Gaz International Sells Its Siberian Oil Operations to Local Company
ZURICH - Yevgeni Star, a mid-sized Russian oil company, has bought the Siberian oil and gas operations of Zurich-based Gaz International. While no official figures have been released by either firm, the deal is believed to worth in the vicinity of $145 million.
Until recently, Gaz International had been seeking to expand its exploration and refining operations, but it has reportedly been frustrated by local regulatory bodies. Gaz International shares rose by 1 % as news of the sale filtered into the media.
Yevgeni Star, which has some cross-share holdings with large industrial corporations in related and unrelated fields, notably in the energy and shipbuilding sectors, will become one of Russian’s leading players in the vital strategic area of energy supplies.
Explaining the reasons for the sale, Gaz International CEO Fritz Faschier told reporters yesterday, "Our board of directors believes that this is the ideal time to consolidate our operations by concentrating on less-risky investments while at the same time boosting our interests in research and development. I mean, in particular, research into alternative fuels and energy sources. I have no doubt that this deal is in the interests of both parties."
It is known that the deal includes significant technology transfers. A team of Gaz International engineers and administrators will train Yevgeny engineers in the operation of exploration and extraction technology developed by the international giant.
Yevgeny Star operators were also keen to acquire Gaz International’s license to explore and develop northern oil fields until 2015. The current production of 10,000 barrels a day is expected to at least double over the next 5 years.
Due to the complex nature of legal arrangements surrounding the transfer of licenses and technological information, the deal is not expected to be sewn up before January of next year. Approval for the license transfer must be negotiated with Russian authorities while several major Swiss banks will vet the financial arrangements and the details of technology transfer.
According to the article, when will the deal be finalized?
