据OE网站2月22日报道，葡萄牙石油和天然气公司Galp Energia周一将派息减半，此前该公司公布去年第四季度净利润暴跌98%，由于冠状病毒大流行影响了炼油利润率和产量。
该公司表示，将提议2020年股息为每股0.35欧元（合0.4237美元），将前一年支付的每股0.70欧元减半。
Galp在一份声明中表示，削减股息反映了来自意外和前所未有的市场状况的影响。并补充道，计划在2021年支付每股0.50欧元的股息。
去年4-6月间，Galp在Sines的最大部门和最小部门Matosinhos停产。10月初，该公司在Matosinhos再次停产，目前仍处于停产状态。
该公司表示，按开采权益计算，去年第四季度产量降至12.28万桶油当量/天，前一年同期为13.69万桶油当量/天。
去年第四季度，该公司炼油利润率从前一年同期的每桶3.3美元降至1.6美元。
调整后的净利润从上年同期的1.57亿欧元降至300万欧元，利息、税项、折旧及摊销前利润(EBITDA)下降37%至4.1亿欧元。
Galp全年亏损4,200万欧元，而2019年盈利5.6亿欧元，EBITDA下降34%，至15.7亿欧元。
该公司表示，由于疫情蔓延，“考虑到不确定的宏观环境，公司将采取更多的谨慎措施”，预计2021年EBITDA将在16亿-18亿欧元之间。
净利润和EBITDA已经调整，以反映公司原油库存的变化。

Galp Sees Q4 Profit Drop 98%, Slashes Dividend
Portugal's oil and gas company Galp Energia cut its dividend payout by half on Monday after posting a 98% plunge in fourth-quarter net profit as the coronavirus pandemic hammered refining margins and output fell.
The company said it would propose a dividend of 0.35 euros ($0.4237) per share for 2020, halving the 0.70 euros per share paid the previous year.
"The dividend cut reflects the impact from unexpected and unprecedented market conditions", Galp said in a statement, adding that it would target a 2021 payout of 0.50 euros per share.
Galp suspended production at its largest unit in Sines and its smallest, Matosinhos, between April and June. It stopped production again at Matosinhos in early October, and it remains suspended.
The company said production in the fourth quarter fell to 122,800 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd) on a working interest basis, from 136,900 boepd a year earlier.
Its refining margin fell to $1.6 per barrel in the fourth quarter from $3.3 in the same period last year.
Adjusted net profit fell to 3 million euros from 157 million a year earlier, while earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) fell 37% to 410 million euros.
For the full year, Galp swung to a loss of 42 million euros from a profit of 560 million euros in 2019, while EBITDA fell 34% to 1.57 billion euros.
The company said that due to the pandemic, it is incorporating "additional layers of prudency given the uncertain macro circumstances", and expects EBITDA of between 1.6 and 1.8 billion euros in 2021.
Net profit and EBITDA has been adjusted to reflect changes in the company's stocks of crude. ($1 = 0.8251 euros)
