科斯莫斯能源與托克簽署了原油預(yù)付協(xié)議

據(jù)OE網(wǎng)站6月29日?qǐng)?bào)道，石油和天然氣公司科斯莫斯能源公司（Kosmos Energy）與大宗商品交易商托克集團(tuán)（Trafigura）簽訂了原油預(yù)付協(xié)議，以支付其在美國(guó)墨西哥灣的部分產(chǎn)量費(fèi)用。

科斯莫斯能源周一表示，該預(yù)付款協(xié)議將提供高達(dá)2億美元的原油銷售，主要與該公司2022年和2023年墨西哥灣部分產(chǎn)量有關(guān)，其中1.5億美元由托克承付。

該公司稱，科斯莫斯預(yù)計(jì)將在2020年6月提前完成5000萬(wàn)美元的原油銷售。今年晚些時(shí)候，隨著預(yù)付款協(xié)議條件的完成，預(yù)計(jì)還將增加1億-1.5億美元的原油銷售，最終還將增加5000萬(wàn)美元的承諾。

科斯莫斯沒(méi)有提供預(yù)計(jì)將出售給托克的石油數(shù)量的任何細(xì)節(jié)。

科斯莫斯能源最近任命的首席財(cái)務(wù)官Neal Shah表示，在市場(chǎng)開始低迷時(shí)，科斯莫斯采取了果斷行動(dòng)，以降低成本、重組對(duì)沖基金并保持流動(dòng)性。通過(guò)這項(xiàng)預(yù)付協(xié)議，我們獲得了高達(dá)2億美元的額外流動(dòng)資金，以幫助我們?cè)谶@個(gè)前所未有的動(dòng)蕩時(shí)期管理業(yè)務(wù)。這種流動(dòng)性也使我們能夠靈活地利用在混亂的市場(chǎng)中可能出現(xiàn)的機(jī)會(huì)。

科斯莫斯表示，該公司正在資產(chǎn)負(fù)債表上評(píng)估將該預(yù)付款協(xié)議歸類為遞延收入的做法，"不過(guò)這種會(huì)計(jì)處理方法有待最終分析。"

科斯莫斯上月表示，包括對(duì)沖計(jì)劃的影響在內(nèi)，其今年第一季度實(shí)現(xiàn)的油氣收入為每桶油當(dāng)量47.77美元。

今年第一季度的總凈產(chǎn)量日均約為6.63萬(wàn)桶油當(dāng)量，處于指導(dǎo)值的上端，其中美國(guó)墨西哥灣的凈產(chǎn)量為2.83萬(wàn)桶/天（80%的石油)。

Kosmos Energy in $200M Prepayment Deal for Gulf of Mexico Crude

Oil and gas company Kosmos Energy has into a crude oil prepayment agreement with commodities trader Trafigura for a portion of its production in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.

The prepayment agreement provides up to $200 million of crude oil sales primarily related to a portion of the company's 2022 and 2023 Gulf of Mexico production, with $150 million committed by Trafigura, Kosmos Energy said Monday.

"Kosmos expects to execute $50 million of advance crude oil sales in June 2020. Later this year, following the completion of the prepayment agreement conditions subsequent, an additional $100-150 million of advance crude oil sales is expected, subject to finalizing additional commitments for $50 million," the company said.

Kosmos did not provide any detail on the amount of oil expected to be sold to Trafigura.

Neal Shah, Kosmos Energy's recently appointed Chief Financial Officer, said:: "At the start of the market downturn, Kosmos took decisive action to reduce costs, restructure hedges, and preserve liquidity. With this prepayment agreement, we have secured up to $200 million in additional liquidity to help us manage the business during this time of unprecedented volatility. This liquidity also gives us the flexibility to take advantage of opportunities that may arise in a dislocated market."

Kosmos said it was evaluating the classification of the prepayment agreement as deferred revenue on its balance sheet, "although such accounting treatment is subject to final analysis."

Kosmos last month said its realized oil and gas revenues, including the impact of hedging program, in the first quarter of 2020 had been $47.77 per boe.

Total net production in the first quarter of 2020 averaged approximately 66,300 boepd, at the upper end of guidance, of which 28,300 boepd net (80% oil) from the U.S. Gulf of Mexico.
