Saudi Aramco said Wednesday that it has closed a $15.5 billion
deal with a consortium led by BlackRock Inc. and Hassana Investment
Co. for the partial sale of its natural-gas pipeline business.
The state-owned oil major said in December that it was planning
a lease and leaseback deal, agreeing to sell a 49% stake in
newly-formed subsidiary Aramco Gas Pipelines Company.
Under the deal, the company will keep a 51% majority stake in
the subsidiary, as well as full ownership and operational control
of the pipeline network, it said.
