英国石油公司（BP）公布其第三季度基础重置成本利润大幅攀升至84.6亿美元，远高于去年同期的22亿美元 1。这一成绩超出了分析师此前预期的73.3亿美元，主要得益于“显著更高的已实现炼油利润率”以及“显著更高的天然气和营销交易结果” 1。尽管全球油价低于2022年的峰值水平，但中东冲突导致的海湾地区和俄罗斯炼厂严重中断，推高了柴油等燃料的终端价格，使得英国、欧洲和美国的泵送价格飙升至历史高点 1。
面对由此产生的额外现金流，BP表示计划全额处理2010年“深海地平线”漏油事故的剩余负债，目前该负债余额为59.4亿美元 1。该公司首席执行官警告称能源市场的波动将持续存在，并预计将于12月15日在CEO Meg O’Neill领导下发布首个重大战略更新 1。与此同时，气候活动家批评BP在削减可再生能源投资的同时赚取巨额利润 1。
BP reported a dramatic increase in third-quarter underlying replacement cost profit, reaching $8.46 billion compared with $2.2 billion a year earlier 1. This significant rise exceeded analyst expectations of $7.33 billion and was primarily driven by substantially higher realized refining margins alongside improved natural gas and marketing trading results 1. Although global oil prices remain below their 2022 peaks, severe disruptions at refineries in the Gulf region and Russia have pushed pump prices for fuels such as diesel in the UK, Europe, and the US to historic highs 1.
The energy major announced plans to use this surplus cash flow to fully settle the remaining liabilities from the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill, which currently stand at $5.94 billion 1. Climate activists have criticized BP for generating these substantial profits while simultaneously cutting investment in renewable energy sources 1. Looking ahead, BP is scheduled to release its first major strategic update on December 15 under the leadership of CEO Meg O’Neill 1.
