据Oil&GasJournal网站2月25日休斯敦报道,加拿大能源公司“为了在低油价环境中维持稳定的资产负债表,并进一步加强流动性”,将其之前公布的2015年资本投资额进一步削减7亿美元,最终为20亿-22亿美元。
该公司当前资本支出计划是在西德克萨斯中质原油价格50美元/桶以及纽约商业交易所天然气价格3美元/百万英热单位的假设基础上作出的,较之前的70美元/桶与4美元/百万英热单位时有所下降。
相对原来25亿-27亿美元的总现金流量,加拿大能源公司目前期望的数字为14亿-16亿美元。该公司2014年公布的现金流同比增加14%,达29亿美元。
该公司仍有意通过向韦列先中游公司剥离蒙特尼中游基础设施以及向恩贝儿资源公司出售某些克利尔沃特资产获得8亿美元纯收入的预期现金流,为其投资计划与股息分配全额供资。

Encana trims additional $700 million from 2015 capital budget
Encana Corp. is reducing its previously reported capital investment for 2015 by $700 million to $2-2.2 billion “to maintain a solid balance sheet and help strengthen liquidity through a low price environment.”
The company’s capital spending program is now based on assumptions of $50/bbl West Texas Intermediate prices and $3/MMbtu natural gas prices on the New York Mercantile Exchange, down from the previous assumptions of $70/bbl and $4/MMbtu, respectively.
Encana now expects total cash flow of $1.4-1.6 billion vs. $2.5-2.7 billion. The company in 2014 reported a 14% increase in year-over-year cash flow to $2.9 billion.
The company still intends to fully fund its capital program and dividend with anticipated cash flow combined with net proceeds of $800 million from the divestitures of Montney midstream infrastructure to Veresen Midstream LP, and certain Clearwater assets to Ember Resources Inc. |
