印度Essar竞购巴西石油巴伊亚炼油厂

据烃加工新闻6月30日消息称，两名知情人士说，印度企业集团Essar集团公司向巴西国家石油公司提出了收购该国第二大炼油厂的约束性要约。

巴西国家控股的石油生产商巴西国家石油公司（Petrobras）已收到至少两份收购要约，收购位于巴伊亚(Bahia)、日产32.3万桶Landulpho Alves的炼油厂Rlam。另一份来自阿布扎比的穆巴达拉投资公司。

如果Essar的竞标成功，这将标志着该集团在巴西的首次亮相。Essar公司的网站显示，该公司已经在能源、基础设施、采矿和服务领域投资了约280亿美元的资产。

在最近给客户的报告中，Bradesco BBI的分析师对位于巴西东北部的巴伊亚州的RLAM炼油厂的估值为25亿美元。

根据巴西国家石油公司的资产出售规定，出价最高的竞标者必须进行一轮延长的谈判，以最终确定合同条款，谈判通常会持续数周。第三位消息人士说，根据结果，可能需要进行最后一轮招标，这有可能改变竞标结果。

India's Essar group places bid for Petrobras' Bahia refinery

Indian conglomerate Essar Group made a binding offer to Brazil’s Petroleo Brasileiro SA to buy the country’s second largest oil refinery, two people with knowledge of the matter said.

Petrobras, as Brazil’s state-controlled oil producer is known, has received at least two offers for the 323,000 barrels per day Landulpho Alves refinery in Bahia, known as Rlam. The other is from Abu Dhabi’s Mubadala Investment Company.

If Essar’s bid is successful, it would mark the group’s debut in Brazil. Essar has invested roughly $28 billion in assets in energy, infrastructure, mining and services, according to the company’s website.

In a recent note to clients, analysts from Bradesco BBI valued the RLAM refinery, based in the northeastern Brazilian state of Bahia, at $2.5 billion.

According to Petrobras’ asset sale rules, the top bidder must enter into an extended round of negotiations, usually lasting several weeks, to finalize contract terms. Depending on the outcome, it may require a final round of bidding which could potentially change the result of the competition, a third source said.
