原标题：雷普索尔正在权衡出售马来西亚资产可能性

中国石化新闻网讯 据彭博新闻社2020年1月10日报道，据知情人士透露，西班牙石油巨头雷普索尔公司时下正在为其在马来西亚的上游业务探索各种选择，其中包括可能的出售。雷普索尔公司时下正在评估其全球投资组合。

由于此事属于秘密而要求不具名采访的知情人士表示，马来西亚的资产可能会吸引该地区其它能源公司的兴趣。此次资产评估之际，雷普索尔公司正在制定一项新的战略计划，预计将在今年上半年对外公布。

雷普索尔公司在其网站上称，该公司拥有马来西亚6个开发区块的权益，净探区面积为3126平方公里(1207平方英里)。雷普索尔公司在马来西亚的主要上游项目包括位于马来西亚沙巴盆地西部的成熟海上油田基纳巴鲁油田。雷普索尔公司持有该项目60%的股份，而国有马来西亚国家石油公司持有其余40%的股份。

上述知情人士说，评估还处于初期阶段，雷普索尔公司可能仍会决定保留这些资产。总部位于马德里的雷普索尔公司的一位代表拒绝置评。

去年12月，雷普索尔公司下调了对油气资产价值的长期预期，导致了48亿欧元(53亿美元)的会计费用。雷普索尔公司高度依赖炼油利润，在巴西、阿拉斯加和越南等市场拥有石油勘探和生产业务。自2018年以来，雷普索尔公司还一直在投资可再生能源。

雷普索尔公司可能是继英国派特法等竞争对手之后最新一家希望将在马来西亚的投资变现的石油公司。去年，美国墨菲石油公司同意以21亿美元出售其在马来西亚的投资组合。

Repsol Weighs Potential Sale of Malaysian Assets

Repsol SA is exploring options for its Malaysian upstream operations including a potential sale as the Spanish oil company reviews its global portfolio, according to people familiar with the matter.

The Malaysian assets could attract interest from other energy companies in the region, the people said, asking not to be identified because the matter is private. The asset review comes as Repsol is working on a new strategic plan, which is expected to be presented in the first half of the year.

Repsol owns rights to six development blocks in Malaysia with a net surface area of 3,126 square kilometers (1,207 square miles), according to its website. Its major upstream projects include Kinabalu, a mature offshore oilfield located in the west of the Malaysian basin of Sabah. Repsol holds a 60% stake in the project, while state-owned Petroliam Nasional Bhd., known as Petronas, owns the remaining 40%.

The review is at an early stage, and Repsol could still decide to keep the assets, the people said. A representative for Madrid-based Repsol declined to comment.

In December, Repsol cut its long-term view of the value of hydrocarbon assets, resulting in a 4.8 billion-euro ($5.3 billion) accounting charge. The company, which is highly reliant on profits from refining, has oil exploration and production operations in markets including Brazil, Alaska and Vietnam. It has also been investing in renewable energy since 2018.

Repsol could be the latest oil company looking to monetize its investments in Malaysia, following rivals such as U.K.-based Petrofac Ltd. and Exxon Mobil Corp. Last year, Murphy Oil Corp. agreed to sell its portfolio in Malaysia for $2.1 billion.
