石油设备网讯 据世界天然气网站4月2日消息 日本企业集团东芝公司已将其在美国液化天然气业务中的东芝美国液化天然气公司已发行股份出售给中国新奥生态控股股份有限公司。

东芝周一表示,股份转让将于2019年4月或之后不久进行。

两家公司于2018年11月初就转让事宜签订了购销协议,预计转让将于3月完成。

该公司补充说,东芝集团将退出与在美国购买和销售液化天然气有关的所有业务。

根据转让协议,东芝集团与美国液化天然气销售相关的所有合同,包括东芝与客户之间的合同,将转让给新奥集团或取消。

至于交易的财务部分,新奥将支付1500万美元的转让费。此外,东芝能源系统及解决方案公司将向买方支付8.21亿美元。

值得注意是,这家日本企业集团决定放弃其在美国的液化天然气资产,因为根据一项20年期的协议,无法找到在德克萨斯州自由港液化天然气终端预订的220万吨液化天然气的买家。

东芝已就退出液化天然气业务收取8.18亿美元的费用,并表示此举是为了避免进一步的损失。

Toshiba pushes back US LNG business sale

Japanese conglomerate Toshiba Corporation has pushed back the transfer of outstanding shares of its US LNG business Toshiba America LNG Corporation to China’s ENN Ecological Holdings.

Toshiba said on Monday that the transfer of the shares would occur in April 2019 or shortly after that.

The companies concluded a purchase and sales agreement for the transfer in early November 2018and the completion of the transfer was expected to occur in March.

The company added that Toshiba Group would withdraw from all business related to the purchase and sale of LNG in the US.

Under the transfer agreement, all contracts related to the sale of US LNG entered into by the Toshiba Group, including those between Toshiba and customers will either be transferred to ENN or canceled.

As for the financial part of the deal, ENN will pay $15 million for the transfer. Also, Toshiba Energy Systems & Solutions Corporation will pay $821 million to the buyer.

It is worth reminding that the Japanese conglomerate decided to part with its US LNG assets following the inability to find buyers for the 2.2 million tons of LNG booked at the Freeport LNG terminal in Texas, under a 20-year deal.

Toshiba has already booked an $818 million charge for exiting the LNG business and stated that the move was to avoid further losses.
