Fortescue进行重组，调整氢能业务重点
Fortescue restructures, trims focus on hydrogen
澳大利亚矿业公司Fortescue表示，作为为股东实现价值最大化战略的一部分，该公司将在月底前裁员700人，并减少对绿色氢气的关注。
Australian miner Fortescue says it will cut 700 jobs by month-end, and reduce its green hydrogen focus as part of a strategy to maximise value for shareholders.
该公司表示将在全球范围内裁员，但未提供具体细节。Kallanish（开阑商务信息咨询）Power Materials获悉，部分变动包括任命首席财务官、首席运营官和公司秘书。
The company says it will offer redundancies across its global operations, though details were not provided. Part of the changes include the appointment of a chief financial officer, chief operating officer and company secretary,Kallanish Power Materials notes.
该公司表示：“Fortescue坚定不移地致力于成为世界领先的绿色技术、能源和金属公司，并以到2030年实现零排放为目标。公司经历了一个快速增长和转型的时期，作为将金属和能源整合为一个Fortescue的一部分，正在实施简化结构、消除重复和提高成本效率的举措。”
“Fortescue remains resolute in its commitment to be the world’s leading green technology, energy and metals company with a laser focus on achieving Real Zero by 2030,” the firm says. “The company has undergone a period of rapid growth and transition, and as part of bringing together Metals and Energy into One Fortescue, initiatives are being implemented to simplify its structure, remove duplication and deliver cost efficiencies.”
该公司表示，通过保持“精简”，将能够最好地实现其战略，并为股东创造最大价值。
By remaining “lean”, the company says it will be best positioned to deliver on its strategy and generate maximum value for shareholders.
公司创始人兼董事长Andrew Forrest告诉澳大利亚媒体，近期的重点是清洁电力的生产和输配，而不是氢气生产。
Company founder and chairman Andrew Forrest told the Australian media that in the immediate future, focus would be on generating and distributing clean power, rather than hydrogen production.
《澳大利亚金融评论报》援引他的话说：“我们将留在我们知道能够取胜的地方，那就是绿色电力。没有什么比绿色电力更好了。”
“We’re going to stay where we know we can win, and that’s green electricity. Nothing beats green electricity,” he was quoted as saying by theAustralian Financial Review.
Fortescue将取消四个氢气项目的优先权，其中一个项目的目标是在距离南澳大利亚Whyalla钢厂仅16公里处建设一个氢气进口终端。
Fortescue will “deprioritise” four hydrogen projects, including one that aimed to build a hydrogen import terminal just 16km from South Australia’s Whyalla steel mill.
不过，该公司将继续在美国亚利桑那州实施一个绿色氢气项目，并在澳大利亚格拉德斯通附近实施一个耗资1.5亿美元的绿色氢气项目，该项目将于今年开工建设。挪威和巴西的另外两个氢气项目仍在考虑之中。据说前者已接近做出最终投资决定。
The company will however continue a green hydrogen project in Arizona, US, and a $150 million green hydrogen project near Gladstone, Australia, which will start construction this year. Two further hydrogen projects in Norway and Brazil remain under consideration. The former is said to be close to a final investment decision.
Fortescue Future Industries曾计划到2030年每年生产1,500万吨绿色氢气。随着业务重心的调整和业务整合，这一宏伟目标已不再提上日程，但Forrest表示总有一天会实现。
Fortescue Future Industries had planned to produce 15 million tonnes/year of green hydrogen by 2030. With the refocusing and business integration, that ambitious goal is no longer on the agenda, but Forrest suggests it will one day be achieved.
