據(jù)美國(guó)油價(jià)網(wǎng)2022年5月17日?qǐng)?bào)道,知情人士周二(5月17日)告訴美國(guó)彭博新聞社記者,沙特阿拉伯石油巨頭沙特阿拉伯國(guó)家石油公司(沙特阿美/Aramco)時(shí)下正在與主要國(guó)際銀行討論將其旗下貿(mào)易部門阿美貿(mào)易公司30%股份上市的可能性,該貿(mào)易公司估值可能在300億美元左右。
彭博新聞社消息人士稱,沙特阿美是世界上最大的石油生產(chǎn)商和市值最高的石油公司,沙特阿美時(shí)下正在與包括高盛、摩根士丹利和摩根大通在內(nèi)的國(guó)際著名銀行就沙特阿美貿(mào)易公司進(jìn)行首次公開募股(IPO)的可能性進(jìn)行談判。
如果沙特阿美決定實(shí)施這一計(jì)劃(目前這一計(jì)劃仍有可能改變,而且這家沙特石油巨頭可能放棄這一想法),沙特阿美貿(mào)易公司的IPO可能成為今年全球最大的股份上市交易之一。
兩位彭博新聞社消息人士稱,沙特阿美貿(mào)易部門的估值可能高達(dá)300億美元,而據(jù)報(bào)道,這家沙特能源巨頭正考慮將其麾下的貿(mào)易部門30%的股份上市。今年迄今為止,規(guī)模最大的IPO是韓國(guó)電池制造商LG能源解決方案公司,后者在今年1月份通過(guò)IPO籌集了108億美元。
據(jù)悉,沙特阿美正在尋求利用油價(jià)飆升和推進(jìn)全球石油交易業(yè)務(wù)。
沙特阿美貿(mào)易公司成立于2011年,是沙特阿美旗下的貿(mào)易部門,已經(jīng)從貿(mào)易精制石油產(chǎn)品、調(diào)和組分、大宗石化產(chǎn)品和聚烯烴,發(fā)展到原油和液化天然氣貿(mào)易。該公司網(wǎng)站稱,2016年,阿美貿(mào)易公司將業(yè)務(wù)擴(kuò)展至第三方貿(mào)易。
在今年第一季度,這是有史以來(lái)最動(dòng)蕩的一個(gè)季度,石油巨頭,特別是歐洲的石油巨頭殼牌公司、英國(guó)石油公司和法國(guó)道達(dá)爾能源公司,報(bào)告了出色的貿(mào)易業(yè)績(jī),這主要是因?yàn)樗麄儷@得了多年來(lái)最高的季度收益,以及創(chuàng)紀(jì)錄的天然氣價(jià)格和2014年以來(lái)最高的油價(jià)。
沙特阿美上周末公布,其第一季度凈利潤(rùn)為395億美元,同比增加82%,創(chuàng)下3年前上市以來(lái)的最高季度利潤(rùn)紀(jì)錄。

Saudi Aramco Considers Listing $30 Billion Trading Arm As Oil Prices Soar
Saudi oil giant Aramco is discussing with major international banks the possibility of listing 30 percent of its trading arm, Aramco Trading, 100 percent of which could be valued at around $30 billion, sources familiar with the matter told Bloomberg on Tuesday.
Saudi Aramco, the world’s single biggest oil producer and most valuable oil company by market capitalization, is in talks with banks including Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley, and JPMorgan Chase & Co. about the potential to carry out an initial public offering (IPO) of Aramco Trading, Bloomberg’s source say.
If Aramco decides to go through with the plan—which still may change and the oil giant may back out of the idea--Aramco Trading’s IPO could become one of the largest stock market listings in the world this year.
Aramco Trading could be valued at as much as $30 billion, two of Bloomberg’s sources said, while the Saudi giant is reportedly considering listing 30 percent of the trading arm. So far this year, the largest IPO was South Korea’s battery manufacturer LG Energy Solution, which raised $10.8 billion in January.
Aramco is now reportedly looking to capitalize on the surging oil prices and oil trading business globally amid supply constraints and altered trade flows .
Aramco Trading was established as Saudi Aramco’s trading arm in 2011 and has grown from trading refined products, bulk petrochemicals, and polyolefins, to crude and LNG trading. In 2016, Aramco Trading expanded into third-party trading, its website says.
During Q1 2022, the most volatile quarter on record, oil majors, especially Europe’s supermajors Shell, BP, and TotalEnergies, reported “exceptional” trading results, which contributed to their highest quarterly earnings in years, together with record high natural gas prices and the highest oil prices since 2014.
Saudi Aramco, for its part, reported this weekend a net profit of $39.5 billion for the first quarter, an 82-percent annual jump and a record quarterly profit for Aramco since it went public three years ago.
