介绍:英国石油公司利润翻倍,原因是伊朗战争导致能源价格上涨

早上好,欢迎收听我们对商业、金融市场和世界经济的滚动报道。

伊朗战争帮助英国石油公司在今 年第一季度利润翻倍,其最新财务结果显示。

这家石油巨头刚刚报告说,在 2026 年头三个月实现了近 32 亿美元的利润,按其首选的“替代成本收益”衡量标准计算。

这高于城市分析师的预测,英国石油公司——上周遭受股东叛乱——将部分功劳归于其石油交易业务的“异常”贡献。

这些季度利润从 2025 年第四季度的 15.4 亿美元和去年第一季度的 13.8 亿美元增加。

2026 年第一季度包括 3 月份石油和天然气价格的飙升,战争始于 2 月底,扰乱了该地区能源供应。

英国石油公司新任首席执行官梅格·奥尼尔承认了中东冲突的影响,表示该公司正在“冲突和复杂的环境”中工作。

奥尼尔表示,英国石油公司正在“与客户和政府合作,将燃料运送到需要的地方”——此时人们担心燃油短缺。

她补充说:

总的来说,我们的业务继续运行良好。这是另一个强劲的运营和财务交付季度,我们还在朝着 2027 年目标取得了进一步的进展。我们拥有高植物可靠性、高炼油可用性和在墨西哥湾和 bpx Energy(我们美国的陆上业务)的生产增加,从而在持续中断的情况下保持了生产水平。

能源价格的飙升让央行担忧,许多央行本周正在设定利率。

日本银行在夜间维持借贷成本不变,但三名政策制定者打破了阵营,投票加息……

关于英国石油公司利润飙升,地球之友负责人、科学家、政策和研究迈克·柴尔德表示:

“正如我们 2022 年俄罗斯入侵乌克兰后所见,化石燃料巨头在全球不稳定导致燃料价格大幅上涨时获得了好处。但同样,当飙升的能源价格威胁要将英国推入更深层次的生活成本危机时,只有普通人付出代价。

“如果我们想减少对能源价格冲击的脆弱性,解决方案就更加清楚。我们必须迅速增加对廉价、清洁、本土可再生能源的投资,同时支持节能措施,从而结束我们对不稳定、昂贵的石油和天然气的依赖。

中东地区的僵局使布伦特原油价格今天升至三周高点。

布伦特原油上涨 1.75%,超过每桶 110 美元,这是自 4 月 7 日美伊休战协议达成以来首次。

有报道称,美国总统唐纳德·特朗普对伊朗提出的结束冲突并重新开放霍尔木兹海峡的提议不满意,因为它没有解决伊朗的核计划问题。

绿色和平组织的气候活动家玛雅·达灵顿表示:

“石油行业的利用人类苦难获利的能力几乎是无限的。在 70 年前美国首次为英国石油公司提供便利进行政权更迭后,我们又回到了这里,试图通过在将西方人安插到任何阻止它的石油国家中来冒着全球衰退的风险。

这对于所有人来说都是一个完全可预测的灾难,除了石油行业。英国石油公司的利润正在蓬勃发展,特朗普的炸弹为他们带来了数十亿美元,为我们带来了更大的账单。英国每年为该行业补贴数 میلیارد 美元,但他们仍然会声称被过度征税。今天的数字有力地证明了相反的情况。

全球见证:'令人震惊的是英国石油公司利润在伊朗战争期间的增长'

倡导团体全球见证指出,中东冲突是过去四年内英国石油公司获得“丰厚利润”的第二次事件。

全球见证新闻调查负责人帕特里克·盖利表示:

“看到英国石油公司利润在数百万人在美以战争对伊朗造成的后果中遭受痛苦时,令人震惊。不幸的是,我们已经经历过这种情况——4 年前俄罗斯入侵乌克兰时,我们看到大型石油公司从燃料成本飙升中获得了丰厚利润。

随着能源价格再次推高账单,很明显,化石燃料公司既不能提高负担能力,也不能提高能源安全,他们只会让生活变得更糟。他们破坏了气候,推高了生活成本,并以数十亿美元的利润为他们牟利,同时无辜的平民死亡。

我们让石油公司为他们造成的损害付费是势在必行。如果他们弄坏了,他们需要修理它。他们负担得起。

英国石油公司:中东中断将影响第二季度的上游生产

展望未来,英国石油公司预计在当前季度,化石燃料产量将下降,部分原因是伊朗战争。

它说:

展望未来,英国石油公司预计 2026 年第二季度报告的上游产量将低于 2026 年第一季度,原因是墨西哥湾的主要季节性维护以及中东的影响。

它还预计“中东的状况和发展”将使销量和燃料利润“保持敏感”。

"BP's Q1 earnings represent a cyclical peak driven by transitory trading volatility rather than sustainable operational growth, with production headwinds looming for Q2."

BP’s $3.2bn print is a classic 'trading alpha' story masking structural fragility. While the $110/bbl environment provides a massive tailwind, the reliance on 'exceptional' trading performance is a double-edged sword; it’s highly volatile and rarely sustainable. The market is cheering the profit beat, but the guidance for lower upstream production in Q2 due to Middle East disruption and maintenance is the real signal. We are seeing a classic commodity cycle peak where operational costs are rising, and geopolitical risk is no longer just a headline—it’s a direct constraint on output. Investors should be wary of a multiple compression if oil prices stabilize or if the 'war premium' dissipates, leaving behind a company with declining production volumes.

