據(jù)世界天然氣7月24日消息，西班牙天然氣公司Naturgy繼去年同期報告虧損之后，在2019年上半年實現(xiàn)盈利。

該公司報告的凈收入為5.92億歐元(合6.6億美元)，而去年同期虧損33億歐元(合36億美元)。

Naturgy在報告中稱，在天然氣和電力領(lǐng)域，上半年業(yè)績受到服務(wù)銷售改善的推動，在電力供應(yīng)領(lǐng)域?qū)崿F(xiàn)了強勁的利潤率復(fù)蘇，抵消了國際液化天然氣和歐洲發(fā)電領(lǐng)域更具挑戰(zhàn)性的局面。

報告稱，公司新的商業(yè)政策、為降低風(fēng)險做出的努力以及運營效率，也彌補了這一時期全球天然氣價格的下跌的情況。

該公司在報告中指出，在本報告所述期間，其天然氣銷售下降8.3% 至116.1太瓦時，主要是由于西班牙住宅和工業(yè)部門的銷售下降。

國際液化天然氣銷售下降21.1%至60.6 太瓦時，短期銷售下降49.6%。相反，該公司表示，長期銷售增長了56.5%。就其降低風(fēng)險的努力而言，Naturgy表示，今年已獲得約90%的液化天然氣產(chǎn)量。

今年上半年，Naturgy的凈銷售額達到116億歐元，比2018年上半年的121億歐元低4.4%。這是由于自由化企業(yè)較低的能源價格和銷量下降抵消了基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施活動的增長。

Naturgy swings to first-half profit

Spain’s Naturgy swung to profit during the first half of 2019, following a loss reported in the corresponding quarter last year.

The company reported a net income of €592 million ($660 million) which compares to a €3.3 billion loss ($3.6 billion) in the corresponding period last year.

In Gas & Power, the first-half results have been driven by improvement in services sales, which has experienced a strong margin recovery in power supply, more than offsetting a more challenging scenario in international LNG and Europe power generation, Naturgy said in its report.

The company’s new commercial policies and de-risking efforts, together with efficiencies, have also helped offset the global decline in gas prices during the period, the report says.

The company noted in its report that its gas sales declined by 8.3 percent to 116.1 TWh during the period under review, mainly due to lower sales in the Spanish residential and industrial segments.

Its international LNG sales slumped 21.1 percent to 60.6 TWh as short-term sales dropped by 49.6 percent. On the contrary, long-term sales have grown by 56.5 percent, the company said. In terms of its de-risking efforts, Naturgy said it has already secured approximately 90 percent of its LNG volumes for the year.

Naturgy’s net sales for the period reached €11.6 billion, 4.4 percent below the €12.1 billion reported in the first half of 2018. This was due to lower energy prices and volumes sold in the liberalized businesses that offset the growth in the infrastructure activity.
