Las utilidades petroleras se disparan
November 2, 2022 - A pesar de recientes bajas de precios, las utilidades de las mayores firmas petroleras siguen subiendo mientras los costos del combustible causan inflación y una crisis del costo de la vida.
Saudi Aramco has reported its second highest profits since floating on the stock market in 2019, while BP announced its Q3 profits have doubled. There are calls from across the political spectrum to extract some of these profits in a windfall tax to ease the burden on ordinary households.
Meanwhile, Gazprom has seen revenue double – despite a 43% fall in shipments to Europe due to the war in Ukraine – by more than tripling gas export prices.
