據(jù)美國(guó)鉆井網(wǎng)站報(bào)道，惠譽(yù)解決方案國(guó)家風(fēng)險(xiǎn)與行業(yè)研究公司(Fitch Solutions Country Risk&Industry research)的分析師們?nèi)涨霸诎l(fā)給美國(guó)鉆井網(wǎng)站Rigzone的一份新報(bào)告中透露了他們2022年全球油氣行業(yè)的關(guān)鍵主題。  

一個(gè)這樣的主題是預(yù)測(cè)明年上半年石油市場(chǎng)將從供應(yīng)不足轉(zhuǎn)向供應(yīng)過(guò)剩?；葑u(yù)解決方案分析師們認(rèn)為，這一變化將導(dǎo)致油價(jià)走低，并可能導(dǎo)致歐佩克+和非歐佩克成員國(guó)之間的產(chǎn)量分化。 

分析師們?cè)趫?bào)告中表示：“盡管今年年底出現(xiàn)了奧密克戎毒株，但歐佩克+已證實(shí)，他們將繼續(xù)每月日增40萬(wàn)桶原油產(chǎn)量?！?/p>

惠譽(yù)解決方案分析師們?cè)趫?bào)告中補(bǔ)充稱：“盡管有人擔(dān)心需求增長(zhǎng)正在放緩，而奧密克戎毒株的影響仍不清楚，但這個(gè)主題再加上美國(guó)將在2022年初協(xié)調(diào)釋放戰(zhàn)略石油儲(chǔ)備的原油，人們屆時(shí)將看到更多的石油供應(yīng)進(jìn)入市場(chǎng)?！?/p>

惠譽(yù)解決方案分析師們指出，另一個(gè)主題是，預(yù)計(jì)美國(guó)在2022年的油氣產(chǎn)量將大幅攀升，原油、天然氣廠液體和其他液體日產(chǎn)量將達(dá)到145萬(wàn)桶或同比增長(zhǎng)8.5%。 

分析師們?cè)趫?bào)告中表示：“盡管頁(yè)巖行業(yè)的獨(dú)立上市公司對(duì)大幅增加投資持保留態(tài)度，但油氣產(chǎn)量還是走高了?！?/p>

相反，美國(guó)頁(yè)巖行業(yè)的大多數(shù)上市公司可能會(huì)通過(guò)分紅和股票回購(gòu)來(lái)繼續(xù)關(guān)注股東的回報(bào)，而不是更大幅度的增加產(chǎn)量。 私營(yíng)企業(yè)、技術(shù)進(jìn)步和持續(xù)的鉆井效率將推動(dòng)更高的增長(zhǎng)。

惠譽(yù)解決方案分析師們繼續(xù)說(shuō)道：“盡管在2021年，已開(kāi)鉆但未完鉆井的數(shù)量有所下降，這可能針對(duì)的是產(chǎn)量最好和最高的地區(qū)，但我們預(yù)計(jì)，由于新探區(qū)的鉆井活動(dòng)增加，效率的提高和已提高的初始產(chǎn)量將持續(xù)下去，而不是下降?！?/p>

投資將遠(yuǎn)離上游 亞洲大國(guó)下游投資增加

惠譽(yù)解決方案分析師們?cè)谛聢?bào)告還預(yù)測(cè)，全球油氣投資將從上游向低碳領(lǐng)域努力傾斜。  

報(bào)告說(shuō)，“越來(lái)越多的上市公司將加大減少運(yùn)營(yíng)對(duì)氣候影響的承諾，這將使資本從傳統(tǒng)的上游投資轉(zhuǎn)向低碳投資。”

分析師們還指出，鑒于美國(guó)的氣候承諾、需求停滯以及老舊煉油廠利潤(rùn)率前景不佳，長(zhǎng)期以來(lái)認(rèn)為亞洲大國(guó)將在2022年成為下游最大煉油國(guó)的觀點(diǎn)似乎已成定勢(shì)。  

惠譽(yù)解決方案分析師們表示：“美國(guó)為遏制氣候變化影響而加大的努力，將進(jìn)一步增加對(duì)煉油廠的監(jiān)管負(fù)擔(dān)。” 

他們補(bǔ)充稱：“對(duì)于煉油設(shè)備不太復(fù)雜的老煉油廠來(lái)說(shuō)，由于合規(guī)成本預(yù)計(jì)將增加，這將迫使他們煉油利潤(rùn)率下降。”

分析師們繼續(xù)說(shuō)道，“另一方面，亞洲大國(guó)將從不斷增長(zhǎng)的新生煉油能力以及政府在轉(zhuǎn)型環(huán)境法規(guī)以應(yīng)對(duì)氣候變化方面更加支持中獲益?！?/p>

伍德麥肯茲全球上游展望

在近日發(fā)給美國(guó)鉆井網(wǎng)站的另一份聲明中，伍德麥肯茲上游研究副總裁弗雷澤·麥凱表示，全球上游行業(yè)將在2022年面臨“不確定性峰值”，現(xiàn)金流將達(dá)到創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄水平，但新油氣項(xiàng)目的審查過(guò)程將越來(lái)越嚴(yán)格。  

