據(jù)原油新聞4月26日消息稱，知情人士說，沙特阿美正考慮出售其龐大天然氣管道網(wǎng)絡的部分股權，以幫助釋放現(xiàn)金，并吸引更多國際投資者進入該國。

　　知情人士說，這家國有能源生產(chǎn)商正在就這一可能的舉措進行初步討論，由于信息是保密的，要求不具名。上述知情人士表示，根據(jù)交易的結(jié)構，任何交易都可能為總部位于達蘭的沙特阿美籌集數(shù)十億美元。

　　在沙特吸引外國投資、實現(xiàn)經(jīng)濟多元化的努力中，沙特阿美走在了前列。本月早些時候，該公司表示，將向EIG Global Energy Partners牽頭的財團出售其石油管道部門的股份，將籌資逾120億美元。

　　彭博新聞社上周報道，該公司還在對上游業(yè)務進行戰(zhàn)略評估，可能會向外部投資者介紹其部分油氣資產(chǎn)。沙特阿美公司董事長Yasir Al-Rumayyan已開始出售非核心資產(chǎn)的股權，以幫助維持該公司750億美元的股息，其中大部分流向沙特政府。

　　沙特阿美的主天然氣系統(tǒng)是一個管道網(wǎng)絡，將其生產(chǎn)與整個王國的加工場所連接起來。根據(jù)沙特阿美的年度報告，該基礎設施目前的產(chǎn)能約為96億立方英尺/天。

　　Aramco Weighs Sale of Stake in Natural Gas Pipelines

　　Saudi Aramco is considering the sale of a stake in its vast natural gas pipeline network to help free up cash and draw more international investors to the kingdom, people familiar with the matter said.

　　The state-owned energy producer is holding preliminary discussions on the potential move, the people said, asking not to be identified because the information is private. Any deal could raise billions of dollars for Dhahran-based Aramco depending how a transaction is structured, according to the people.

　　Aramco is at the forefront of Saudi Arabia’s drive to attract foreign investment and diversify its economy. Earlier this month, it said it would raise more than $12 billion selling a stake in its oil-pipeline unit to a consortium led by EIG Global Energy Partners.

　　The company is also conducting a strategic review of its upstream business in a move that could see it introduce external investors to some of its oil and gas assets, Bloomberg News reported last week. Aramco Chairman Yasir Al-Rumayyan has started selling stakes in non-core assets to help maintain the company’s $75 billion dividend, most of which goes to the Saudi government.

　　Aramco’s Master Gas System is a network of pipelines connecting its production with processing sites throughout the kingdom. The infrastructure has a current capacity of about 9.6 billion cubic feet per day, according to Aramco’s annual report.?
