Sinopec interim profit soars by 10.4% on stronger oil and gas prices

The group reported an interim income of $8.85b.

China Petroleum and Chemical Corp. (Sinopec) reported a surge of 10.4% to $8.85b on its interim net income due to strong oil and gas prices, the group reported in a stock filing

The group reported $321.56b (CN¥1.61t) in revenues for the six months, an increase of 27.9% from the same period last year.

Sinopec processed a total of 120.76 million tonnes of crude oil, a decrease of 4.2% compared to a year ago. Refined fuel sales fell by 9.8% to 98.42 million tonnes

Covid-19 restrictions and fuel export curbs dragged down production, leading to China's first annual decline in refinery output since 2011.

Sinopec is the world’s largest refiner by capacity.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
