一季度出售油氣資產(chǎn)價值同比大減70%

據(jù)道瓊斯4月8日消息，Enverus公司高級分析師安德魯.迪特馬爾(Andrew Dittmar)表示，油價下跌和波動加劇了專注于能源業(yè)務(wù)的私募股權(quán)公司在出售油氣資產(chǎn)時已經(jīng)面臨的挑戰(zhàn)。Enverus的數(shù)據(jù)顯示，今年一季度私募股權(quán)公司財力支持的油氣生產(chǎn)商出售了價值2.7億美元的資產(chǎn)，而2019年同期為9億美元。迪特馬爾表示，即便在3月初油價暴跌之前，作為私募股權(quán)公司財力支持的油氣公司的傳統(tǒng)買家的上市能源公司，就已經(jīng)專注于保持現(xiàn)金流為正，并從收購中撤出。對于私募股權(quán)公司來說，退出油氣業(yè)務(wù)的選擇已經(jīng)非常少。

Private Equity Firms Find Exit Routes Blocked in Oil Patch

Lower and volatile oil prices are exacerbating the challenges energy-focused private-equity firms were already facing to sell assets, says Andrew Dittmar, a senior analyst at Enverus. Private equity-backed oil and gas producers sold $270M worth of assets during 1Q, compared with $900M in the same period of 2019, Enverus's data show. Even before oil prices plunged in early March, publicly traded energy companies, which are traditional buyers of private equity-backed peers, were "focusing on being cash-flow positive" and retreating from acquisitions, Dittmar says. "Exit options had been pretty thin" for private-equity firms.
