据3月22日MENAFN消息：沙特阿拉伯国有石油公司沙特阿美(Saudi Aramco)公布2020年全年业绩下滑44％，但仍维持其750亿美元的派息。
报告称，该公司2020年全年净利润为490亿美元，低于2019年的881.9亿美元。这一结果略低于分析师预期的481亿美元，但仍是全球上市公司中表现最差的公司之一。
沙特阿美表示，其收入受到原油价格下跌以及炼油和化工利润率下降的影响。预计未来一年将削减资本支出，并将支出计划从此前的400亿至450亿美元下调至350亿美元左右。
自由现金流减少了近40%，至490亿美元，远低于人们热切期待的股息水平。沙特阿美还宣布2020年750亿美元的股息支出，尽管人们担心它将承担额外的债务来维持这一水平。
随着全球石油和天然气行业遭受重创，油价出现历史性暴跌，2020年包括荷兰皇家壳牌和英国石油在内的西方顶级石油和天然气公司的股价跌至多年来的低点。美国最大的能源公司埃克森美孚在2020年首次公布年度亏损。

Saudi Aramco Profit Dropped 44% In 2020
Saudi Aramco reported a 44% slump in full-year 2020 results but maintained its $75-billion U.S. dividend payment.
Saudi Aramco, Saudi Arabia's massive state oil firm, reported net income of $49 billion U.S. for all of 2020, down from $88.19 billion U.S. in 2019. The result was slightly below analysts' expectations of $48.1 billion U.S. but still represents one of the worst performances of any publicly traded company in the world.
Saudi Aramco said revenues were impacted by lower crude oil prices and weakened refining and chemical margins. The company also said it expects to cut capital expenditures in the year ahead and lowered its guidance for spending to around $35 billion U.S. from a range of $40 billion U.S. to $45 billion U.S. previously.
Free cash flow slumped almost 40% to $49 billion U.S., well below the level of its hotly anticipated dividend. Aramco also declared a payout of $75 billion U.S. for 2020, despite concern that it would take on additional debt to maintain it.
Shares in the top western oil and gas companies including Royal Dutch Shell and BP dropped to multi-year lows in 2020, as the global pandemic wrecked havoc across the oil and gas industry and sparked a historic collapse in the price of oil. Exxon Mobil, the largest U.S. energy company, posted its first annual loss ever in 2020.
