???? 据油气新闻2月5日消息称，日本贸易公司住友公司发言人周四表示，该公司已在2020年第四季度出售了其在鹰福特一个项目中的股份，从而退出了美国的页岩油业务。

????住友在2018年收购了德克萨斯州南部鹰福特地层一个油田的100%股权，该油田的最高日产量将达到3000桶石油当量。

????尽管2014-2015年，在油价暴跌迫使国际能源公司和日本贸易公司减记资产的情况下，该公司此前在美国的页岩气和石油资产出现了巨额减值损失，但它还是购买了上述股份。

????这位发言人说，住友去年决定出售这些股份，这是该公司最后的页岩气和石油资产，但他没有给出交易的理由或金额。

????住友还在2020年出售了其在美国马塞勒斯页岩气项目的全部股权，具体金额未透露。

????Sumitomo quits U.S. shale oil with sale of Eagle Ford stake

????Japanese trading house Sumitomo Corp has quit the shale oil business in the United States by selling its stake in a project in the Eagle Ford during the October to December quarter of 2020, a company spokesman said on Thursday.

????Sumitomo bought a 100% stake in 2018 in a field in the Eagle Ford formation of southern Texas that was set to have peak output of 3,000 barrels of oil euqivalent per day.

????It purchased the stake despite hefty impairment losses on its previous U.S. shale gas and oil assets in 2014-2015 when slumping prices forced international energy companies and Japanese trading houses to writedown the their assets.

????Sumitomo decided to sell the stake last year, the company’s last shale gas and oil asset, the spokesman said, without giving a reason or a sum for the deal.

????Sumitomo also sold its entire stake in a Marcellus shale gas project in the U.S. for a undisclosed sum in 2020.
