據管道新聞網4月23日消息稱，兩名消息人士稱，沙特阿美預計將為2015年籌集的100億美元債務安排再融資，這將是該石油巨頭今年第三次大舉進軍貸款市場。

　　2015年，全球最大的石油公司沙特阿美與眾多國際和當地銀行提高了這種循環信貸計劃。

　　這筆融資包括兩筆五年期貸款，一筆以美元計價，一筆以里亞爾計價，還有兩筆一年期的可續期貸款，也以兩種貨幣結算。

　　它還為購買其石油管道業務股份的投資者安排了105億美元的貸款。

　　兩名銀行業消息人士稱，該公司目前正計劃為100億美元的循環貸款再融資，證實了LPC的一份報告。LPC是Refinitiv旗下的一家固定收益新聞服務公司。

　　其中一名消息人士稱："他們會來進行再融資，而不是像現在那樣以一年為基礎滾動。"

　　兩家銀行消息人士之一說，沙特阿美公司最近已與銀行達成協議，將去年5月籌集的單獨的一年期100億美元貸款再延長一年。

　　沙特阿美上個月表示，2020年該公司的債轉股比率較前一年增加了一倍多，達到55%，此前該公司承諾，盡管利潤下滑，但仍將提供750億美元的股息來支持國家國庫。

　　Saudi Aramco to Refinance $10 billion Revolving Loans

　　Saudi Aramco is expected to refinance a $10 billion debt facility raised in 2015, two sources said, in what would be the oil giant's third major foray into the loan market this year.

　　Aramco, the world's largest oil company, raised the revolving credit facility in 2015 with a wide group of international and local banks.

　　That financing included two five-year loans, one in U.S. dollars and one in riyal, and two annually renewable one-year loans, also split between the two currencies.

　　It is also arranging a $10.5 billion loan for investors buying a stake in its oil pipeline business.

　　It is now planning to refinance the $10 billion revolving loans, two banking sources said, confirming a report by LPC, a fixed income news service that is part of Refinitiv.

　　"Rather than keep rolling it on a year basis, which is where it is right now, they’ll come and do a refinancing," said one of the sources.

　　Aramco has recently agreed with banks to extend by a year a separate one-year $10 billion loan it raised in May last year, said one of the two banking sources.

　　Aramco's debt-to-equity ratio more than doubled to 55% in 2020 from a year before, it said last month, after the group kept a pledge to deliver a $75 billion dividend to support state coffers despite a slide in profits.
