据油价网7月28日报道，美国能源巨头雪佛龙(Chevron)报告称，与2022年同期相比，该公司2023年第二季度的利润有所下降，与其他国际石油巨头一样，由于今年油气价格大幅下跌，利润也出现了下降。
正如几天前的利润亮点所预告的那样，雪佛龙周五表示，其2023年第二季度调整后的收益为58亿美元，即每股3.08美元。与2022年第二季度调整后的收益114亿美元(摊薄后每股收益5.82美元)相比，减少了近一半。
该公司今天表示，由于上游变现减少和成品油销售利润率降低，与去年相比，利润和收入有所下降。
2023年第二季度的销售和其他营业收入从去年同期的654亿美元降至472亿美元，主要由于大宗商品价格下跌。
雪佛龙的全球净油当量产量同比增长2%，主要得益于二叠纪盆地历史新高的77.2万桶油当量/天产量。由于二叠纪盆地产量的增长，美国净石油当量产量增加并创下了新的季度新高。
雪佛龙董事长兼首席执行官在一份声明中表示，“我们的季度财务业绩依然强劲，我们向股东返还了历史新高数额的现金”。
由于在美国的投资增加，该能源巨头第二季度的资本支出增长了18%，该公司计划通过宣布收购PDC Energy的协议，进一步增加在美国的投资。
继壳牌、道达尔能源和Equinor之后，雪佛龙也宣布第二季度利润下降，由于能源大宗商品价格下跌。考虑到2023年第二季度的油均价为每桶75美元，而去年同期为每桶113美元，天然气价格仅为2022年夏季历史最高水平的一小部分，大型石油公司最近一个季度的利润下降并不意外。

Chevron’s Earnings Drop On Lower Energy Prices, Weaker Refining Margins
Chevron reported on Friday lower earnings for the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, joining the other international supermajors in booking reduced profits on the back of much lower oil and natural gas prices this year.
As previewed in profit highlights a few days ago, Chevron said on Friday that its adjusted earnings were $5.8 billion, or $3.08 per share, for the second quarter of 2023. This was more than halved compared to the adjusted earnings of $11.4 billion, or $5.82 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2022.
Earnings and revenues dropped compared to last year due to lower upstream realizations and lower margins on refined product sales, the company said today.
Sales and other operating revenues in the second quarter of 2023 fell to $47.2 billion, down from $65.4 billion in the year-ago period, primarily due to lower commodity prices.
Chevron’s worldwide net oil-equivalent production rose by 2% year-on-year, mostly due to record Permian Basin production of 772,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd). U.S. net oil-equivalent production increased and set a new quarterly record primarily due to the growth in the Permian.
“Our quarterly financial results remain strong, and we returned record cash to shareholders,” Mike Wirth, Chevron’s chairman and chief executive officer, said in a statement.
The supermajor, whose capex in the second quarter rose by 18% mostly thanks to higher investment in the U.S., plans to further boost its investments in the United States with the announced agreement to buy PDC Energy.
Chevron joins Shell, TotalEnergies, and Equinor in reporting reduced profits for the second quarter, on the back of lower energy commodity prices. The drop in profits at Big Oil in the latest quarter wasn’t unexpected, considering that oil prices averaged $75 per barrel in Q2 2023, compared to $113 a barrel in the same quarter last year, and natural gas prices were a fraction of the records seen in the summer of 2022.
