了12%，这主要反映了新冠肺炎疫情对全球需求的影响，包括经济的疲软和政府的强制减产。

埃克森美孚董事长兼首席执行官表示：“全球疫情和石油供应过剩严重影响了我们第二季度的财务业绩，降低了价格、利润率和销量。我们果断地做出了应对举措，减少了近期的支出，并继续努力通过利用最近的重组来提高效率。到目前为止，取得的进展让我们有信心达到或超过2020年的成本削减目标，并为进一步提高效率奠定坚实的基础。”

该公司已经确定了进一步削减成本的巨大潜力，并正在对各个国家的业务进行全面评估。

ExxonMobil reports US$1.1 billion loss in 2Q20

ExxonMobil has announced an estimated 2Q20 loss of US$1.1 billion.

Results included a positive noncash inventory valuation adjustment from rising commodity prices of US$1.9 billion. Capital and exploration expenditures were US$5.3 billion, nearly US$2 billion lower than first quarter reflecting previously announced spend reductions.

Oil-equivalent production was 3.6 million bpd, down 7% from 2Q19, including a 3% decrease in liquids and a 12% decrease in natural gas, mainly reflecting the impacts of COVID-19 on global demand including economic and government mandated curtailments.

“The global pandemic and oversupply conditions significantly impacted our second quarter financial results with lower prices, margins, and sales volumes. We responded decisively by reducing near-term spending and continuing work to improve efficiency by leveraging recent reorganisations,” said Darren W.Woods, chairman and CEO.

“The progress we’ve made to date gives us confidence that we will meet or exceed our cost-reduction targets for 2020 and provides a strong foundation for further efficiencies.”

The company has identified significant potential for additional reductions and is undertaking a comprehensive evaluation across the businesses on a country-by-country basis.
