Deal Insight
BP sells 20% in Khazzan to PTTEP for US$2.45 billion
Report summary
BP has agreed to sell a 20% stake in its Block 61 licence in central Oman, containing the giant Khazzan tight gas development. PTTEP, Thailand's national oil company, will buy the stake for up to US$2.59 billion (subject to contingent payments) with a minimum cash payment of US$2.45 billion. BP will retain a 40% stake, and remain as the operator of the project. PTTEP was well placed to make a deal of this nature in the current environment, and it will strengthen its Middle East portfolio through access to a resilient, low carbon, cash generative asset. BP will retain a large 40% stake in the project and the transaction will make a significant contribution to its debt reduction targets.
