-- 獨立研究機構CFRA向提供了以下研究報告。 CFRA分析師總結如下:BP 2026年第一季煉油利潤為32億美元(年增2.1倍),符合市場預期,但高於我們的預期,分別佔2026年市場普遍預期的25%和我們預期的47%。這一業績較第四季季減30%的顯著逆轉,主要得益於強勁的石油交易和更高的煉油利潤率(16.9美元/桶,高於第四季的15.2美元/桶)。我們對此意外之財的可持續性表示擔憂,尤其是客戶和產品較上季成長2.1倍的顯著成長。管理層警告稱,2026年第二季將面臨多重不利因素,包括季節性維護和中東地區生產中斷導致上游產量下降、中游業務業績下滑以及煉油廠檢修活動增加。更新後的 2026 年業績指引預計上游產量將下降,而不是像先前指引的那樣基本持平,而基礎產量指引與先前的成長預期相比仍基本持平,這表明中東地區的動盪對營運的影響比最初預期的更為嚴重。
