中国石化新闻网讯 据美国彭博社新闻社2019年 1月9日多伦多报道,横跨加拿大管道公司(横加公司/TransCanada Corp.)将从其公司名字中去掉“Canada”。 这家总部位于卡尔加里的公司成立于1951年,当时名为横跨加拿大管道有限公司(TransCanada pipeline Ltd.),旨在从艾伯塔省向加拿大东部输送天然气。今年第二季度,横加公司将更名为TC能源公司(TC Energy)。多伦多和新证券交易所使用的TRP股票代码将保留。 TC 能源公司首席执行官Russ Girling周三在一份声明中表示:“TC Energy这个名字清楚地表达了我们的完整业务——管道、发电和储能业务——并反映出我们在欧洲大陆的业务持续增长,成为一家在加拿大、美国和墨西哥拥有重要资产和员工的企业。” 在墨西哥城的一个员工论坛上宣布了这一公司名称的变更。事实是,横加公司的收入越来越多地来自加拿大以外的地区。20世纪50年代,横加公司在加拿大修建了1.4万公里(8700英里)的主要天然气管道。彭博社汇编的数据显示,美国占横加公司 2017年总收入的60%左右,大约36%来自加拿大,其余来自墨西哥。 横加公司于2016年斥资102亿美元收购哥伦比亚管道集团大举进军美国市场。一年多前,横加公司通过在新公司名称上申请商标时发出了更名的信号。 据加拿大知识产权局称,这个管道建造商和运营商公布了TC Energy、TCE、Ventiv、Convergent和Northbow等5个名称。 受油价反弹的推动,横加公司的股价今年已上涨了8.3%。 李峻 编译自 彭博新闻社 原文如下: TransCanada drops ‘Canada’ from its name after 67 years TransCanada Corp. is taking the Canada out of its name. The Calgary-based firm that was created in 1951 as TransCanada Pipelines Ltd. to bring natural gas to Eastern Canada from Alberta, will change its name to TC Energy in the second quarter. The TRP ticker symbol used on the Toronto and New Stock Exchanges will remain. “The name TC Energy clearly articulates our complete business – pipelines, power generation and energy storage operations – and reflects our continued continental growth into an enterprise with critical assets and employees in Canada, the United States and Mexico,” CEO Russ Girling said in a statement Wednesday. Fittingly, the name change was announced at an employee forum in Mexico City. Truth is, TransCanada is increasingly getting more of its revenue from outside Canada, where it built the 14,000 km (8,700 mi) Mainline gas pipeline in the 1950s. The U.S. accounted for about 60% of TransCanada’s revenue in 2017, according to data compiled by Bloomberg. About 36% came from Canada and the rest from Mexico. TransCanada, which diversified heavily into the U.S. with its $10.2-billion Columbia Pipeline Group Inc. acquisition in 2016, signaled a name change more than a year ago by seeking trademarks on new company names that would excise its home country. The pipeline builder and operator published the names TC Energy, TCE, Ventiv, Convergent and Northbow, according to the Canadian Intellectual Property Office. TransCanada’s shares have jumped 8.3% this year, boosted by the rebound in oil prices.
