据外媒6月17日报道，俄罗斯卢克石油公司总裁Vagit Alekperov在接受采访时表示，该公司正在考虑剥离或出售其在欧洲的下游资产，从而专注开展俄罗斯和海外的勘探业务。
Alekperov表示，卢克石油业务重心正在重新转向国内外的上游业务，目前的石油产量达到200万桶/日，仅略低于OPEC成员国委内瑞拉的产量。他说：“在未来，我们很有可能考虑剥离欧洲下游业务，或出售这些资产。中期，我们将专注于地质勘探。不过这仅针对下游业务，在上游业务方面，我们将继续开发，而墨西哥、伊朗、挪威都是我们的发展目标。下游业务并不稳定，我们进入欧洲时，正处于行业顶点，之后我们熬过了低谷，现在行情回暖，或许是时候该撤退了。”

Lukoil to consider spinning off Europe downstream assets, focus on drilling
Russia's Lukoil may consider spinning off or selling its downstream assets in Europe to focus on exploration both in Russia and abroad, Chief Executive Vagit Alekperov told Reuters in an interview.
Lukoil, which is pumping around 2 million barrels of oil per day (BPd) - a little less than OPEC member Venezuela does - is refocusing on upstream both at home and abroad, Alekperov said.
"Most likely, in the future, we will consider the following step: Spinning off (the European downstream business to) a European downstream company or selling the assets. In the medium-term, the company will focus on geological exploration."
"This is downstream only - in upstream we are developing and target Mexico, Iran, Norway," Alekperov said. "Downstream business is very volatile. When we actively entered that (in Europe), it was on its peak, then we survived a trough, now it is good again. Maybe this is a time to withdraw?"
