The strong integrated gas performance helped offset a fall in refining margins, which have posed challenges for energy majors recently.

強勁的綜合天然氣業績有助於抵消煉油利潤下降的影響，而煉油利潤最近為能源巨頭帶來了挑戰。

Earlier this week, BP announced that its third-quarter profits plunged by nearly a third as margins tumbled.

本週早些時候，英國石油公司宣布，由於利潤率大幅下滑，其第三季利潤下降了近三分之一。

Shell also reported that earnings were pushed down by charges relating to redundancies and restructuring.

殼牌還報告稱，與裁員和重組相關的費用導致收益下降。
