北海油田Apache公司160多名海上员工因薪酬谈判陷入僵局,在工会支持下可能于本月晚些时候发动罢工1。受影响员工包括电气专家、生产技术员和无线电操作员1。Apache公司向员工提出的薪酬方案为4%加薪1。
罢工涉及Forties和Beryl两处油田的关键平台1,其中Forties管道系统处理英国近三分之一的油气1,一旦停运将对英国燃油供应造成严重扰乱。Apache母公司APA去年实现税后利润14亿美元(合11亿英镑),年度收入达92亿美元1。目前英国柴油价格已创历史新高,周五公布的平均价格达每升2英镑1。对此,G7领导人宣布释放最多1亿桶应急柴油和原油储备以应对潜在供应中断1。
此前,Neo Next员工在获得超4000英镑的薪酬加薪方案后,于7月22日前夕取消了原定罢工1。
More than 160 offshore employees at Apache in the North Sea have secured union backing to potentially strike later this month following the breakdown of pay negotiations 1. The threatened action involves critical platforms at the Forties and Beryl oil fields 1, and could cripple the Forties pipeline system, which handles nearly a third of the UK's oil and gas supply 1. The workers, including electrical specialists, production technicians, and radio operators, are responding to Apache's offer of a 4 percent pay increase 1.
A strike at these facilities would severely disrupt fuel supplies across Britain 1. This comes as diesel prices have already reached record levels, averaging 2 pounds per liter as of Friday 1. In response to energy market pressures, Group of Seven leaders announced plans to release up to 100 million barrels of emergency diesel and crude oil reserves 1.
