秋明英国石油公司收购Sibir Energy-Focus Communication
Release Date: 2009-04-23
Moscow, 23rd April 2009 (Focus Communication)- The Board of Russia's energy company Sibir Energy has been notified of larger rival TNK-BP's intention to buy a minority stake at £4.30 per share. The announcement of the fixed price reverse accelerated bookbuild to buy shares in Sibir was made by Credit Suisse International on behalf of TNK-BP.
The bookbuild is a form of offering in the equity capital markets, done very quickly in one or two days. A minimum price and proceeds are generally guaranteed to the firm.
In a statement Sibir noted that this operation did not involve its cooperation and confirmed that no approach has been made by TNK-BP directly to Sibir or to its advisers.
Discussions with credit Suisse International representing TNK-BP are at a very preliminary stage.
