据阿纳多卢新闻4月18日消息称,能源巨头荷兰皇家壳牌周四宣布,作为2021年能源转型战略的一部分,该公司计划以每年约5%的速度逐步减少油气储层的产量。
该声明反映了该公司的长期目标,即到2050年成为净零排放能源企业,与社会朝着《巴黎协定》将全球平均气温上升限制在1.5摄氏度的目标迈进的步伐一致。
壳牌在报告中说:“我们90%以上的排放来自我们销售的燃料和其他能源产品的使用,所以我们也必须与我们的客户合作,在使用这些能源时减少他们的排放。这意味着为他们提供他们需要的低碳产品和服务,如可再生电力、生物燃料、氢、碳捕获和储存以及基于自然的抵消。”
为了实现这一目标,壳牌计划限制其在上游领域的投资,预计到2030年,包括撤资在内的石油生产投资每年将逐渐减少约1-2%。相反,该公司计划维持在转型业务上的投资。
为了实现这一目标,该公司计划将年度勘探支出从2015年的22亿美元左右减少到2021年至2025年的15亿美元左右。
它还预计,到2030年,天然气在其碳氢化合物生产中的份额将保持在55%。

Shell plans 5% annual decline in oil output
Energy giant Royal Dutch Shell aims to incrementally reduce production from oil and gas reservoirs at a rate of around 5% per year across the oil and gas industry as part of its 2021 energy transition strategy, the company announced on Thursday.
The announcement reflects the company’s long-term goal to become a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050, in step with society’s progress towards the Paris Agreement goal of limiting the increase in the average global temperature to 1.5°C.
"More than 90% of our emissions come from the use of the fuels and other energy products we sell, so we must also work with our customers to reduce their emissions when that energy is used. That means offering them the low-carbon products and services they need such as renewable electricity, biofuels, hydrogen, carbon capture and storage and nature-based offsets," Shell said in the report.
In line with this purpose, Shell plans to limit its investments in the upstream sector and expects a gradual decline of about 1-2% a year in oil production investments through to 2030, including divestments. Instead, the company plans to maintain its investments in its transition businesses.
To reach this aim, the company plans to reduce annual spending on exploration from around $2.2 billion in 2015 to around $1.5 billion between 2021 and 2025.
It also expects to keep the share of gas in its hydrocarbon production at 55% by 2030.
