據世界能源網2019年5月5日奧斯陸報道，挪威油氣巨頭 Equinor周五公布第一季度營業利潤小幅下滑，但優于預期，并稱其位于北海的 約翰斯維爾德魯普（Johan Sverdrup）大油田仍有望在今年11月份投產。

    扣除一次性項目的息稅前利潤(EBIT)從去年同期的44億美元降至今年第一季度的 42億美元，但高于路透社調查分析師預測的39億美元。 與競爭對手相比，由于Equinor煉油業務規模較小，因此，其業績略好于煉油利 潤大幅下降的BP、埃克森美孚公司和雪佛龍公司。

    Equinor的國內和國際油氣生產部門均好于預期，而其煉油、營銷和可再生能源 部門在很大程度上符合分析師的預期。 加拿大皇家銀行資本市場的Biraj Borkhataria表示，Equinor對歐洲的管道天然 氣銷售也積極驚喜，因為許多人預計天然氣現貨價格走軟將會導致其天然氣銷售 量下降。 Equinor第一季度平均油氣日產量為218萬桶，略高于調查預測的216萬桶。 Equinor大約40%的產量來自國際業務，包括美國、安哥拉和巴西。Equinor最 近把巴西列為其未來核心增長地區。

    Equinor Q1 Beats Forecast Norwegian oil and gas firm Equinor reported on Friday a small fall in quarterly operating profit, beating forecasts, and said its giant Johan Sverdrup oilfield in the North Sea remains on track to start production in November. 2019/5/8 www.sinopecnews.com.cn/news/content/2019-05/08/content_1746334.htm http://www.sinopecnews.com.cn/news/content/2019-05/08/content_1746334.htm 2/2 Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT), adjusted for one-off items, fell to $4.2 billion in the first quarter from $4.4 billion during the same period of 2018, higher than a forecast of $3.9 billion in a Reuters poll of analysts. The company, which has a smaller refining business than rivals, fared slightly better than BP, Exxon Mobil , and Chevron which saw sharp declines in profits partly due to lower refining margins. Equinor's domestic and international oil and gas production units both beat forecasts, while its refining, marketing and renewable energy unit was largely in line with analysts' expectations. Equinor's pipeline gas sales to Europe were also a positive surprise, given that many expected them to be lower due to weaker spot prices, RBC Capital Markets' Biraj Borkhataria said. Its quarterly oil and gas production was 2.18 million barrels of oil equivalents per day (boepd), slightly ahead of a 2.16 million forecast in the poll. About 40 percent of its production came from international operations, including in the United States, Angola and in Brazil which Equinor recently designated as a core growth area.
