???? 據4月7日彭博社報道，荷蘭皇家殼牌公司表示，預計該公司將自疫情爆發以來首次從石油開采中獲利。

????周三，殼牌表示在2021年第一季度，主要負責石油勘探和生產的上游部門獲得了當前大宗商品價格環境的優勢。

????盡管天然氣、煉油和化工行業的盈利幫助殼牌去年實現了總體盈利，但由于疫情導致能源價格暴跌，其核心業務持續虧損。上游行業恢復盈利是該行業正從歷史低谷中復蘇的另一個信號。

????殼牌表示，煉油和燃料市場部門的業績與第四季度相比略有改善，該部門在2020年的大部分時間都是盈利的。

????另外，德克薩斯州的冬季暴風雪導致該州基礎設施癱瘓，大片油氣田關閉，將對該公司約2億美元的收入產生不利影響。

????Shell to Make First Profit From Oil Output Since Pandemic Began

????Royal Dutch Shell Plc said it expects to make the first profit from pumping oil since the start of the pandemic.

????In the first quarter of 2021, Shell’s upstream unit, which largely handles the exploration and production of oil, captured “the upside from the current commodity price environment," the company said on Wednesday.

????While earnings from natural gas, refining and chemicals helped Shell to post an overall profit last year, its core business reported consistent losses as energy prices plunged due to Covid-19. The return to profit upstream is another signal that the industry is recovering from the historic slump.

????Performance at the division that refines and markets fuels, which was profitable for most of 2020, improved slightly compared to the fourth quarter, Shell said.

????The severe winter storms in Texas, which crippled the state’s infrastructure and shut down a swath of oil and gas fields, will have an adverse impact on earnings of about $200 million, Shell said.
