據(jù)能源世界網(wǎng)8月5日新德里報(bào)道，先鋒自然資源公司（Pioneer Natural Resources Co）周二公布了季度虧損，低于預(yù)期，由于美國頁巖油生產(chǎn)商控制成本以緩解冠狀病毒引起的油價(jià)暴跌的影響。

該公司表示，由于油氣價(jià)格下跌55.2％，至每桶油當(dāng)量17.61美元，因此其削減了超過三分之一的成本和支出。

第二季度，二疊紀(jì)盆地生產(chǎn)商的日均銷售量從一年前的334,167桶上升到374,563桶石油當(dāng)量。

在5月份削減產(chǎn)量后，先鋒公司還將其全年產(chǎn)量預(yù)測提高到了35.6萬—37.1萬桶油當(dāng)量，并加入了越來越多的美國恢復(fù)部分封閉鉆探的生產(chǎn)商名單。

盡管如此，該公司仍預(yù)計(jì)在目前的商品價(jià)格環(huán)境下，每天仍將減少約6,000桶石油的產(chǎn)量。 先鋒在第二季度減少了約7,000桶/天的凈產(chǎn)量。

競爭對手卡隆石油公司(Callon PetroleumCo.)還表示，該公司在第二季度關(guān)閉的最小生產(chǎn)量已恢復(fù)生產(chǎn)。

根據(jù)Refinitiv IBES的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，先鋒公司公布的調(diào)整后季度虧損為每股32美分，低于分析師預(yù)期的35美分，而卡隆則公布了驚人的利潤。

與此同時(shí)，德文能源公司(DevonEnergyCorp)也公布了低于預(yù)期的虧損，頁巖生產(chǎn)商在中期將其今年勘探和生產(chǎn)支出計(jì)劃削減了2500萬美元，降至9.5億—10億美元之間。

該公司將其石油日產(chǎn)量預(yù)測上調(diào)至14.8至15.2萬桶之間

Pioneer Natural Resources posts smaller-than-expected loss on cost cuts

Pioneer Natural Resources Co on Tuesday posted a quarterly loss that was smaller than estimates, as the U.S shale producer reined in costs to cushion a blow from the coronavirus-induced plunge in oil prices.

The company said it cut costs and expenses by more than a third as prices for its oil and gas tumbled 55.2% to $17.61 per barrel of oil equivalent.

The Permian basin producer's average sales volume rose to 374,563 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd) in the second quarter, from 334,167 boepd a year earlier.

Pioneer also raised its full-year production forecast to between 356,000 boepd and 371,000 boepd after cutting it in May, joining an expanding list of U.S. producers restoring some of their shut-in drilling.

Still, the company expects about 6,000 barrels of oil per day (bopd) production to remain curtailed in the current commodity price environment. Pioneer had reduced about 7,000 bopd of net production during the second quarter.

Rival Callon Petroleum Co also said minimal production volume shut-ins by the company during the second quarter have been returned to production.

Pioneer posted an adjusted quarterly loss of 32 cents per share, smaller than analysts' estimate of 35 cents, according to Refinitiv IBES, while Callon reported a surprise profit.

Meanwhile, Devon Energy Corp also posted a smaller-than-expected loss, and the shale producer cut its 2020 exploration and production spending program by $25 million at mid-point to between $950 million and $1 billion.

The company raised its oil production forecast to between 148,000 bpd and 152,000 bpd.
