據(jù)油價(jià)網(wǎng)7月31日消息稱，沙特阿美生產(chǎn)基礎(chǔ)油的子公司Luberef報(bào)告稱，盡管收入大幅下降，但今年第二季度的利潤增長了3.9%。

據(jù)《福布斯》報(bào)道，該公司在沙特證券交易所的一份聲明中公布了這些數(shù)據(jù)，并將利潤增長歸因于稅收調(diào)整，這減少了公司的開支，提高了利潤率。

該公司公布，今年第二季度的銷售額為6.931億美元，低于去年同期的8.797億美元。利潤為1.213億美元。

Luberef去年上市，發(fā)行額接近30%即5000多萬股。據(jù)《國家報(bào)》報(bào)道，該公司在首次公開募股中籌集了13.2億美元。

沙特阿美擁有這家生產(chǎn)基礎(chǔ)油公司70%的股份。另外30%被當(dāng)?shù)赝顿Y銀行Jadwa收購。Luberef在沙特阿拉伯有兩個(gè)生產(chǎn)設(shè)施，年生產(chǎn)能力為130萬噸基礎(chǔ)油。

由于國際市場油價(jià)下跌，母公司沙特阿美今年的利潤有所下降。沙特阿美公司將于下月公布第二季度業(yè)績。與大型石油巨頭一樣，沙特阿美公布的第一季度凈收益較低，原因是需求下降和油價(jià)下跌。

但沙特阿美公司第一季度的凈收益仍然令人印象深刻，達(dá)到319億美元，但低于去年同期的395億美元。路透社當(dāng)時(shí)指出，這仍高于分析師的預(yù)期。

沙特阿美一直在積極擴(kuò)大其下游業(yè)務(wù)，以確保其原油生產(chǎn)的長期需求。該公司最近與巴基斯坦簽署了一項(xiàng)新的煉油廠協(xié)議，最終收購了一家亞洲石化生產(chǎn)商的股份，并與道達(dá)爾能源公司達(dá)成了一項(xiàng)價(jià)值110億美元的石化交易。

Saudi Aramco Subsidiary Sees Profits Climb In Q2

Luberef, a subsidiary of Saudi Aramco, reported a 3.9% higher profit for the second quarter of the year despite a sizeable decline in revenues.

The company, which reported the figures in a statement for the Saudi stock exchange, attributed the increase in profit to tax adjustments that reduced its expenses and higher crack margins, Forbes reported.

The company reported $693.1 million in sales for the second quarter of the year, down from $879.7 million a year earlier. Profits stood at $121.3 million.

Luberef was listed last year, floating close to 30% of its capital or just over 50 million shares. The company raised $1.32 billion in its initial public offering, The National reported.

Aramco has a 70% interest in the company that produces base oils. The other 30% was bought by local investment bank Jadwa. Luberef has two production facilities in Saudi Arabia with a combined annual capacity of 1.3 million tons of base oils.

The parent company, which will be reporting second-quarter results next month, has seen its profits decline this year because of lower oil prices on international markets. Like the Big Oil majors, Aramco reported a lower net result for the first quarter, citing lower demand and lower prices.

The net result for the parent company in the first quarter was still impressive at $31.9 billion but lower than the $39.5 billion a year earlier. It was still higher than analyst expectations, Reuters noted at the time.

Aramco has been actively expanding its downstream operations, seeking to guarantee long-term demand for its crude oil production. The company recently inked a new refinery deal with Pakistan, finalized the purchase of a stake in an Asian petrochemical producer, and sealed an $11-billion petrochemical deal with TotalEnergies.
