Lukoil PJSC said Friday that it will acquire a 9.99%
shareholding in the Shah Deniz natural-gas project offshore
Azerbaijan from Petronas instead of the 15.5% stake previously
announced.
The Russian energy company said the original deal was amended
after negotiations with project partners on the implementation of
pre-emptive rights.
As a result, the transaction value for Lukoil has been reduced
to $1.45 billion from $2.25 billion.
The deal is expected to close in January.
