二季度切萨皮克能源转为盈利，计划削减四台钻机

据美联社纽约8月3日消息，受能源产量增加的刺激，今年二季度切萨皮克能源公司转化盈利，同时该公司表示今年全年的产量将继续增长。

不过这家天然气公司计划在年底前削减四台钻机，因为公司继续抑制支出。

这家总部设在俄克拉荷马城的公司二季度实现盈利4.7亿美元，或每股47美分，而去年同期是亏损的。二季度公司不包括临时性收益的调整后盈利为每股18美分。

二季度公司的营业收入同比增加41%达到22.8亿美元，调整后的营业收入为12.8亿美元。

切萨皮克能源公司当前运营着18台钻机，预计在今年底前将削减至14台。能源价格的持续下跌已经促使切萨皮克能源公司和其同行们削减钻机和成本。
