On October 27, 2022, CNOOC Limited (“CNOOC”) reported excellent operating results for the first three quarters of 2022.  During this period, CNOOC’s unaudited oil and gas sales revenue was approximately RMB265.89 billion, a 67.6% year-over-year increase.  The company attributed the increase to higher international oil prices and increased sales volume.  Specifically, during the first three quarters of 2022, CNOOC reached a record high to produce 461.5 million barrels of oil.  Mr. ZHOU Xinhuai, CEO of CNOOC, predicted that the company “will continue to maintain its high-quality development [and] achieve [its] full-year targets”.

CNOOC’s operating results are impressive.  However, is CNOOC still on track to accomplish the carbon peaking and carbon neutrality goals set forth in its action plan released in June 2022?

2022年10月27日,中国海洋石油有限公司(“中海油”)公布了2022年前三季度优异的业绩表现。前三季度,该公司未经审计的油气销售收入约为人民币2658.9亿元,同比上升67.6%。中海油将此上升归因于国际油价上涨和销量的增加。具体而言,前三季度,中海油的石油产量创历史新高,共生产了4.615亿桶石油。中海油首席执行官周心怀先生预测,中海油“将继续保持高质量发展,[并]实现[其]全年目标”。

中海油的业绩表现十分亮眼。然而,中海油是否仍有望实现该公司于2022 年 6 月发布的行动计划中所提出的碳达峰和碳中和目标?
