TotalEnergies: Third Quarter 2024: Main Indicators
TotalEnergies has released its main indicators and estimated financial information for the third quarter of 2024. Key points include:
- Brent crude price averaged $80.3/b, down from $85.0/b in Q2 2024
- Average liquids price was $77.0/b, down from $81.0/b in Q2
- Average gas price increased to $5.78/Mbtu from $5.05/Mbtu in Q2
- European Refining Margin Marker dropped significantly to $15.4/t from $44.9/t in Q2
Hydrocarbon production is expected to be 2.4 Mboe/d, with the Mero 2 project in Brazil ramping up. Exploration & Production results are likely to reflect lower liquid prices offset by higher gas prices. Integrated LNG results are anticipated to exceed $1 billion. Downstream results are expected to decrease sharply due to lower refining margins.
TotalEnergies ha rilasciato i suoi principali indicatori e stime finanziarie per il terzo trimestre del 2024. I punti chiave includono:
- Il prezzo del greggio Brent è stato in media 80,3 $/b, in calo rispetto agli 85,0 $/b del secondo trimestre 2024
- Il prezzo medio dei liquidi è stato 77,0 $/b, in calo dagli 81,0 $/b nel secondo trimestre
- Il prezzo medio del gas è aumentato a 5,78 $/Mbtu rispetto ai 5,05 $/Mbtu del secondo trimestre
- Il Margine di Raffinazione Europeo è diminuito significativamente a 15,4 $/t rispetto ai 44,9 $/t del secondo trimestre
La produzione di idrocarburi si prevede sia 2,4 Mboe/d, con il progetto Mero 2 in Brasile che sta aumentando. I risultati di Esplorazione e Produzione probabilmente rifletteranno prezzi dei liquidi più bassi compensati da prezzi del gas più elevati. Si prevede che i risultati del GNL integrato supereranno il miliardo di dollari. I risultati della divisione Downstream sono previsti in calo drasticamente a causa di margini di raffinazione più bassi.
TotalEnergies ha publicado sus principales indicadores e información financiera estimada para el tercer trimestre de 2024. Los puntos clave incluyen:
- El precio del crudo Brent promedió 80,3 $/b, una disminución desde $85,0/b en el segundo trimestre de 2024
- El precio promedio de los líquidos fue 77,0 $/b, por debajo de los $81,0/b en el segundo trimestre
- El precio promedio del gas aumentó a 5,78 $/Mbtu desde 5,05 $/Mbtu en el segundo trimestre
- El Margen de Refinación Europeo cayó significativamente a 15,4 $/t desde $44,9/t en el segundo trimestre
Se espera que la producción de hidrocarburos sea de 2,4 Mboe/d, con el proyecto Mero 2 en Brasil en aumento. Los resultados de Exploración y Producción probablemente reflejarán precios más bajos de líquidos compensados por precios más altos de gas. Se anticipa que los resultados de GNL integrado superen los 1.000 millones de dólares. Se espera que los resultados de Downstream disminuyan drásticamente debido a menores márgenes de refinación.
TotalEnergies가 2024년 3분기 주요 지표 및 추정 재무 정보를 발표했습니다. 주요 사항은 다음과 같습니다:
- 브렌트 유가가 평균 80.3 $/b로, 2024년 2분기의 85.0 $/b에서 하락했습니다.
- 평균 액체 가격은 77.0 $/b로, 2분기의 81.0 $/b에서 감소했습니다.
- 평균 가스 가격은 2분기의 5.05 $/Mbtu에서 5.78 $/Mbtu로 증가했습니다.
- 유럽 정제 마진 지표가 2분기의 44.9 $/t에서 15.4 $/t로 크게 하락했습니다.
탄화수소 생산량은 2.4 Mboe/d가 될 것으로 예상되며, 브라질의 메로 2 프로젝트가 증가세에 있습니다. 탐사 및 생산 결과는 액체 가격 하락으로 반영될 가능성이 있으며, 이는 가스 가격 상승으로 상쇄될 것입니다. 통합 액화천연가스(LNG) 결과는 10억 달러를 초과할 것으로 예상됩니다. 다운스트림 결과는 낮아진 정제 마진으로 인해 급격히 감소할 것으로 예상됩니다.
TotalEnergies a publié ses principaux indicateurs et informations financières estimées pour le troisième trimestre 2024. Les points essentiels incluent :
- Le prix du brut Brent a été en moyenne de 80,3 $/b, en baisse par rapport à 85,0 $/b au 2ème trimestre 2024
- Le prix moyen des liquides était de 77,0 $/b, en baisse par rapport à 81,0 $/b au 2ème trimestre
- Le prix moyen du gaz a augmenté à 5,78 $/Mbtu contre 5,05 $/Mbtu au 2ème trimestre
- Le Marge de Raffinage Européenne a chuté de manière significative à 15,4 $/t contre 44,9 $/t au 2ème trimestre
La production d'hydrocarbures est prévue à 2,4 Mboe/d, le projet Mero 2 au Brésil étant en pleine expansion. Les résultats d'Exploration & Production refléteront probablement des prix des liquides plus bas compensés par des prix du gaz plus élevés. Les résultats du GNL intégré devraient dépasser 1 milliard de dollars. Les résultats en aval devraient connaître une forte baisse en raison de marges de raffinage plus faibles.
TotalEnergies hat seine wichtigsten Indikatoren und geschätzten Finanzinformationen für das dritte Quartal 2024 veröffentlicht. Die wichtigsten Punkte sind:
- Der Preis für Brent-Öl lag im Durchschnitt bei 80,3 $/b, ein Rückgang von 85,0 $/b im 2. Quartal 2024
- Der Durchschnittspreis für Flüssigkeiten betrug 77,0 $/b, ein Rückgang von 81,0 $/b im 2. Quartal

