石油设备网讯 据路透社6月3日伦敦报道,英国石油公司(BP)周一表示,已同意将其在埃及苏伊士湾石油特许权的权益出售给位于迪拜的Dragon Oil,交易金额不详。

根据协议条款,Dragon Oil将购买生产和勘探特许权,包括BP在苏伊士湾石油公司(GUPCO)的权益。

路透社上月援引行业和银行业消息人士的话报道称,总部位于伦敦的英国石油公司正接近以6亿多美元的价格将埃及资产出售给Dragon Oil。

BP在一份声明中表示,这笔交易还有待埃及石油和矿产资源部的批准,预计将于2019年下半年完成。

该公司表示,这是BP计划在未来两年内剥离超过100亿美元计划的一部分,但该交易的财务细节尚未披露。

此次出售正值BP将业务重点放在埃及巨大的海上天然气储量上。今年2月,BP在西尼罗河三角洲近海地区开发了Giza / Fayoum油田,预计日产量约为6万桶石油当量。

根据2018年的年度报告,BP在埃及的石油和天然气液体总净产量在2018年达到4.9万桶/天,天然气日产量达到8.78亿立方英尺。

BP首席执行官鲍勃达德利在一份声明中称,"埃及是BP的核心增长和投资地区。"

“在过去的四年里,我们在埃及投资了大约120亿美元—超过我们投资组合中的任何其他地方—我们计划在未来两年再投资30亿美元,”达德利说。

BP agrees to sell Egyptian oil assets to Dubai's Dragon Oil

BP said on Monday it had agreed to sell its interests in the Gulf of Suez oil concessions in Egypt to Dubai-based Dragon Oil for an undisclosed sum.

Under the terms of the agreement, Dragon Oil will purchase producing and exploration concessions, including BP’s interest in the Gulf of Suez Petroleum Company (GUPCO).

Reuters reported last month that London-based BP was nearing the sale of the Egyptian assets to Dragon Oil for over $600 million, citing industry and banking sources.

The deal, which is subject to the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources’ approval, is expected to complete during the second half of 2019, BP said in a statement.

It is part of BP’s plan to divest over $10 billion over the next 2 years, it said, but the deal’s financial details were not disclosed.

The sale comes as BP focuses its operations on Egypt’s vast offshore gas reserves. In February, BP launched the Giza/Fayoum field in the West Nile Delta offshore area which is expected to produce around 60,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day.

BP’s total net production in Egypt reached 49,000 bpd of oil and gas liquids and 878 million cubic feet per day of gas in 2018, according to its 2018 annual report.

“Egypt is a core growth and investment region for BP,” Chief Executive Officer Bob Dudley said in a statement.

“In the past four years we have invested around $12 billion in Egypt – more than anywhere else in our portfolio –– and we plan another $3 billion investment over the next two years,” Dudley said.
