据路透社4月25日迪拜报道，两位消息人士透露，卡塔尔石油公司（QP）正计划发行其首批以美元计价的公共债券，这家海湾能源巨头打算在当前能源价格低迷时期涉足债券市场。
QP是全球顶尖液化天然气（LNG）供应商。消息人士称，过去几周内该公司曾向多家银行提案要求计划性发行债券。一位消息人士还透露补充称QP或将筹集数十亿美元。
消息人士表示：“这将是笔大交易。”
QP计划在未来数年大举扩张产能，其尚未立即回应关于上述消息的置评要求。
QP去年为应对“新冠”引发的油气需求暴跌而着眼于裁员、降本。
消息人士上周对路透社表示，沙特石油巨头阿美石油公司（Aramco）正计划100亿美元循环信贷再融资，并同时推进一个124亿美元的石油管网变现项目。
QP由卡塔尔政府全资控股，过去曾以美元和日元计价发行过私募债券。路孚特（Refinitiv）数据统计其未偿贷款与债券总额超过325亿美元。

Qatar Petroleum plans debut dollar public bond sale
Qatar Petroleum (QP) is planning its first ever U.S. dollar-denominated public international bond sale, two sources said, the latest Gulf energy giant to tap debt markets in an age of lower energy prices.
The world’s top liquefied natural gas (LNG) supplier sent banks a request for proposals for the planned debt sale in the last few weeks, the sources said, with one of them adding it will likely raise billions of dollars.
“It will be a big deal,” the source said.
QP, which did not immediately respond to a request for comment, plans to vastly expand its capacity in coming years.
QP last year was looking at job and cost cuts to cope with the slump in oil and gas demand caused by the new coronavirus.
Sources told Reuters last week Saudi Arabia’s oil giant Aramco is planning to refinance a $10 billion revolving credit facility. It is also working on a $12.4 billion deal to monetise its oil pipelines network.
QP, wholly owned by the Qatari government, has sold bonds through private placements in the past, including in dollars and in Japanese yen. It has more than $3.25 billion in outstanding loans and bonds, according to Refinitiv data.
