Sapura Energy Offloads 50% SapuraOMV Stake to TotalEnergies for RM3.4b
Sapura Energy Bhd has agreed to sell its entire 50% stake in SapuraOMV Upstream Sdn Bhd, an exploration and production (E&P) unit, to TotalEnergies Holdings SAS for US$705.3 million (RM3.37 billion).
薩普拉能源有限公司已同意以7.053億美元（33.7億令吉）的價格將其在勘探和生產（E＆P）部門SapuraOMV上游私人有限公司的全部50％股份出售給TotalEnergies Holdings SAS。
The transaction comprises US$530.3 million in cash and US$175 million in debt relief.
該交易包括5.303億美元的現金和1.75億美元的債務減免。
Through its subsidiary, Sapura Upstream Assets Sdn Bhd (SUA), Sapura Energy entered a conditional sale and purchase agreement (SPA) with TotalEnergies for the divestment.
薩普拉能源通過其子公司Sapura上游資產私人有限公司（SUA）與TotalEnergies簽訂了撤資的有條件買賣協議（SPA）。
SUA will receive the cash consideration of US$530.3 million (about RM2.53 billion), and Sapura Energy will be relieved of a US$175 million debt obligation related to a financing facility extended by OMV Exploration & Production GmbH (OMV E&P) to SapuraOMV.
SUA將獲得5.303億美元（約合25.3億令吉）的現金對價，而薩普拉能源公司將免除與OMV勘探與生產有限公司（OMV E&P）向SapuraOMV提供的融資計劃相關的1.75億美元債務。
Consequently, the total disposal consideration amounts to US$705.3 million.
因此，處置對價總額爲7.053億美元。
The completion of the acquisition, subject to regulatory approvals and customary closing adjustments, is expected no later than the second half of 2025.
此次收購將視監管部門的批准和慣例成交調整而定，預計不遲於2025年下半年完成。
However, both Sapura Energy and TotalEnergies are committed to expediting the transaction's completion by year-end.
但是，Sapura Energy和TotalEnergies都承諾在年底之前加快交易的完成。
This divestment aligns with Sapura Energy's restructuring efforts to manage its debt and outstanding payables.
此次撤資與Sapura Energy爲管理其債務和未償應付賬款而進行的重組努力一致。
The net disposal proceeds, expected to result in a gain of approximately RM793 million, will primarily be used to settle amounts owing to Sapura Energy's relevant scheme creditors.
淨處置收益預計將帶來約 RM793 百萬美元的收益，將主要用於結算欠薩普拉能源相關計劃債權人的款項。
"We are pleased with the outcome of this divestment, which we believe is fair and equitable," said Sapura Energy group CEO Datuk Mohd Anuar Taib in a statemento.
薩普拉能源集團首席執行官拿督莫哈末阿努爾·塔伊布在一份聲明中說：“我們對這次撤資的結果感到滿意，我們認爲這是公平和公平的。”
"With full ownership of SapuraOMV, we are confident that TotalEnergies will provide the right focus to further develop the growth potential of its assets. This portfolio rationalisation marks our strategic shift away from the E&P business, as we enhance our core capabilities to deliver innovative solutions to the dynamic energy industry," he added.
“有了SapuraOMV的全部所有權，我們相信TotalEnergies將爲進一步開發其資產的增長潛力提供正確的重點。這種投資組合合理化標誌着我們從勘探與生產業務的戰略轉移，因爲我們增強了爲動態能源行業提供創新解決方案的核心能力，” 他補充說。
Sapura Energy's remaining core business segments include engineering and construction, drilling, and operations and maintenance, supported by a collective order book of about RM6.6 billion.
Sapura Energy的其餘核心業務領域包括工程和建築、鑽探以及運營和維護，由約66億令吉的總訂單支持。
Despite the divestment, SapuraOMV retains interests in block SK408 and block SK310 offshore Sarawak and holds exploration licenses across various strategic regions.
儘管進行了撤資，但SapuraOMV仍保留了砂拉越近海 SK408 區塊和 SK310 區塊的權益，並持有各個戰略地區的勘探許可證。
