據(jù)離岸工程網(wǎng)站2月17日消息 高油價和天然氣價格使得西班牙雷普索爾REP.MC周四公布的收益高于市場預(yù)期，使其有更多的財(cái)力用于低碳業(yè)務(wù)，投資者對能源公司的要求越來越高。

隨著疫情后全球逐漸復(fù)蘇，經(jīng)濟(jì)增長的需求不斷上升，2021年間布倫特原油基準(zhǔn)價格LCoC1和亨利中心天然氣價格分別上升了70%和86%。

對于雷普索爾來說，這意味著2021年的自由現(xiàn)金流年增長70%，至54.5億歐元（61.9億美元）。

公司盈利超出預(yù)期，調(diào)整后的凈收入為8.72億歐元，之前分析師一致認(rèn)為將達(dá)到7.83億歐元。

按當(dāng)前供應(yīng)成本計(jì)算的息稅折舊攤銷前利潤（EBITDA）全年達(dá)到70.7億歐元，高于公司67億歐元的目標(biāo)。

與包括英國石油在內(nèi)的大型競爭對手保持一致。雷普索爾和TotalEnergies正在應(yīng)對監(jiān)管和市場壓力，通過投資可再生能源減少全球變暖的碳排放。

它計(jì)劃在2021年-2025年間將35%的投資分配給低碳活動。該計(jì)劃包括出售其新建可再生能源發(fā)電單元的股份。

雷普索爾去年秋天也將股息提高了5%，至0.63歐元。

與此同時，該公司一直在努力應(yīng)對1月15日秘魯海岸的漏油事件，該公司將其歸咎于數(shù)千英里外的湯加火山爆發(fā)引發(fā)的異常海浪。

雷普索爾周四表示，清理石油的工作正在進(jìn)行中，估計(jì)泄露量為10396桶。（1美元=0.8800歐元）

Repsol Beats Forecasts Thanks to High Oil and Gas Prices

High oil and gas prices helped Spain's Repsol REP.MC to post earnings above market expectations on Thursday, giving it more financial firepower to spend on low-carbon operations investors are increasingly demanding of energy companies.

Benchmark Brent crude oil LCoC1 and Henry Hub gas rose 70% and 86% respectively during 2021 as tight gas supplies collided with rising demand as economies recovered from COVID-19 shutdowns.

For Repsol, this translated into a 70% annual increase in free cash flow from operations to 5.45 billion euros ($6.19 billion) for 2021.

Earnings beat forecasts provided by the company, with adjusted net income at 872 million euros against the company's analyst consensus of 783 million euros.

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) at current cost of supply hit 7.07 billion euros in the full year, above the company's target of 6.7 billion euros.

In line with larger rivals including BP BP.L and TotalEnergies, Repsol is responding to regulatory and market pressure to reduce planet-warming carbon emissions by investing in renewable energy.

It plans to allocate 35% of investments between 2021 and 2025 to low-carbon activities. This plan includes an attempt to sell a stake in its newly created renewable energy generation unit.

Repsol also boosted its dividend 5% last autumn to 0.63 euros.

The company, meanwhile, has been grappling with an oil spill off the coast of Peru on Jan. 15, which it blamed on unusual waves triggered by a volcanic eruption thousands of miles away in Tonga. 

Repsol said on Thursday that "intensive work" was underway to clean up the oil, which it estimated at 10,396 barrels. ($1 = 0.8800 euros)
