Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE:XOM) and Qatar Energy's lead contractor for their Texas liquefied natural gas (LNG) plant reportedly filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, citing challenges at the project.

据报道,埃克森美孚公司(纽约证券交易所代码:XOM)和卡塔尔能源公司德克萨斯州液化天然气(LNG)工厂的主要承包商以该项目面临挑战为由申请了第11章的破产保护。

Zachry Holdings, which held the lion's share of the $10 billion construction project called Golden Pass LNG, said it was pursuing a "structured exit," according to Reuters.

据路透社报道,持有名为Golden Pass LNG的100亿美元建筑项目的大部分股份的扎克里控股公司表示,正在寻求 “结构性退出”。

Golden Pass LNG is one of two large U.S. LNG terminals whose startup will significantly expand exports in the next 12 months.

Golden Pass LNG是美国两个大型液化天然气接收站之一,这两个接收站的启动将在未来12个月内大幅扩大出口。

Zachry Holdings, whose share of the project was valued at $5.8 billion, stated that it faced cost challenges over a change order and billings schedule and is engaged in negotiations with Golden Pass LNG for additional funding without success.

Zachry Holdings在该项目中的份额为58亿美元,该公司表示,它在变更单和账单计划方面面临成本挑战,并正在与Golden Pass LNG进行谈判,争取额外资金,但没有成功。

According to court filings, on May 8, Golden Pass notified Zachry of default of its engineering, procurement and construction contract, citing, its inability to pay subcontractors and vendors promptly.

根据法庭文件,5月8日,Golden Pass以无法及时向分包商和供应商付款为由,通知扎克里违约了其工程、采购和施工合同。

"We, along with the other stakeholders, are considering all available options to implement a smooth transition and minimize any impacts. We plan to continue to fully support Golden Pass LNG through completion." an Exxon spokesperson said.

“我们和其他利益相关者正在考虑所有可用的选择,以实现平稳过渡并最大限度地减少任何影响。我们计划继续全力支持Golden Pass液化天然气直至完工。” 埃克森美孚发言人说。

Earlier this year, Exxon, which owns a 30% stake in the project, said it expected the first LNG production to be in the first half of 2025.

今年早些时候,拥有该项目30%股份的埃克森美孚表示,预计2025年上半年将首次生产液化天然气。

"Because we have been unable to find a path forward, we have been forced to take action to protect our business," said John Zachry, CEO of the San Antonio, Texas-based company.

这家总部位于德克萨斯州圣安东尼奥的公司的首席执行官约翰·扎克里说:“由于我们找不到前进的道路,我们被迫采取行动保护我们的业务。”

Investors can gain exposure to the XOM stock via Energy Select Sector SPDR Fund (NYSE:XLE) and IShares U.S. Energy ETF (NYSE:IYE).

投资者可以通过能源精选板块SPDR基金(纽约证券交易所代码:XLE)和iShares美国能源ETF(纽约证券交易所代码:IYE)获得XOM股票的敞口。

Price Action: XOM shares are down 1.81% at $116.15 at the last check Wednesday.
