原标题：日本Inpex重新评估投资计划
中国石化新闻网讯 据3月25日Offshore Energy报道，日本Inpex公司正重新评估其投资计划，并考虑其他降低成本的措施，以应对当前的市场形势。
Inpex周三表示,石油和天然气的价格在很大程度上取决于国际市场走势,受国际和地区供求波动以及全球经济和金融市场状况等诸多因素的影响。
目前，由于能源需求预期将会下降，油价正在迅速下跌。尽管目前无法预测这一严峻形势将会延续多久，但Inpex表示，其政策是通过优化运营、审查全集团的投资计划和采取进一步的成本削减措施，将油价在一定时间内维持在当前水平的影响减至最低，以维持稳定的商业运作。
该公司表示，将及时披露其在2020年2月12日宣布的截至2020年12月31日的年度综合经营业绩预测。
如果Inpex决定在2020年削减开支，它将与全球许多石油和天然气运营商一道，其中一些运营商已采取了严厉措施，削减今明两年的支出。

Inpex reviewing investment plans amid oil price decline and coronavirus crisis
Japan’s Inpex Corporation is reviewing its investment plans and looking into other cost-reducing measures due to the current market situation and the impact of the coronavirus and the oil price decline on its business operations.
In a notice concerning the impact of the oil price decline and the coronavirus pandemic, Inpex said on Wednesday that the prices of oil and natural gas are determined in large part by international market trends, which are influenced by numerous factors including international and regional supply and demand fluctuations as well as the condition of the global economy and financial markets.
Currently, oil prices are rapidly declining due to the expectation of a reduction in energy demand following a global economic downturn induced by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the breakdown of the OPEC+ production cut agreement.
While it remains a challenge at this stage to forecast how long these conditions will last, Inpex said its policy is to minimize the impact of oil prices maintaining their current level for a certain amount of time by optimizing operations, reviewing investment plans group-wide, and pursuing further cost-reduction measures, in order to sustain stable business operations.
The company said it would disclose the impact to the forecasted consolidated operating results for the year ending December 31, 2020, announced on February 12, 2020, in a timely manner once the impact was determined.
If Inpex decides to reduce its spending for 2020, it would be joining many oil and gas operators around the world, some of which have taken drastic measures to cut their spending for this year as well as the next.
