据离岸工程网站8月4日消息 康菲石油周四表示，预计本季度减产量约为上季度减产量的一半，并将在9月底前恢复大部分产量。此前，由于油价暴跌41%，该公司4月份减产约三分之一。
该公司在6月早些时候恢复了部分被削减的产量，因为原油价格恢复了一些历史性的损失，当时为遏制冠状病毒的传播而实施的封锁措施削弱了燃料需求。
在截至6月30日的第二季度，除利比亚外，康菲石油的总产量下降了24%。
这家总部位于休斯敦的公司公布调整后每股亏损92美分，远高于分析师平均预期的58美分。其股价下跌5.7%，同时原油价格也下跌，因为激增的冠状病毒感染威胁到燃料需求的恢复。
不过，该公司首席执行官兰斯相信，公司拥有约130亿美元的流动性，完全有能力从原油价格不可避免的复苏中获益。
“我们可以更好地抵御价格波动，选择采取减产等措施，并进行高价值、低成本的补强交易。”
官兰斯补充称，除了其他因素外，公司还考虑可能放缓的复苏速度，以决定其资本需求。
由于美国轻质原油和布伦特原油的平均价格也下跌了50%以上，康菲石油第二季度的每桶收益减少了一半以上。
该公司在完成澳大利亚西部资产剥离后实现了5.94亿美元的收益，而其在塞诺夫斯能源公司的股份实现了5.51亿美元的未实现收益。
BP、雪佛龙和埃克森美孚预计也将出现罕见的季度亏损，而荷兰皇家壳牌则依靠蓬勃发展的贸易业务勉强避免了这一损失。

Germany Gov't to Fund Offshore Wind-to-Green Hydrogen Project
The German Federal Ministry of Economic Affairs and Energy has sent a funding confirmation to partners working on the WESTKüSTE 100 green hydrogen project.
The WESTKüSTE 100 project, which will produce green hydrogen via electricity generated by offshore wind turbines, will be developed by EDF Germany, Holcim Germany, OGE, ?rsted, Raffinerie Heide, Stadtwerke Heide, and thyssenkrupp Industrial Solutions as well as the Heide region development agency and Westküste University of Applied Sciences.
The project, described as the first large-scale hydrogen project in Germany within the Reallabor (real-world laboratory) framework, can now enter its first phase.
A newly founded joint venture, "H2 Westküste GmbH", consisting of EDF Germany, ?rsted, and the Heide refinery, intends to build a 30-megawatt electrolyzer.
This can produce green hydrogen from offshore wind energy and provide information on the operation, maintenance, control, and grid services of the plant.
Furthermore, pipeline transportation of hydrogen and the use of hydrogen in existing and new infrastructure around Heide will be tested. The consortium will also initiate the work to develop the vision of a large-scale sector coupling including a 700MW electrolyzer system into a concrete project.
Martin Neubert, Executive Vice President and CEO, ?rsted Offshore: "The funding from the German Federal Ministry for Economíc Affairs and Energy to the Westküste 100 project is a significant step forward for our hydrogen business. Westküste 100 is our third hydrogen project - and the first one in Germany - found eligible for public funding, and we're very excited about the prospects of supporting heavy industries and heavy transport with clean alternatives based on renewable hydrogen."
Producing hydrogen has traditionally been associated with high carbon emissions, but by using renewable electricity, e.g. from an offshore wind farm, the process of producing hydrogen from water (electrolysis) can be completely decarbonized. Energy-intensive industries and the transportation sector will have the opportunity to reduce their carbon intensity by using renewable hydrogen, the wind farm developer has explained.
