據(jù)離岸工程網(wǎng)站7月28日消息 挪威Equinor周三公布，由于石油和天然氣價格上漲，其第二季度利潤大幅增長，但由于其挪威國內(nèi)子公司未達到預(yù)期，其盈利低于預(yù)期。

　　該公司表示，4-6月季度經(jīng)調(diào)整后的稅前利潤從去年同期的3.5億美元增至46.4億美元，低于20名分析師進行的調(diào)查預(yù)測的48億美元。

　　該公司還表示，將開始計劃已久的股票回購的第一階段，并計劃在9月28日前斥資3億美元。

　　首席執(zhí)行官安德斯·歐佩達爾在一份聲明中表示：“嚴格的資本紀律和超過45億美元的凈現(xiàn)金流將我們的凈負債率降至16.4%，使我們對大宗商品價格未來的波動保持強勁?！?/p>

　　凈負債率比第一季度的24.6%有所下降。

　　這家國有控股公司上個月在小股東的壓力下承諾，盡管石油產(chǎn)量繼續(xù)攀升，但仍將加快對可再生能源和低碳解決方案的投資。

　　Equinor's 2Q Profit Rises

　　Norway's Equinor posted a sharp increase in second-quarter profit on Wednesday as prices of oil and gas rose, but its earnings fell short of expectations as its domestic Norwegian unit missed forecasts.

　　Adjusted earnings before tax rose to $4.64 billion in the April-June quarter from $350 million in the pandemic-hit year-earlier period, the company said, lagging the $4.8 billion predicted in a poll of 20 analysts compiled by Equinor.

　　The company also said it would begin the first phase of a long-planned share buyback, and aims to spend $300 million on the program by Sept. 28.

　　"Strict capital discipline and a net cash flow of more than $4.5 billion reduced our net debt ratio to 16.4% and make us robust for volatility in commodity prices going forward," Chief Executive Anders Opedal said in a statement.

　　The net debt ratio was down from 24.6% in the first quarter.

　　The state-controlled firm, under pressure from minority shareholders to boost its climate ambitions, last month vowed to speed up investments in renewable energy and low carbon solutions even as its petroleum output continues to climb.
