OMV将斥资45亿欧元增持北欧化工股份

中国石化新闻网讯 据3月6日Hydrocarbon processing报道，奥地利石油公司OMV正准备将其在塑料制造商Borealis的股份增至75%，此次交易价值40亿至45亿欧元(45亿至51亿美元)。

OMV已经持有Borealis36%的股份，其余股份由阿布扎比国家投资者穆巴达拉持有。OMV发言人拒绝对此置评。OMV这次收购39%股份的交易事项已列入周三召开的监事会会议议程，届时将签署收购协议。

该公司一直在将其炼油部门的重点转移到航空燃料和石化产品上，寄希望于市场对航空和塑料产品日益增长的需求。它还把在中东的扩张战略作为一项优先任务来执行。

OMV还将计划出售部分资产，但尚未决定出售的具体明细。

Austria's OMV to spend up to 4.5 B euros on Borealis stake

Austrian oil company OMV is preparing to increase its stake in plastics maker Borealis to 75% in a deal worth between 4 B and 4.5 B euros ($4.5 billion to $5.1 billion), Der Standard newspaper reported on Friday.

OMV already owns 36% of the company, with the remainder held by Abu Dhabi state investor Mubadala.

An OMV spokesman declined to comment.

The deal would involve OMV buying a 39% stake, the newspaper said without identifying sources, adding the transaction is on the agenda for a supervisory board meeting on Wednesday that would have to sign off the purchase.

The Austrian company has been shifting the focus of its refinery division to aviation fuel and petrochemicals, banking on an increasing appetite for air travel and plastic products. It has also made expanding in the Middle East a priority.

OMV is also planning some asset sales but it has not decided what to sell yet, Der Standard said.
