據油價網2021年6月24日報道,美國雪佛龍公司首席財務官皮埃爾·布萊伯周四(6月24日)在路透社召開的一次會議上表示,與歐洲石油巨頭不同,雪佛龍公司沒有減少石油和天然氣業務以投資太陽能或風能的計劃。
股東們加大了對包括雪佛龍公司在內的全球最大的上市石油公司的壓力,要求它們開始為在能源轉型中盈利做好準備。大多數歐洲石油和天然氣巨頭都承諾到2050年前成為凈零排放能源企業,并將越來越多的資金投入可再生能源和低碳能源解決方案。
在雪佛龍公司,61%的股東支持6月份召開的年度股東大會上的一項提案,該提案要求公司削減所謂的范圍 3排放,即使用其產品產生的排放,董事會拒絕了該提案,此前董事會曾敦促股東們拒絕該提案。
布萊伯表示,雪佛龍公司將投資減少運營中二氧化碳排放的技術,而不是投資于風能或太陽能等可再生能源。
布萊伯在路透社全球能源轉型大會上表示,到2028年,雪佛龍公司計劃在減排技術和行動上投資約30億美元。布萊伯指出,在計劃的投資中,雪佛龍公司將投資20億美元用于減少生產中的碳排放,另外7.5億美元用于生產可再生燃料,如可再生天然氣。
在今年3月份舉行的年度投資者會議上,雪佛龍公司曾表示將在2028年前將碳強度降低35%,到2030年前實現常規燃除的零排放。雪佛龍公司還計劃投資于低碳技術,如氫和碳的捕獲、利用和儲存(CCUS)。
雪佛龍公司的做法與歐洲主要石油公司不同,歐洲主要石油公司預計未來將降低石油產量,同時增加可再生電力的投資和產量。

Chevron Won’t Cut Oil & Gas Business For Renewables
Unlike European supermajors, U.S. Chevron doesn’t have any plans to reduce its oil and gas business to invest in solar or wind power, chief financial officer Pierre Breber said at a Reuters conference on Thursday.
Shareholders have ramped up pressure on the world’s largest public companies—including Chevron—to start preparing their business for profits in the energy transition. Most European oil and gas supermajors have pledged to become net-zero energy businesses by 2050 and to invest growing amounts of cash into renewable and low-carbon energy solutions.
At Chevron, 61 percent of shareholders backed a proposal at the annual general meeting last month that the company cut its so-called Scope 3 emissions, the ones generated by the use of its products, rebuffing the board, which had urged shareholders to reject it.
Chevron will be investing in technology to cut emissions from its operations, instead of investing in renewable energy sources such as wind or solar power, according to CFO Breber.
The U.S. firm plans to invest around $3 billion in emissions-cutting technology and actions through 2028, Breber said at the Reuters Events Global Energy Transition conference. Out of the planned investment, Chevron will invest $2 billion to cut emissions from its production and another $750 million to produce renewable fuels such as renewable natural gas, Breber noted.
At its annual investor meeting in March, Chevron said it would reduce carbon intensity by 35 percent by 2028 and achieve zero routine flaring by 2030. Chevron also plans to invest in low-carbon technologies such as hydrogen and carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS).
Chevron’s approach differs from that of the major European oil firms, which expect to lower their oil production going forward while raising investment and production of renewable electricity.
