石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据道琼斯巴黎2月9日消息，得益于最近有力的成本削减举措、原油产量上升以及油价已反弹至每桶50美元上方，法国石油巨头道达尔公布了好于预期的去年第四季度利润。
道达尔表示，公司对原油市场前景抱有充分信心，计划在未来18个月推出10个新项目。不过，考虑到油价可能剧烈波动，管理层打算控制总体资本开支。
截至2016年12月底的三个月，道达尔实现净利润5.48亿美元，上年同期净亏损16.3亿美元。第四季度营业收入增长12%，至422.8亿美元。
剔除库存变化和其他非经常性项目带来的影响，第四季度调整后利润为24.1亿美元，较上年同期的20.8亿美元增长16%。此前接受FactSet调查的分析师给出的预期中值为22.6亿美元。
道达尔表示，公司已将2016年产量上调4.5%，至245万油当量桶/日。该公司2015年原油产量增长14%。
该公司宣布派发每股2.45欧元（约合2.62美元）的股息，较上年有所提高。

Total Swung to Fourth-Quarter Net Profit, Plans New Projects
By Inti Landauro
PARIS–French oil major Total SA (TOT) notched up better-than-expected fourth-quarter profit, reaping the benefit of heavy recent cost cuts, higher oil output, and the rebound in crude prices to above $50 a barrel.
The company said it is sufficiently confident about the outlook for the oil market to plan as many as 10 new projects within the next 18 months even though management intends to keep a lid on overall capital expenditure amid likely volatile crude prices.
Total posted net profit of $548 million in the three months to end-December, a swing from a net loss of $1.63 billion in the same period a year earlier, on a 12% jump in revenue to $42.28 billion.
When adjusted to exclude the effect of changes in inventories and other nonrecurring items, profit rose to 16% to $2.41 billion from $2.08 billion, ahead of the average analysts’ forecast of $2.26 billion, the median estimate according to data provider FactSet.
Total said it raised output by 4.5% to 2.45 million barrels of oil equivalent a day in 2016 after a 14% increase in 2015.
The company said it declared a higher dividend of 2.45 euros ($2.62) a share.
