據(jù)管道新聞網(wǎng)7月25日消息稱，周二，印尼國家石油公司和馬來西亞國家石油公司與殼牌公司簽署了一項協(xié)議，以高達6.5億美元的價格收購殼牌公司在馬塞拉天然氣區(qū)塊35%的股份，從而使該項目在拖延多年后得以推進。

兩家公司在印度尼西亞石油協(xié)會會議的簽字儀式上表示，Pertamina Hulu Energi (PHE)將持有該區(qū)塊20%的股份，馬國油旗下Petronas Masela Sdn Bhd將持有該區(qū)塊15%的股份。

殼牌在一份聲明中表示，出售的基本對價為3.25億美元，在對阿巴迪液化天然氣項目做出最終投資決定時，將支付3.25億美元的或有資產(chǎn)。

由日本Inpex公司領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的阿巴迪液化天然氣項目將使用位于馬魯古省Saumlaki離岸150公里（93英里）的馬塞拉區(qū)塊的天然氣，在其峰值時每年生產(chǎn)950萬噸液化天然氣，并將從擬議的終端出口。

殼牌補充說，該交易應(yīng)在第三季度完成，但需滿足幾個條件，包括獲得印尼能源和礦產(chǎn)資源部的監(jiān)管批準。

殼牌天然氣和上游業(yè)務(wù)綜合總監(jiān)表示：“出售馬塞拉公司股份的決定符合我們對資本紀律的關(guān)注。”

印尼國家石油公司首席執(zhí)行官Nicke Widyawati在一份聲明中表示，收購股份的目的是確保國家能源需求有足夠的石油和天然氣供應(yīng)。

她贊揚了上游單位PHE在氣田勘探、開發(fā)和生產(chǎn)方面的經(jīng)驗，包括Badak液化天然氣工廠的運營。

Pertamina, Petronas to Buy Shell's Masela Gas Stake for $650 Million

Indonesia's Pertamina and Malaysia's Petronas signed an agreement with Shell on Tuesday to buy its 35% stake in the Masela natural gas block for up to $650 million, moving the project forward after years of delay.

Pertamina Hulu Energi (PHE) will take 20% and Petronas Masela Sdn Bhd will take a 15% stake in the Indonesian gas block, the companies said at a signing ceremony at the Indonesia Petroleum Association conference.

The base consideration for the sale is $325 million with a contingent amount of $325 million to be paid when the final investment decision is taken on the Abadi LNG project, Shell said in a statement.

Abadi LNG, led by Japan's Inpex Corp., will use gas from the Masela block, located 150 km (93 miles) offshore of Saumlaki in Maluku province, to produce 9.5 million metric tons per year of LNG at its peak which will be exported from the proposed terminal.

The transaction should be completed in the third quarter, subject to several conditions, including regulatory approval from Indonesia's Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources, Shell added.

"The decision to sell our participation in the Masela PSC is in line with our focus on disciplined capital allocation," said Zoe Yujnovich, Shell's integrated gas and upstream director.

Pertamina CEO Nicke Widyawati said in a statement that purchase of the stake was intended to ensure adequate oil and gas supply for national energy needs.

She touted the experience of upstream unit PHE in the exploration, development, and production of gas fields, including its operation of the Badak LNG plant.
