据8月8日MENAFN消息：能源巨头沙特阿美表示，由于油价上涨，其2021年第二季度利润较去年同期增长近四倍。
沙特阿美表示，由于石油市场更强劲、炼油和化学品利润率更高，以及新冠疫情限制的放松，该公司今年第二季度的净利润增至255亿美元，高于2020年同期的66亿美元。
沙特阿美首席执行官Amin Nasser在一份声明中表示：“我们第二季度的业绩反映了全球能源需求的强劲反弹，随着全球复苏势头增强，我们将更具弹性和灵活性地进入2021年下半年。”。
大约两个月前，该公司宣布首次发行以美元计价的伊斯兰债券，筹资60亿美元。今年早些时候，该公司公布第一季度利润跃升30%。
沙特阿拉伯的摇钱树阿美石油公司2020年净利润暴跌44.4%，这给政府财政带来了巨大压力，因为利雅得正在推进其数十亿美元的项目，以实现经济多元化。
由于沙特阿拉伯去年受到新冠肺炎疫情引发的低价和减产的双重打击，该公司的债务攀升。
在阿拉伯联合酋长国阻止了一项协议后，世界主要产油国上月达成妥协，同意继续适度提高8月份的产量。
欧佩克+会议决定从8月开始增产40万桶/天，以帮助推动全球经济复苏。

Saudi Aramco Q2 profits nearly quadruple compared to 2020
Energy giant Saudi Aramco said Sunday its second quarter profits for 2021 had nearly quadrupled compared to the same period last year on the back of higher oil prices.
Aramco said its net profit rose to $25.5 billion in the second quarter of the year, compared to $6.6 billion in the same quarter of 2020, owing to a stronger oil market and higher refining and chemicals margins, and with the easing of Covid-19 restrictions.
"Our second quarter results reflect a strong rebound in worldwide energy demand and we are heading into the second half of 2021 more resilient and more flexible, as the global recovery gains momentum," Aramco chief executive Amin Nasser said in a statement.
The announcement comes approximately two months after the company said it raised $6 billion from its first dollar-denominated Islamic bond sale, posting earlier this year a 30 percent jump in first quarter profits.
Aramco -- the kingdom's cash cow -- posted a 44.4 percent slump in 2020 net profit, piling pressure on government finances as Riyadh pursues its multi-billion dollar projects to diversify the economy.
The company's debt has climbed as Saudi Arabia was hammered last year by the double whammy of low prices and sharp cuts in production triggered by the coronavirus pandemic.
The world's leading oil producers agreed last month to continue to modestly boost output from August reaching a compromise after the United Arab Emirates blocked a deal.
An OPEC+ meeting decided to raise output by 400,000 barrels per day (bpd) each month from August to help fuel a global economic recovery as the pandemic eases.
