石油圈中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社1月8日迪拜报道，在伦敦证券交易所上市的油气勘探和生产公司英国索科国际公司（SOCO International）周一表示，该公司时下正在评估与中东油气公司科威特能源公司的合并。 索科国际公司的声明证实了路透社周一早些时候发表的有关两家公司正在进行合并谈判的报道。 在科威特能源公司的股票在去年未能在伦敦证券交易所完成首次公开募股以后，合并将为科威特能源公司提供一个上市的方式。科威特能源公司希望通过首次公开募股筹集大约1.5亿美元的资金。 拥有大约5亿美元市值的索科国际公司说，与科威特能源公司新组建董事会的讨论是初步的，迄今没有达成任何协议条款。 李峻 编译自 路透社 原文如下： Kuwait Energy In Merger Talks With London-Listed SOCO International SOCO International, an oil and gas exploration and production company listed on the London Stock Exchange, said on Monday it was evaluating a merger with Middle East oil and gas firm Kuwait Energy. Its statement confirmed a Reuters report earlier on Monday that the two companies were in merger talks. A merger would provide a way for the Kuwaiti company to go public after it failed last year to complete an initial public offer of its shares on the London exchange, through which it hoped to raise about $150 million. SOCO, which has a market capitalisation of about $500 million, said discussions with Kuwait Energy’s newly constituted board were preliminary and no deal terms had been agreed.