反方论证

If the conflict in the Strait of Hormuz persists, BP’s trading desk could continue to capture massive arbitrage opportunities that more than offset the decline in physical upstream production.

"BP's exceptional oil trading amid Iran war volatility drove a Q1 profit beat, underscoring operational resilience and positioning shares for near-term upside toward 2027 targets."

BP's Q1 2026 underlying replacement cost (RC) profit hit $3.2bn, doubling Q4 2025's $1.54bn and smashing analyst forecasts, fueled by 'exceptional' oil trading as Iran war spiked Brent to $110/bbl. Operational wins shone through: high Gulf of Mexico/bpx energy uptime offset disruptions, advancing 2027 targets despite conflict. Recent shareholder revolt signals governance risks, but trading prowess in volatility favors integrated majors like BP.L over pure upstream peers. Short-term re-rating likely if Q2 volumes stabilize; peers like Shell may echo gains. Bullish on BP.L near-term, but watch ME ceasefire for price sustainability.

反方论证

Q2 upstream production is set to decline from Middle East disruptions and maintenance, potentially wiping out trading windfalls if Brent normalizes post-ceasefire; activist pressure could trigger UK windfall taxes, as seen post-Ukraine.

"BP's headline profit surge is 80%+ trading gain, not operational, and the company itself is guiding for Q2 production declines—the article's optimistic framing masks deteriorating underlying cash generation."

BP's Q1 2026 profit doubling to $3.2bn looks superficially bullish, but it's almost entirely a trading windfall—not operational strength. The article buries the real concern: O'Neill explicitly warns Q2 upstream production will drop due to Middle East disruption plus seasonal maintenance. That’s a sequential earnings cliff. More critically, the 'exceptional' trading profits are inherently non-recurring; they evaporate if Brent stabilizes below $100. The article doesn't quantify what portion of the $3.2bn came from trading versus core operations, which is the only number that matters for valuation. BP is also facing renewed shareholder rebellion and potential windfall taxes if governments respond to $110 oil with fiscal measures.

反方论证

If the Iran conflict persists and forces structural supply deficits (not just price spikes), BP's upstream production drop in Q2 could be temporary, and sustained $105-115 Brent could normalize trading margins upward, making Q1 repeatable rather than anomalous.

"The Q1 spike is largely cyclical and unsustainable without a continued environment of high and volatile oil prices; the risk of mean-reversion in BP’s earnings is material."

BP just reported ~ $3.2bn Q1 2026 underlying earnings, up sharply on a short‑term spike driven by war‑related energy price volatility and an ‘exceptional’ trading contribution. The obvious read is higher profits from geopolitics; the caveat is that much of this looks cyclical. Q2 guidance points to lower upstream production due to maintenance and Middle East disruption, with margins and volumes still exposed to volatile Brent levels (Brent above $110 cited). If demand softens or a de‑risking of the Iran situation occurs, trading earnouts and realized margins could unwind. Structural leverage to oil price spikes remains fragile vs. a slower energy transition backdrop.

反方论证

If the Iran conflict persists or Brent stays elevated, BP could sustain high earnings; the downside risk is not guaranteed if volatility remains persistent.

"BP is using volatile trading windfalls to fund buybacks, masking structural production declines and delaying necessary capital expenditure."

Claude, you’re missing the capital allocation shift. While you focus on the earnings cliff, BP’s buyback program is the real mechanism here. By using these 'exceptional' trading windfalls to aggressively retire float, they are artificially inflating EPS growth even as production volumes sag. This isn't just about commodity cycles; it's a defensive financial engineering play to keep the stock price elevated while the energy transition strategy remains in total limbo. The risk isn't just volatility—it's capital misallocation.

"BP's buybacks are prudent cash return but vulnerable to Q2 FCF weakness from lower production."

Gemini, calling buybacks 'misallocation' ignores they're funded by non-recurring trading cash—standard cyclical discipline to return capital before it evaporates. Unflagged link: Q2 production drop (warned by O'Neill) risks FCF shortfall versus $2.5bn capex guidance, pressuring the program if Brent slips below $100. Ties Claude's cliff to your allocation thesis directly.

回应 Grok

"Buyback sustainability through Q2 production cliff is the hidden valuation landmine nobody's stress-tested yet."

Grok flags the FCF squeeze—$2.5bn capex guidance against potential Q2 production cliff—but nobody's quantified the actual buyback capacity if Brent drops to $95-100. Gemini's capital misallocation critique has teeth only if BP can't sustain the program; Grok's rebuttal assumes trading windfalls persist. The real test: does BP maintain buybacks through Q2 production decline, or does guidance revision force a cut? That signals whether this is disciplined cyclicality or desperation.

"Buybacks rely on non-recurring trading windfalls; once windfalls fade and Q2 production dips tighten FCF, BP may have to cut buybacks or divert cash to capex/debt, pressuring valuation."

Gemini, your buyback critique is valid as a narrative, but it presumes windfalls persist. The real risk is FCF compression if Q2 production declines collide with $2.5bn capex and a volatile Brent. Buybacks funded by non-recurring trading gains are a cyclical crutch; once windfalls fade, the balance sheet may need to divert cash to capex or debt reduction, risking multiple compression and undercutting the 'EPS boost' narrative.
