Oil prices continued to rise, PetroChina's performance hit a seven-year high and continued to be optimistic about the prosperity of the petrochemical sector: on the crude oil supply side, although the supply impact caused by bad weather and geopolitics gradually recovered, the lack of idle capacity in OPEC + member countries had a greater impact on crude oil supply, the global crude oil supply was tight and the space for increasing production was limited. On the demand side, despite the fierce outbreak of Omicron, the R & D and delivery of effective drugs are also continuing. The market's concern about crude oil demand is gradually alleviated, and the global crude oil demand will maintain a recovery trend. In addition, offshore crude oil has become the main force in the growth of China's crude oil production. According to the China marine energy development report 2021 issued by the Energy Economics Research Institute of CNOOC Group, China's offshore oil and gas production reached a new high in 21 years. It is expected that the offshore crude oil production will increase to 54.64 million tons, exceeding the historical high in 2015, and the increment of offshore crude oil production will exceed 80% of the national increment. The supply and demand pattern of crude oil is good in 22 years, the oil price is expected to remain high, continue to be optimistic about the prosperity of the petrochemical sector, and the upstream oil and gas, oil service and private large refining and chemical companies are expected to fully benefit. This week, PetroChina released the performance forecast for 2021. It is expected to realize a net profit attributable to the parent company of 90-94 billion yuan in 21 years, with a year-on-year increase of 374% - 395%. The company's oil and gas business has been steadily promoted. The sales of main oil and gas products have increased both volume and price, superimposed cost reduction and efficiency increase, and the company's performance in 21 years has increased significantly year-on-year, reaching a new high in recent seven years.
The goal of "steady growth" is clear, and we are optimistic about the white horse, the leader of undervalued value represented by private large-scale refining: "steady growth" policy has been frequently emphasized recently, and the policy is expected to accelerate its implementation. We have three interpretations: 1) stabilizing industrial economic growth is the core task of "stabilizing growth". As an important part of industrial economy, the chemical industry will become one of the footholds for China to achieve the goal of stable economic growth. 2) Under the main tone of "steady growth", domestic demand expanded and boosted the midstream scenery of the chemical industry. 3) Energy consumption dual control approval adjustment superimposed on the implementation of the "steady growth" policy, the approval margin of high-quality chemical projects was relaxed, and the expectation was enhanced. Under the background of "steady growth", we believe that the performance of the original business of the chemical industry leader is expected to continue to shine in the future. At the same time, the improvement of the downstream industrial chain layout will bring considerable performance increment, and the improvement of the industrial chain layout will also reduce the performance volatility. Therefore, Baima, the leader represented by private refining, will still have high growth in the future. At the current time point, the leading white horse represented by private refining has the characteristics of "undervalued value + high growth" and has high investment value.
