中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社10月29日报道，BP仍希望在2019年完成与邦吉（Bunge）的交易，将巴西的糖和乙醇资产合并，这样两家公司就可以继续为2020年共同规划运营业务。 BP生物燃料首席执行官Mario Lindenhayn在圣保罗举行的Datagro糖业大会间隙告诉记者：“我们只是在等待包括中国在内的三个国家的反垄断机构的批准，以便完成交易。目前，公司已经获得了巴西和欧盟的批准，预计今年还会获得其他国家的批准，这是我们的目标。” BP和邦吉在7月份宣布合并他们在巴西的糖和乙醇业务。英国石油公司同意将邦吉7亿美元的债务转移到新合资公司，并向邦吉支付7500万美元的额外现金。合并后的公司将在巴西拥有11家工厂，甘蔗年产量达3200万吨。 Lindenhayn表示，BP认为巴西乙醇消费在未来几年仍有持续增长的机会，尽管全球汽车行业正在转向电气化。 他表示，巴西目前的燃料基础设施(乙醇泵遍布所有州)可能会使使用乙醇的弹性燃料汽车和混合动力汽车在未来几年继续主导市场。 Lindenhayn还表示，他对印度等大型燃料消费国在汽油中添加乙醇的潜力感到乐观，这可能有助于提振全球生物燃料市场。 王佳晶 摘译自 路透社 原文如下： BP still aiming to close Brazil deal with Bunge in 2019 BP Plc is still looking to close its deal with Bunge Ltd to merge sugar and ethanol assets in Brazil in 2019, so the companies can go on to plan their operations together for the new cane season that starts in early 2020. BP’s chief executive for biofuels, Mario Lindenhayn, told reporters on the sidelines of Datagro’s sugar conference in Sao Paulo the oil major was just waiting for the green light of antitrust bodies in three countries, including China, to close the deal. “We already had the approval from Brazil and the European Union, and we are expecting remaining approvals still this year, that is the objective,” Lindenhayn said. BP and Bunge announced in July the deal to merge their Brazilian sugar and ethanol operations. BP agreed to transfer $700 million of Bunge’s debt to the new venture, and make an additional cash payment of $75 million to Bunge. The resulting company will have 11 plants in Brazil and capacity to crush 32 million tonnes of cane per year. Lindenhayn said BP sees an opportunity for continued growth in ethanol consumption in Brazil for years, despite changes in the global auto industry toward electrification. He said he believed the current fuel infrastructure in Brazil, with ethanol pumps spread over all states, makes it likely that flex fuel cars and hybrid vehicles that will use ethanol will continue to dominate the market for years to come. Lindenhayn also said he felt positive regarding the potential for increased ethanol blending in gasoline in large fuel-consuming countries such as India, which could help boost the global market for the biofuel.
