据OE网站7月29日报道，墨西哥国有石油公司Pemex首席执行官罗梅罗告诉路透称，该公司预计今年将实现罕见的年度利润，已连续两个季度实现盈利，新油田的原油产量将有所提振。

如果能够实现，这将是墨西哥国家石油公司10多年来首次实现年度盈利。历史上最高的税单和炼油部门的巨额亏损使该公司多年来一直处于亏损状态。

周四早些时候，这家墨西哥石油巨头公布第二季度利润为65亿美元，由于油价飙升提振了全球各地的石油公司，同时该公司的税收大幅减少。

今年上半年，这家国有生产商的利润总额约为127亿美元，而去年同期亏损了230亿美元。

罗梅罗周四晚些时候接受采访时表示，我们对墨西哥国家石油公司的重大决定是，在如此糟糕、不利的形势下投资，并继续投资。他指的是前几年油价低得多的时候。

第二季度，墨西哥原油均价逾105美元/桶。

Pemex是世界上负债最多的石油公司之一。该公司周四向墨西哥证交所提交的一份文件显示，其金融债务总额为1081亿美元。该公司还报告称，其还欠服务提供商137亿美元。

在财报发布后与分析师的电话会议上，罗梅罗提到了主要评级机构穆迪对墨西哥国家石油公司债务的悲观评估。鉴于该公司潜在的财务问题和沉重的债务负担，穆迪将该公司的债务评级量化为投机级。

墨国油首席执行官还预计，由于约40个新优先油田即将投产，到今年年底该公司的石油日产量将从目前的170万桶增至约190万桶。公司有许多油井即将投产，许多油井将在近期内开启钻探。

Mexico's Pemex Expects Rare Annual Profit

Mexican state oil company Pemex expects to post a rare annual profit this year, with two consecutive quarters already in the black and a boost to crude output from new fields, Chief Executive Octavio Romero told Reuters.

If achieved, it will be Pemex's first annual profit in more than a decade. A historically high tax bill and massive losses from its refining unit have kept it in the red for years.

Earlier on Thursday, the Mexican oil giant reported a second-quarter profit of $6.5 billion, powered by surging prices that have lifted oil companies across the globe and a significant reduction in its tax bill.

For the first half, the state-owned producer's profits have totaled some $12.7 billion, compared with $23 billion in losses during the same period last year.

"Our big decision at Pemex was to invest and keep investing during such an ugly, adverse situation," Romero said in an interview later on Thursday, referring to previous years when oil prices were much lower.

Prices for Mexican crude oil averaged more than $105 per barrel in the second quarter.

Pemex, one of the world's most indebted oil companies, reported total financial debt of $108.1 billion in a filing with Mexico's stock exchange on Thursday. The company also reported that it owed a further $13.7 billion to service providers.

In a call with analysts after the profit report, Romero called out major ratings agency Moody's, suggesting it revisit its downbeat assessment of Pemex debt, which it quantifies as speculative grade due to the company's underlying financial problems and heavy debt load.

The Pemex chief added that he expected the company's oil output to rise to about 1.9 million barrels per day (bpd) by the end of this year from 1.7 million bpd currently, thanks to imminent production from roughly 40 new priority fields.

"We have many wells that are about to come online, and many wells that will be drilled in the near-term."
