中国石化新闻网讯 据离岸工程10月28日报道，尽管石油和天然气价格下跌，但埃尼集团第三季度的利润仍然强劲，超出预期。
继壳牌公司和道达尔能源公司之后，这家意大利巨头本周的收益延续了历史新高。这种表现为投资者带来了更大的回报，同时也使该行业成为世界各国政府关注的焦点。各国政府正在努力应对能源成本，并考虑进一步干预市场。
埃尼集团首席执行官克劳迪奥·德斯卡尔齐在周五的一份声明中表示，尽管原油价格下跌，炼油利润率迅速下降，但我们仍然取得了出色的业绩，这主要得益于国际业务的强劲表现。
埃尼集团是意大利股市中业绩最好的公司，米兰股市周五上午9点31分，该公司股价上涨1.31%。这是股市下跌时仅有的两只上涨股之一。
根据该声明称，第三季度调整后净收入为37.3亿欧元（约合37.2亿美元），而分析师平均预估为32.1亿欧元。较上一时期季度的38.1亿欧元有所下降。
今年前9个月，该公司在本国的净亏损约为10亿欧元。
产量问题
埃尼石油和天然气日产量降至158万桶油当量，该公司下调了全年产量预期。
主要由于尼日利亚局势的恶化、哈萨克斯坦Kashagan油田的意外关闭以及挪威产量的下降，埃尼集团目前预计今年日均产量为163万桶油当量，低于3月份估计的170万桶油当量。
由于成功利用了价格波动，埃尼天然气部门公布了约10亿欧元的调整后营业利润，远高于分析师预期的1.596亿欧元。该公司的全年业绩预期提高到18亿欧元以上。
该公司证实，假设基准布伦特原油价格在80欧元—90欧元之间，计划今年回购24亿欧元的股票，并支付每股0.88欧元的股息。
尽管今年的能源市场动荡提振了利润，但也使埃尼集团旗下可再生能源部门上市的努力落空。据知情人士称，该公司目前排除了在2023年之前让这个数十亿美元的部门进行首次公开募股的可能性。

Eni Profit Beats Estimates
Eni SpA’s profit remained strong in the third quarter, beating estimates despite a decline in oil and gas prices.
The Italian giant follows Shell Plc and TotalEnergies SE, which extended a run of historically high earnings this week. The performance is delivering greater returns for investors, while also keeping the industry in the cross-hairs of governments around the world that are grappling with the cost of energy and considering further market interventions.
“Despite a decline in crude oil prices and a rapid fall in refining margins, we have continued to deliver positive results, mainly thanks to the robust performance of our international businesses,” Eni Chief executive officer Claudio Descalzi said in a statement>Eni was the best performer in the Italian stock market, with shares up 1.31% at 9.31am in Milan. It was>Third-quarter adjusted net income was €3.73 billion ($3.72 billion), compared with an average analyst estimate of €3.21 billion, according to the statement. That’s down from €3.81 billion in the prior period.
The company posted a net loss in its home country of about €1 billion in first nine months of the year.
Production Problems
Eni’s oil and gas production dropped to 1.58 million barrels of oil equivalent a day and the company reduced its full-year output estimate.
Due mainly to a worsening situation in Nigeria, unplanned shutdowns at the Kashagan field in Kazakhstan, and lower production in Norway, Eni now expects to pump an average of 1.63 million barrels of oil equivalent a day this year, down from an estimate 1.7 million given in March.
Eni’s gas unit posted about €1 billion of adjusted operating profit, well ahead of the average analyst estimate of €159.6 million as the company successfully exploited price volatility. Full-year guidance for the business was raised to more than €1.8 billion.
The company confirmed its plan to buy back €2.4 billion of stock this year and pay a dividend of €0.88 per share, assuming the price of benchmark Brent crude is between €80 and €90.
While this year’s energy market turbulence has boosted profits, it has also scuppered Eni’s efforts to list its renewables arm. The company is currently ruling out an initial public offering of the multibillion-dollar division until 2023, people familiar with the matter said.