麥凱在聲明中表示，“在布倫特原油價(jià)格為每桶70美元左右的情況下，油氣現(xiàn)金流將接近歷史最高水平。 如果油價(jià)為每桶80美元，油氣現(xiàn)金流在稅后、資本支出后、融資前和股息基礎(chǔ)上將飆升至1萬(wàn)億美元。”

“盡管如此，對(duì)許多利益相關(guān)者、甚至一些首席執(zhí)行官來(lái)說(shuō)，這個(gè)行業(yè)的風(fēng)險(xiǎn)大于其優(yōu)勢(shì)。 這種緊張局勢(shì)將界定2022年?！?/p>

麥凱指出，在聯(lián)合國(guó)氣候變化框架公約第26屆締約方會(huì)議之前，為石油和天然氣融資變得越來(lái)越困難，并補(bǔ)充說(shuō)，明年的壓力將會(huì)越來(lái)越大。 

麥凱說(shuō)，“管理超過(guò)130萬(wàn)億美元資產(chǎn)的金融機(jī)構(gòu)已加入承諾凈零排放的格拉斯哥金融聯(lián)盟。我們將拭目以待，投資者的資金池將萎縮，借貸成本將上升，石油項(xiàng)目融資將變得更加困難。”

麥凱補(bǔ)充道，“但放貸將不會(huì)立即枯竭，而天然氣——尤其是與煤炭退役或CCS相關(guān)的天然氣——將幸免于最壞的情況。

Key Oil and Gas Themes for 2022|

Analysts at Fitch Solutions Country Risk & Industry Research have revealed their “key” oil and gas themes for 2022 in a new report sent to Rigzone on Monday.

One such theme is a forecast that oil markets will shift from undersupply to oversupply in the first half of next year. The change should lead to lower oil prices and a potential divergence in production between OPEC+ and non-OPEC members, according to Fitch Solutions analysts.

“Despite the emergence of the Omicron variant in late 2021, OPEC+ have confirmed they will continue with a monthly production increase of 400,000 barrels per day,” the analysts stated in the report.

“This, combined with the coordinated release of strategic petroleum reserves orchestrated by the U.S. over the early months of 2022, will see increased supply come onto the market despite concerns that demand growth is slowing and with the impact of Omicron still unclear,” the analysts added in the report.

Another theme is that U.S. output is expected to climb “substantially” in 2022 with crude, NGPL and other liquids production posting gains of 1.45 million barrels per day, or 8.5 percent year on year, Fitch Solutions analysts outlined.

“The move higher comes despite reticence from publicly-listed independents in the shale patch to substantially raise investment,” the analysts stated in the report.

“Instead, most publicly traded firms in the U.S. shale patch are likely to continue favoring shareholder returns through dividends and share buybacks over more expansive production growth. Higher growth will be fueled by private firms, technology improvements and sustained drilling efficiency,” the analysts added.

“Despite the drawdown in drilled but uncompleted wells across 2021, which likely targeted the best and highest output areas, we expect efficiency gains and increased initial production rates to persist rather than decline as new acreage is drilled,” they continued.

Investment to Tilt Away from Upstream, China Downstream Rise

The report also projects that oil and gas investment will tilt away from upstream to low carbon efforts.

“Increasingly, publicly-listed firms will ramp up commitments to reduce climate impacts from operations. This will divert capital from traditional upstream investments to low carbon investments,” Fitch Solutions analysts said.

The analysts also noted that the long-held view of the biggest country in Asia’s emergence as the top downstream refiner looks poised to take place in 2022, in light of U.S. climate commitments, stagnating demand and the poor outlook for refinery margins for older facilities.

“Increased efforts in the U.S. to stem the impacts of climate change will further increase the regulatory burden on refineries,” the analysts said.

“In the case of older facilities with less complex refining slates, it will force margins lower as the cost of compliance is expected to increase,” they added.

“The biggest country in Asia, on the other hand, will benefit from the younger age of refining capacity and a more supportive government hand in transitioning environmental regulations to combat climate change,” the analysts continued.

Wood Mackenzie Global Upstream Outlook

In a separate statement sent to Rigzone on Monday, Wood Mackenzie’s vice president of upstream research, Fraser McKay, said the upstream sector is going into 2022 facing “peak uncertainty”, with record cash flows but increasing scrutiny.

“At a Brent price of around $70 per barrel, oil and gas cash flows will be at near-record levels. At $80 per barrel, it would soar towards $1 trillion (on a post-tax, post-capex, pre-financing and dividends basis),” McKay said in the statement.

“Despite this, for many stakeholders and even some chief executives, the sector’s risks outweigh its upsides. This tension will define 2022,” McKay added in the statement.

McKay noted that financing oil and gas was getting harder before COP26 and added that the pressure will ratchet up next year.

“Institutions with over $130 trillion of capital under management have joined the Glasgow Financial Alliance for Net Zero. Watch for the pool of backers to shrink, borrowing costs to increase and project financing for oil to get harder,” he said.

“But lending will not dry up immediately. And gas – especially where aligned with coal retirement or CCS – will be spared the worst,” McKay added.
