中國石化新聞網訊 據路透社11月20日倫敦報道,兩個金融消息來源稱,能源生產商NewAge正在尋求出售其在Marine XII石油區塊的股份,該油區位于剛果共和國海岸外,NewAge能源集團(該公司以非洲為重點)和意大利埃尼共同擁有該區塊的特許經營權。 該消息人士稱,該公司已聘請咨詢公司Evercore協助進行此次出售,融資最高可達10億美元。 NewAge在2010年從運營商埃尼那里收購了該油區25%的股份,埃尼擁有65%的股份,剛果國營公司SNPC持有其余的10%。 根據埃尼網站顯示,在Marine XII石油區塊的Nene Marine油田的產量預計達到每天至少14萬桶石油當量。 與中非其他產油國一樣,剛果經濟也在遭受低原油價格的沉重打擊,目前正處于復蘇之中,該國的債務超過了90億美元,超過了國內生產總值(GDP)。這迫使這個非洲國家尋求國際貨幣基金組織的救助。 剛果的債權人,包括大宗商品貿易公司托克和嘉能可公司,都在尋找該國經濟狀況好轉的跡象。 詹曉晶摘自路透社 原文如下: Africa-focused energy producer NewAge to sell Congo field – sources NewAge is seeking to sell its stake in the Marine XII oil block, a concession off the coast of the Republic of Congo that the Africa-focused energy group jointly owns with Italy’s ENI, two financial sources said. The company has hired advisory firm Evercore to help with the sale that could raise up to $1 billion, the sources said. NewAge acquired 25 percent of Marine XII in 2010 from operator ENI, which owns 65 percent. Congolese state company Societé Nationale des Pétroles du Congo (SNPC) holds the remaining 10 percent. Production at the Nene Marine Field in the Marine XII block is expected to reach a minimum of 140,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day, according to ENI’s website. Like other central African oil producers, Congo’s economy is recovering after being hit hard by low crude oil prices as it struggles under the weight of more than $9 billion in debt, which exceeds its gross domestic product (GDP). That forced the African nation to seek a bailout from the International Monetary Fund. Congo’s creditors, including commodity trading houses Trafigura and Glencore Plc, are looking for signs of an improvement in the country’s economic fortunes.?
