Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) is reportedly contemplating the sale of a 3–5% stake in Adnoc Gas, according to a report by Bloomberg.
This potential transaction, which could be valued at billions of dollars, may be announced soon.
However, no final decisions have been made and ADNOC may reconsider if market conditions are unfavourable, said the report.
ADNOC Gas CEO Ahmed Mohamed Alebri said: “Over the next five years, we plan to invest $15bn in capex in projects which will enable us to capture opportunities from the forecast increase in domestic and global demand for the lower-carbon gases we produce,” in a separate report by Gulf Business.
In May, ADNOC raised $935m (Dh3.43bn) by selling a 5.5% stake in its drilling unit to institutional investors. Meanwhile, ADNOC Gas has secured a ten-year sales and purchase agreement with GAIL India.
This agreement involves supplying up to 520,000 tonnes per annum of LNG, starting in 2026, reinforcing a previous agreement announced in January.
