据海上能源8月5日报道，美国石油和天然气公司科斯莫斯(Kosmos )能源公司在2019年第二季度恢复盈利，这得益于创纪录产量带来的更高收入。科斯莫斯预计将在年底前宣布出售其在毛里塔尼亚和塞内加尔沿海项目的股权的交易。

2019年第二季度，该公司净利润为1700万美元。如果对影响结果可比性的某些项目进行调整，该公司2019年第二季度的调整净收入为2 200万美元。去年同期，该公司净亏损1.033亿美元。

该公司的收入从2018年同期的2.152亿美元增加到2019年第二季度的3.96亿美元。

2019年第二季度的总净产量创纪录，平均每天约71,100桶石油当量。

勘探费用为3 000万美元，资本支出为1.01亿美元。

科斯莫斯在其2019年第二季度的报告中还表示，它先前宣布的将其在更广泛的毛里塔尼亚/塞内加尔地区的利益降至10%的进程正在进行中，并将在年底前宣布一项交易通知。

公司董事长兼首席执行官安德鲁·英格利斯(Andrew G.Inglis)表示，按照目前的油价，我们预计将超过资本市场日设定的2019年自由现金流。

今年下半年，科斯莫斯公司在整个投资组合中拥有多种优势，其中包括毛里塔尼亚、赤道几内亚和墨西哥湾的五口探井，以及计划出售我们在毛里塔尼亚和塞内加尔的地位，这两项工作仍在进行中。

Kosmos returns to quarterly profit

U.S.-based oil and gas company Kosmos Energy returned to profit in the second quarter of 2019 on the back of higher revenues driven by record production. Kosmos expects to announce the deal for the sale of its interest in projects off the coast of Mauritania and Senegal by the end of the year.

For the second quarter of 2019, the company generated net income of $17 million. When adjusted for certain items that impact the comparability of results, the company generated adjusted net income of $22 million for the second quarter of 2019. In the same period last year, the company reported a net loss of $103.3 million.

The company’s revenues increased to $396 million in the second quarter of 2019 from $215.2 million in the corresponding period in 2018.

Total net production was a record in the second quarter of 2019 averaging approximately 71,100 barrels of oil equivalent per day (boepd)

Exploration expenses were $30 million, and capital expenditures were $101 million.

In its 2Q 2019 report, Kosmos also said that its previously announced process to sell down its interest in the broader Mauritania/Senegal region to 10 percent is ongoing and is targeting a transaction announcement by year end.

Andrew G. Inglis, chairman, and chief executive officer, said: “At current oil prices we are forecasting to exceed the 2019 free cash flow we set out at our capital markets day.

“Kosmos has an active second half of the year with multiple catalysts across the portfolio including five exploration wells in Mauritania, Equatorial Guinea and the Gulf of Mexico, and the planned sell down of our position in Mauritania and Senegal which remains on track.”
