4月19日消息（路透社）— Seventy Seven Energy油田服务公司称：公司计划在5月26日或之前根据破产法第11章申请破产保护。在当前油价长期持续下跌的情况下，该公司是最新申请破产保护的公司。
Chesapeake Energy公司曾是Seventy Seven Energy的母公司，Seventy Seven Energy于2014年从母公司中分离出来。Seventy Seven Energy称公司已经和某些贷款方达成协议，这些贷款方可以使Seventy Seven Energy11亿元的债务转变成股权。Seventy Seven Energy的法律顾问为Baker Botts律师事务所，财政顾问为Lazard Freres & Co公司，公司重组顾问为Alvarez & Marsal公司。
自2014年中期起，油价降幅大于60%，由此导致约50家北美油气生厂商申请破产保护。
低迷的油价已经迫使石油生产商大幅缩减开支，降低对类似于Seventy Seven Energy公司所提供的油田服务的需求。石油圈原创www.oilsns.com
上周一，Chesapeake Energy称其贷款方虽然对公司的资金状况表示担忧，但允许公司贷款额达到40亿美元，这令公司投资人惊讶不已。

April 19 (Reuters) – Oilfield services company Seventy Seven Energy Inc said it intended to file for a prepackaged Chapter 11 bankruptcy on or before May 26, the latest energy company to seek bankruptcy protection amid a prolonged oil price slump.
The company, which was spun off from Chesapeake Energy Corp in 2014, said it had entered into a restructuring agreement with certain lenders that would allow it to convert about $1.1 billion of its debt into equity.
A more than 60 percent fall in global oil prices since mid-2014 has forced about 50 North American oil and gas producers to seek bankruptcy protection.
Weak oil prices have also prompted oil producers to severely curtail spending, weighing on demand for the oilfield services provided by companies such as Seventy Seven Energy.
Chesapeake Energy Corp, the company’s former parent, surprised investors last Monday, when it said lenders had allowed it to keep its $4 billion borrowing base, despite concerns about its liquidity position.
Baker Botts LLP is Seventy Seven Energy’s legal counsel and Lazard Freres & Co LLC is the financial adviser. Alvarez & Marsal is the company’s restructuring adviser.
