据天然气新闻2021年4月27日伦敦报道，英国石油公司(BP) 4月27日预测，由于资产出售对其投资组合的影响，其今年上游油气产量将进一步下降。BP报告称，其第一季度上游油气产量已同比下降了14%。

　　BP在一份营业业绩的声明中说，由于资产出售以及在北海、墨西哥湾、特立尼达和多巴哥等地停产维护的共同作用，其第二季度常规业务和新创建的“天然气和低碳”部门的产量将低于第一季度。

　　BP去年的油气产量下降了10%，主要是由于美国页岩业务和阿拉斯加州的资产出售。

　　BP表示，由于资产出售、投资减少和资产下降，其第一季度上游油气日产量为222万桶油当量，这还不包括BP在俄罗斯石油公司中持有的近20%股份。

　　BP说，“由于受到正在进行的撤资计划的影响，我们预计BP今年全年上游油气产量将低于去年。然而，随着主要在天然气地区的大型项目的增加，潜在的油气产量将略高于去年，部分抵消了资本投资减少和低利润率天然气资产下降的影响。”

　　为应对全球油价暴跌和全球新冠肺炎疫情大流行，BP从去年第二季度开始大幅削减了21%的资本支出。自那以后，BP表示，由于转向低碳能源生产，预计到2030年前，其油气产量预计将下降40%。

　　BP forecasts further drop in oil, gas output this year as asset sales bite

　　BP on April 27 forecast a further drop in its upstream production this year due to the impact of asset sales on its portfolio, as it reported a 14% year-on-year fall in upstream oil and gas output for the first quarter.

　　In a results statement, the UK major said second-quarter production would be even lower than first-quarter production in both its conventional operations and newly created 'gas and low carbon' unit due to a combination of asset sales and maintenance, the latter in the North Sea, Gulf of Mexico as well as Trinidad and Tobago.

　　The downbeat production outlook follows a 10% drop in the company's 2020 output, mainly attributed to asset sales in its US shale business and Alaska. Upstream production in the first quarter hit 2.22 million b/d of oil equivalent, excluding the company's near-20% stake in Rosneft, due to the asset sales, reduced investment and asset decline, BP said.

　　"For full-year 2021 we expect reported upstream production to be lower than 2020 due to the impact of the ongoing divestment program. However, underlying production should be slightly higher than 2020 with the ramp-up of major projects, primarily in gas regions, partly offset by the impacts of reduced capital investment and decline in lower-margin gas assets," BP said, noting its startup of two gas projects in recent days, in Egypt and India.

　　BP responded to the global price crash and pandemic by slashing its capital expenditure by 21% last year, starting in the second quarter, and has since said it expects to see its oil and gas output fall by 40% by 2030 as it shifts toward lower-carbon energy production.
