挪威在2022年实现了创历史纪录的石油和天然气利润
挪威预计在整个2023年将继续实现创纪录的油气收入
尽管利润强劲，但Equinor预计2022年产量将同比仅增长1%，低于计划的2%
中国石化新闻网讯 据油价网2023年1月7日报道，在经历了前几年的成功之后，挪威在2022年再次实现了创纪录的石油和天然气利润，并在可再生能源业务上取得了进展。去年，由于地缘政治局势紧张，欧洲石油和天然气稀缺，能源价格飙升，挪威全年都录得巨额利润。这个北欧强国迅速介入，向其他面临严重能源短缺的欧洲国家提供天然气，为产能大国管道天然气提供了另一种替代物。由于在国际能源市场上的有利地位，挪威预计在整个2023年将继续实现创纪录的油气收入，并发展其绿色能源能力，以支持从化石燃料向可再生能源的逐步转型。
去年10月份，挪威能源巨头Equinor宣布了创纪录的第三季度利润，在7月至9月期间实现利润243亿美元，超过2021年同期实现的97.7亿美元利润。这主要是由于疫情后需求增加和天然气价格上涨，自地缘政治冲突开始以来，天然气价格几乎上涨了两倍。Equinor第三度利润数字高于此前预测的235亿美元。
尽管利润强劲，但Equinor预计2022年的油气产量将同比仅增长1%，低于计划的2%。这主要归咎于约翰斯维尔德罗普大油田二期开发项目的延误，该项目预计将在今年12月份开始运营，而不是10月份。 Equinor预计约翰斯维尔德罗普大油田二期开发项目将使其原油产量日增22万桶。
挪威政府认为，挪威的成功将延续到2023年，预计今年石油和天然气的收益将达到1310亿美元。这将创造新的纪录，比2022年增长18%，比2021年增长4倍。Equinor预计今年平均日产量为430万桶，超过2022年的410万桶。
虽然挪威石油和天然气行业继续提高化石燃料产量，并获得创纪录的利润，但人们担心，挪威仍然依赖温室气体排放量高的能源。自2020年以来，挪威几乎完全使用可再生能源。但Equinor仍在运营大型、高利润的石油和天然气项目，以应对全球日益增长的能源需求。对于一个努力成为世界可再生能源领导者和绿色转型先驱的国家来说，挪威仍然严重依赖其石油和天然气财富。挪威是全球人均国内生产总值(GDP)排名第7的富裕国家，由于石油和天然气的发展，挪威的收入在去年大幅增长。这有助于挪威向可再生能源能力发展注入资金，并支持其他国家的发展。然而，这是以环境为代价的发展。

Norway’s Oil Profits Soared To New Heights In 2022
· Norway saw record oil and gas profits in 2022.
· Norway expects to continue achieving record earnings throughout 2023.
· Despite strong profits, Equinor expected to achieve a 1 percent growth in production in 2022 compared to the previous year, lower than the planned 2 percent rise.
Following several previous successful years, Norway>In October, Norwegian oil and gas firm Equinor announced record third-quarter profits, achieving $24.3 billion in the July-September period, and over $9.77 billion in the same period of 2021. This was largely due to increased post-pandemic demand and higher gas prices, which almost tripled since the beginning of the conflict. This figure was greater than its previous earnings prediction of $23.5 billion.
Despite strong profits, Equinor expected to achieve a 1 percent growth in production in 2022 compared to the previous year, lower than the planned 2 percent rise. This was blamed primarily>And the Norwegian government believes the country’s success to extend well into 2023, with anticipated earnings from oil and gas of $131 billion for the year. This would set a new record, marking an 18 percent rise>While Norway’s oil and gas industry continues to boost its fossil fuel production and see record profits, there are concerns about the ongoing reliance on energy sources with high greenhouse gas emissions. Since 2020, Norway has run almost entirely on renewables. But it still operates large-scale, highly profitable oil and gas projects in response to the growing global demand for energy. For a country that strives to be a world leader in renewable energy and a forerunner in the transition to green, it still relies heavily on its oil and gas wealth. Norway is the seventh wealthiest country by GDP per capita, and has seen its earnings soar over the last year thanks to oil and gas. This helps it pump funds into renewable energy capacity development, as well as supporting other countries in their development. Yet, it is at the cost of the environment.
