美国阿帕奇公司投资成立二叠纪盆地管道公司

中国石化新闻网讯 据路透社休斯顿报道，美国石油生产商阿帕奇公司（Apache）周三宣布，该公司将与投资公司Kayne Anderson合作，在美国最大的页岩油田开展业务。

Apache已经大量投资于自己的二叠纪盆地管道和加工厂，以支持一项重大的石油和天然气发现，这个项目将需要数十年的钻探工作。该公司一直在寻找合作伙伴来承担成本，并在该地区的其它五条管道中入股，以增加其吸引力。

根据交易条款，Apache将为Kayne Anderson的收购提供约10亿美元的资产，在私人投资完成后，这笔资产将有9亿美元的现金。在今年晚些时候交易结束时，Apache将拥有该公司71.1%的股份，该公司将更名为阿尔图斯中流公司(Altus Midstream Co)。

Apache, Kayne Anderson form $3.5 billion Permian basin pipeline firm

U.S. oil producer Apache Corp is putting its West Texas pipeline assets into a joint venture with investment firm Kayne Anderson that will operate in the largest U.S. shale field, the companies announced on Wednesday.

Apache has invested heavily in its own Permian Basin pipeline and processing plants to support a major oil and gas discovery that it projects will require decades of drilling. The firm has been looking for partners to shoulder the costs of the buildout and has taken stakes in five other pipelines in the region to increase its attractiveness.

Under terms of the deal, Apache will contribute about $1 billion in assets to Kayne Anderson Acquisition, which will have $900 million in cash after a private placement is complete. When the deal closes later this year, Apache will own 71.1 percent of the company, which will be renamed Altus Midstream Co.
