OMV has decided to pursue negotiations with the Abu Dhabi
National Oil Company to potentially combine their polyolefins
businesses in order to create a global joint company.
The Austrian oil-and-gas major said Friday that the agreement
would include the combination of the Borealis and Borouge
businesses under a jointly-controlled, listed company.
OMV currently owns 75% of Borealis, while Adnoc holds the
remaining 25%. Borouge is 54% owned by Adnoc and 36% by Borealis,
with the remainder listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange.
The transaction would be subject to approvals, including merger
control clearance.
