???? 據(jù)阿拉伯貿(mào)易3月29日新聞消息稱，彭博社援引知情人士消息稱，國有的科威特石油公司計(jì)劃在未來五年內(nèi)借入200億美元，以彌補(bǔ)預(yù)期的資金缺口。
????這位不愿透露姓名的人士表示，這家科威特石油巨頭將需要這筆錢來維持該國的原油生產(chǎn)水平。
????該報(bào)告稱，該借款計(jì)劃突顯出，隨著冠狀病毒大流行蔓延和能源需求大幅下降，去年原油價(jià)格下跌對波斯灣國家的影響非常嚴(yán)重。
????該公司幾乎將其原油銷售的所有收入都匯出給歐佩克成員國的政府。該公司表示，隨后將以分期償還的方式償還資本支出，主要用于上游業(yè)務(wù)和油田投資。
????據(jù)彭博社報(bào)道，該公司可能在未來五年內(nèi)面臨60億韓元(200億美元)的赤字，但它希望通過提高效率來縮小缺口。
????KPC計(jì)劃通過發(fā)行債券(包括在國際市場上)來彌補(bǔ)這一缺口。該報(bào)道援引消息人士稱，該情況將每六個(gè)月進(jìn)行一次審查，以評估公司的需求和借貸成本。
????這個(gè)歐佩克成員國的財(cái)政狀況和幾乎所有主要石油生產(chǎn)國的財(cái)政狀況一樣，在去年病毒使世界各地的飛機(jī)停飛和企業(yè)關(guān)閉時(shí)都受到了打擊。
????此后，KPC 已達(dá)成初步協(xié)議，將在15年內(nèi)償還這筆款項(xiàng)。這位知情人士還說，這有所幫助，但不能解決該公司的問題。

????Kuwait Petroleum eyes $20bn in funding over next 5 years
????State-owned Kuwait Petroleum Corporation plans to borrow as much as $20 billion over the next five years to make up for an expected shortfall in funding, reported Bloomberg, citing a source familiar with the matter.
????The Kuwait oil giant will need the money to maintain the petrostate’s crude-production levels, stated the person on condition of anonymity.
????The borrowing plan underscores how badly Persian Gulf countries were impacted by the drop in crude prices last year as the coronavirus pandemic spread and energy demand plunged, said the report.
????The company remits almost everything it generates from crude sales to the Opec member’s government. It then gets reimbursed in installments to fund capital expenditure, mainly for upstream operations and investments in oil fields, it stated.
????The firm may face a deficit of KD6 billion ($20 billion) over five years, though it hopes to minimize the gap by becoming more efficient, reported Bloomberg.
????KPC plans to cover the shortfall by issuing debt, including on international markets. The situation will be reviewed every six months to assess the company’s needs and borrowing costs, said the report citing the source.
????The Opec member’s financial position - like that of almost all major oil producers - took a hit last year when the virus grounded planes and shut down businesses across the world.
????KPC has since reached a preliminary agreement to repay the sum over 15 years. That helps but won’t solve the company’s problem, the person added.
