据油价网7月14日报道,意大利能源巨头埃尼首席执行官克劳迪奥·笛卡尔齐(ClaudioDescalzi)在接受彭博社采访时表示,埃尼集团计划在未来十年内退出传统的炼油活动,因为其专注于生物精炼厂,并加快向低碳能源的过渡。
在埃尼6月份宣布“新的商业结构成为能源转型的领导者”一个月后,这位高级主管发表了讲话,在该公司设立了一个能源进化部门,以加快其大幅提高可再生能源发电和生物燃料生产的计划。
埃尼在威尼斯和意大利格拉有生物精炼厂,从传统的化石燃料炼油厂转变为生物精炼厂,以生产高质量、更清洁的燃料。
Descalzi告诉彭博社,在三月至五月初的意大利封锁期间,只有这两家生物精炼厂没有减少产能,因为它们“运转得很好”。
经理指出,生物炼油厂的内部收益率约为15%,与上游相比“不错”。
本月早些时候,埃尼与英国石油(BP)和壳牌(Shell)等其他欧洲巨头一样,降低了长期油价假设,并警告说,由于其上游资产价值较低,将存在减值支出。
在降低油价假设的同时,这家意大利公司上周重申了其2月份的承诺,即减少碳足迹,甚至可能加快其在能源转型中的准备工作。
Descalzi表示,我们确认我们的战略是成为脱碳进程的领导者,尽管疫情对全球经济和公司产生了长期影响。 我们正在评估如何加快我们的计划。
根据最近对过渡路径倡议(TPI)的分析,这是一项由超过19万亿美元全球资本支持的投资者倡议-壳牌和埃尼如今在六个欧洲石油巨头-壳牌、埃尼、英国石油公司(BP)、道达尔、雷普索尔和OMV中拥有最雄心勃勃的减排计划。
投资者倡议称,ENI有最全面的战略反应,设定了到2050年将所有排放(包括范围3)减少80%的绝对目标,并披露了碳捕获和储存(CCS)的预期贡献。

Italian Oil Major Looks To Leave Conventional Refining
Italian major Eni plans to exit traditional refining activities within the next decade as it is focused on bio-refineries and accelerating its transition to low-carbon energy, chief executive Claudio Descalzi told Bloomberg in an interview.
The top executive spoke a month after Eni announced in June a “new business structure to be a leader in the energy transition,” creating an Energy Evolution division in the company to accelerate its plans to significantly boost renewable power generation and biofuels production.
Eni has bio-refineries in Venice and Gela, Italy, converted from conventional fossil-fuel refineries into bio-refineries to produce high-quality, cleaner fuels.
Only the two bio-refineries didn’t work at reduced capacity during Italy’s lockdown between March and early May, because they “worked very well,” Descalzi told Bloomberg.
The internal rate of return at bio-refineries is around 15 percent, “not bad” compared to the upstream, the manager noted.
Earlier this month, Eni – like other European majors such as BP and Shell – reduced its long-term oil price assumptions and warned of impairment charges due to the lower value of its upstream assets.
While reducing its oil price assumptions, the Italian company reiterated last week its February commitment to reduce its carbon footprint and possibly even speed up its efforts to be more prepared in the energy transition.
“We confirm our strategy to become a leader in the decarbonization process, notwithstanding the enduring impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on the global economy and the Company. We are assessing how to speed up our plans,” Descalzi said.
According to a recent analysis from Transition Pathway Initiative (TPI) – an investor initiative backed by over $19 trillion of global capital - Shell and Eni now have the most ambitious emissions-reduction plans among the six European oil majors—Shell, Eni, BP, Total, Repsol, and OMV.
Eni has the most comprehensive strategic response with setting an absolute target to reduce all emissions, including Scope 3, by 80 percent by 2050, and disclosing the expected contribution of carbon capture and storage (CCS), the investor initiative said.
