中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社11月27日报道,全球独立储罐公司Vopak周二表示,随着南亚国家转向液化天然气进口以遏制能源短缺,它将增加其在巴基斯坦的液化天然气(LNG)基础设施的股份。 Vopak表示将收购Elengy Terminal Pakistan Ltd的44%股权,该公司的子公司拥有南亚国家首个液化天然气(LNG)进口设施。 Vopak在一份声明中表示,此次收购将涉及与国际金融公司(IFC)和Engro公司的单独交易,并包括该公司表示将在7月份购买的29%的股份。 该购买受到监管和股东批准等条件的限制,预计将在明年第一季度完成。 Elengy终端巴基斯坦子公司Engro Elengy 终端拥有一个液化天然气设施,位于巴基斯坦的卡西姆港,毗邻Engro Vopak化学终端。 该设施自2015年开始运营,是巴基斯坦第一座液化天然气进口设施。 “巴基斯坦是一个人口超过2亿的市场,能源需求不断增长,预计天然气的份额将增加,”Vopak说。 “天然气主要用于为不断增长的人口,工业用途和作为肥料原料的电力供应。” 交易完成后,Elengy终端巴基斯坦的股东将是Engro和Vopak。 李方征 编译自 路透社 原文如下: Vopak expands equity in LNG infrastructure in Pakistan Global independent tank storage company Vopak said on Tuesday it will increase its stake in liquefied natural gas (LNG) infrastructure in Pakistan, as the South Asian country turns to LNG imports to curb energy shortages. Vopak said it will acquire a 44 percent stake in total in Elengy Terminal Pakistan Ltd, whose subsidiary owns the South Asian nation’s first liquefied natural gas (LNG) import facility. The acquisition will involve separate transactions with International Finance Corp (IFC) and Engro Corp and includes a 29 percent stake the company said it would buy in July, Vopak said in a statement. The purchase is subject to conditions including regulatory and shareholder approvals, and is expected to close in the first quarter of next year, it said. Elengy Terminal Pakistan’s subsidiary Engro Elengy Terminal owns an LNG facility which is located at Port Qasim in Pakistan, adjacent to the Engro Vopak chemical terminal. The facility has been in operation since 2015 and is the first LNG import facility in Pakistan. “Pakistan is a market with more than 200 million people and has a growing energy demand in which the share of gas is expected to increase,” Vopak said. “Gas is mainly used for power supply for the growing population, industrial usage and as feedstock for fertilizers.” Once the transaction is completed, Elengy Terminal Pakistan’s shareholders will be Engro and Vopak.