- Der europäische Raffinationsmargenmarker fiel deutlich auf 15,4 $/t von 44,9 $/t im 2. Quartal
Die Erdöl- und Erdgasproduktion wird voraussichtlich 2,4 Mboe/d betragen, wobei das Projekt Mero 2 in Brasilien an Fahrt gewinnt. Die Ergebnisse von Exploration & Produktion werden voraussichtlich niedrigere Flüssigpreise zeigen, die durch höhere Gaspreise ausgeglichen werden. Die integrierten LNG-Ergebnisse werden voraussichtlich 1 Milliarde Dollar übersteigen. Die Ergebnisse im Downstream-Bereich werden voraussichtlich aufgrund niedrigerer Raffinationsmargen stark zurückgehen.

Insights
TotalEnergies' Q3 2024 indicators present a mixed picture. The Brent crude price dropped to $80.3/b from $85.0/b in Q2, potentially impacting revenues. However, average gas prices increased to $5.78/Mbtu from $5.05/Mbtu, which could partially offset the oil price decline.
The most significant change is the sharp decrease in the European Refining Margin Marker to $15.4/t from $44.9/t in Q2. This substantial drop will likely lead to a significant decline in downstream results, affecting overall profitability.
Hydrocarbon production remains stable at 2.4 Mboe/d, supported by the Mero 2 project in Brazil. The Integrated LNG segment is expected to perform well, with results above $1 billion despite lower production due to maintenance issues.
The company's sensitivity to oil prices (
The Q3 2024 indicators reveal shifting dynamics in the energy market. The narrowing spread between average LNG prices ($9.91/Mbtu) and European gas prices ($5.78/Mbtu) suggests potential pressure on LNG margins. However, TotalEnergies' integrated model allows it to benefit from higher gas prices, partially offsetting lower oil prices.
The dramatic fall in the European Refining Margin Marker is a red flag for the downstream sector. This could indicate oversupply or weakening demand in refined products, which may persist if economic growth slows. The company's ability to navigate this challenging refining environment will be crucial.
The resilience of the Integrated Power segment, expected to perform in line with Q2, highlights the importance of TotalEnergies' diversification strategy. As the energy transition progresses, the stability of this segment could become increasingly valuable to investors.
The unplanned shutdowns at Ichthys LNG and disruptions in Libya underscore the operational risks in the energy sector. TotalEnergies' global portfolio helps mitigate these risks, but investors should remain aware of geopolitical and technical challenges affecting production.

Main elements impacting the quarter aggregates
-
Hydrocarbon production is expected to be at 2.4 Mboe/d, thanks to the ramp up of the Mero 2 project in
Brazil that partially offsets unplanned shutdowns in Ichthys LNG and security-related disruptions inLibya . Exploration & Production results are expected to reflect the decrease in liquid prices compensated by an increase in gas prices. -
Integrated LNG results are expected to be above
, in a context of low market volatility and a decrease in production due to unplanned maintenance on Ichthys LNG.$1 billion - Integrated Power results are expected to be broadly in line with the second quarter.
-
Downstream results are expected to sharply decrease given much lower refining margins in
Europe and in the Rest of the World.
