海王星能源終止收購愛迪生北海業(yè)務(wù)的交易

據(jù)世界能源新聞5月19日消息稱，油氣公司海王星能源公司終止了從Energean油氣公司收購愛迪生勘探和生產(chǎn)公司在英國和挪威的子公司的協(xié)議。海王星將向Energean支付500萬美元的終止費(fèi)。

這兩家公司去年曾同意海王星能源公司以不超過2.8億美元的價(jià)格收愛迪生勘探和生產(chǎn)公司在北海的資產(chǎn)，此前Energean已同意以不超過8.5億美元的價(jià)格收購意大利能源公司愛迪生的石油和天然氣部門。

海王星公司的收購是建立在Energean公司收購愛迪生勘探和生產(chǎn)公司的基礎(chǔ)上的。海王星原本計(jì)劃收購的資產(chǎn)包括挪威近海的Nova和Dvalin天然氣開發(fā)項(xiàng)目以及在英國的權(quán)益，以及在生產(chǎn)中的斯科特、德福、特爾斯和文洛克油田的權(quán)益。

Energean周二表示，它仍致力于收購愛迪生勘探和生產(chǎn)公司，并正在努力盡快完成交易。

海王星在終止協(xié)議的聲明中表示：“將繼續(xù)尋求其全球發(fā)展項(xiàng)目和其他增長機(jī)會(huì)的可能?！?/span>

Neptune Energy Terminates Deal to Buy Edison's North Sea Business

Oil and gas company Neptune Energy has terminated the agreement to acquire Edison E&P’s UK and Norwegian subsidiaries from Energean Oil and Gas. Neptune will pay a $5 million termination fee to Energean.

The two companies had last year agreed for Neptune to buy Edison E&P North Sea assets for up to $280 million, after Energean had previously agreed to buy the oil and gas division of Italian energy company Edison for up to $850 million.

Neptune's acquisition had been contingent on the closing of Energean's acquisition of Edison E&P. The assets that were supposed to be acquired by Neptune included interests in the Nova and Dvalin gas developments offshore Norway, and in the UK, and interests in the producing Scott, Telford, Tors and Wenlock fields.

Energean said Tuesday it remained committed to its acquisition of Edison E&P, "and is working to complete the transaction as soon as possible."

In its announcement on the termination of the agreement, Neptune said it "will continue to pursue its pipeline of global development projects and other growth opportunities."
