據(jù)離岸工程網(wǎng)站8月6日消息 日本最大的石油和天然氣公司Inpex公司周四表示,由于冠狀病毒大流行導(dǎo)致價(jià)格暴跌,該公司在澳大利亞的液化天然氣項(xiàng)目的費(fèi)用為1400億日元(13.3億美元)。
這些損失使能源公司在澳大利亞液化天然氣項(xiàng)目上的費(fèi)用超過(guò)130億美元,這些費(fèi)用是由于流感大流行導(dǎo)致價(jià)格暴跌而導(dǎo)致。澳大利亞是全球最大的液化天然氣出口國(guó)之一。
殼牌和BP等石油和天然氣巨頭已減記了數(shù)百億美元在世界其他地方的油氣資產(chǎn),因?yàn)榇蠓秶姆怄i減少了旅行和工業(yè)活動(dòng),壓垮了對(duì)燃料的需求。
Inpex減記的大部分資產(chǎn)約為12億美元,是由殼牌在澳大利亞西北部海域運(yùn)營(yíng)的Prelude浮式液化天然氣項(xiàng)目的股份。
該公司還宣布對(duì)美國(guó)石油項(xiàng)目收費(fèi)5億美元,同時(shí)公布上半年盈利。
Inpex沒(méi)有對(duì)其在澳大利亞運(yùn)營(yíng)的巨型Ichthys項(xiàng)目進(jìn)行任何減記。

Inpex Books $1.3B Writedown on Australian LNG assets, Omitting Ichthys
Japan's biggest oil and gas company, Inpex Corp, booked charges of 140 billion yen ($1.33 billion) on its liquefied natural gas (LNG) projects in Australia, it said on Thursday, due to a slump in prices caused by the coronavirus pandemic.
The losses bring to more than $13 billion the charges on Australian LNG projects taken by energy companies due to the collapse in prices from the pandemic. Australia is one of the world's largest exporters of LNG.
Oil and gas majors such as Shell and BP have written down tens of billions of dollars on oil and gas assets elsewhere in the world as pandemic lockdowns have cut travel and industrial activity, crushing demand for fuels.
Most of Inpex's writedown, about $1.2 billion, was on its stake in the Prelude floating LNG project operated by Shell off northwestern Australia.
It also announced charges of $500 million on U.S. oil projects, while releasing first-half earnings.
Inpex did not book any writedowns on the giant Ichthys project that it operates in Australia.
In July, France's Total, which holds a stake in Ichthys and the Gladstone LNG project operated by Santos, said it would take a charge of $800 million on its Australian LNG assets, without giving details.
For the six months through June, Inpex said it had a loss of 121 billion yen, versus a profit of around 69 billion in the previous period. The company forecasts a full-year loss of 136 billion yen.
Asian spot prices of LNG have nearly halved this year after recovering slightly from lows in June, while oil prices rose for a fourth straight month in July from the depths of April, when billions of people were in lockdown worldwide.
Many countries are now experiencing a second wave of infections.
