埃克森美孚和雪佛龙预计将在2022年报告创纪录的1000亿美元的综合利润
埃克森美孚将报告2022年利润将高达创纪录的560亿美元
中国石化新闻网讯 据油价网2023年1月2日报道，市场分析师认为，石油和天然气价格的飙升将转化为美国两大超级巨头埃克森美孚和雪佛龙2022年创纪录的收益，它们的2022年年利润总额近1000亿美元。
这两家石油和天然气巨头受益地缘政治冲突发生后石油和天然气价格的飙升。尽管在2022年的最后几周，油价交易量低于每桶90美元，而且与2021年相比，去年油价的年增长率仅为10%左右，但极端的波动性和每桶100美元以上的频繁飙升帮助所有石油公司，包括美国最大的综合公司，创造了创纪录或接近创纪录的季度利润和现金流。
埃克森美孚和雪佛龙的年度盈利也有望达到历史最高水平。根据《金融时报》援引标普资本编制的估计，埃克森美孚2022年利润将达到创纪录的560亿美元，而雪佛龙公司的盈利预计将超过370亿美元，也是创纪录的高点。
埃克森美孚和雪佛龙在地缘政治冲突的季度收益已经表明，2022年的年度利润将达到历史最高水平。
雪佛龙公司第二季度录得有史以来最高的季度利润，这得益于高油气价格和紧张的燃料市场推动了多年来的高炼油利润。第三季度，雪佛龙公司录得有史以来第二高的季度利润，原因是石油和天然气需求增加以及美国产量增加。埃克森美孚第三季度录得创纪录的196.6亿美元利润，超过了其上一季度录得的179亿美元的前纪录。
雪佛龙公司首席财务官Pierre Breber在10月份的第三季度财报电话会议上表示，雪佛龙公司在2022年 "有望打破”其2021年的自由现金流纪录。
雪佛龙上个月表示，其2023年的有机资本支出将为140亿美元，符合其“长期计划，安全地提供更高的回报和更低的碳”，主席兼首席执行官说。
他说：“尽管有通货膨胀，我们的资本支出预算仍然符合先前的指导意见。我们正以资本高效的增长、强劲的资产负债表和更多的现金返还给股东而赢得投资者。”
埃克森美孚到2027年的企业计划也在2022年12月公布，将年度资本支出维持在200亿至250亿美元，同时将低碳排放的投资增加到170亿美元左右。2023年的投资预计将在230亿至250亿美元之间，以帮助增加供应，满足全球需求。
“我们认为我们的成功是一个‘和’的等式，在这个等式中，我们可以生产社会所需要的能源和产品——并且——在减少我们自己的运营和其他公司的温室气体排放方面成为一个领导者”。
即使他们提高了对清洁能源解决方案的投资，两家超级巨头都表示，他们将继续输送石油和天然气，因为在未来几年甚至几十年里，世界仍将依靠化石燃料运行。
随着最近几周美国汽油价格的下降，指责石油行业的言论已经消退，而政府则为油站价格的下降邀功。
在多个场合，美国石油协会（API）在受到政府的批评后发表了声明。在去年10月底的最近一次声明中，API总裁兼首席执行官说：“政府不应该为价格下跌邀功，为价格上涨推卸责任，而应该认真解决导致天然气价格上涨并造成长期能源挑战的供需失衡问题。”
“石油公司不制定价格——全球大宗商品市场制定价格。增加美国能源的税收会阻碍对新生产的投资，这与需要的东西完全相反。”

Exxon And Chevron Set For Record $100 Billion In Profits In 2022
ExxonMobil and Chevron are expected to report a record $100 billion in combined profits in 2022.
Exxon is set to report a record of as much as $56 billion in profit for 2022.
The surge in oil and gas prices will translate into record-high 2022 earnings for the two U.S. supermajors, Exxon and Chevron, with their combined yearly profits hitting nearly $100 billion, analysts say.
The two oil and gas giants benefited from the soaring price of oil and gas following the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

Exxon and Chevron’s quarterly earnings after the war were already an indication that the yearly profits for 2022 would be at record highs.
Chevron posted its highest-ever quarterly profits for the second quarter, thanks to high oil and gas prices and tight fuel markets driving multi-year high refining margins.

“Our capex budgets remain in line with prior guidance despite inflation,” Wirth said. “We’re winning back investors with capital efficient growth, a strong balance sheet, and more cash returned to shareholders.”
Exxon’s corporate plan through 2027, also unveiled in December, maintains annual capital expenditures at $20-$25 billion, while growing lower-emissions investments to around $17 billion. Investments in 2023 are expected to be in the range of $23 billion to $25 billion to help increase supply to meet global demand.
