Saudi Arabian oil giant Aramco on Sunday reported a record annual net profit of $161.1 billion for 2022, up 46% from the year earlier, on higher energy prices, increased volumes sold and improved margins for refined products.
据CNN报道，沙特阿拉伯的石油巨头沙特阿美公司（以下简称：沙特阿美）于上周日公布，由于能源价格上涨、销量增长和精炼产品利润率的提高，该公司2022年的年度净利润达到创纪录的1611 亿美元，同比增长 46%。
The profits follow similar reports in February from international peers BP, Shell, Exxon Mobil and Chevron which have mostly posted record profits for last year.
此前，沙特阿美的同行英国石油、壳牌、埃克森美孚和雪佛龙在今年2月份也发布了类似的报告，这些公司大多公布了2022年创纪录的利润。
Oil prices swung wildly in 2022, climbing on geopolitical worries amid the war in Ukraine, then sliding on weaker demand from top importer China and worries of an economic contraction.
2022年，油价在乌克兰战争期间因地缘政治担忧而出现攀升，此外，因最大石油进口国中国的需求疲软及对经济收缩的担忧而下滑。
“Given that we anticipate oil and gas will remain essential for the foreseeable future, the risks of underinvestment in our industry are real – including contributing to higher energy prices,” Aramco’s chief executive Amin Nasser said in the results statement.
沙特阿美首席执行长阿明·纳赛尔在业绩报告中表示，“鉴于我们预计石油和天然气在可预见的未来仍将是必不可少的，行业投资不足的风险是真实存在的-包括对能源价格的上涨有所贡献。”
To address those challenges, the company is not only focused on expanding oil, gas and chemicals production, but also investing in new lower-carbon technologies with potential to achieve additional emission reductions, Nasser said.
纳赛尔表示，为了应对这些挑战，沙特阿美不仅专注于扩大石油、天然气和化学品的生产，还投资于具有实现额外减排潜力的新的低碳技术。
Aramco’s capital expenditure rose 18% to $37.6 billion in 2022 and the company said it expects this year’s spending to be around $45.0 billion to $55.0 billion including external investments.
2022年，沙特阿美的资本支出增长18%至376亿美元。此外，该公司还表示，预计2023年的支出将在450亿至550亿美元左右，包括外部投资。
