SBM Offshore is pleased to announce that it has completed the acquisition of the
shares in the lease and operating entities related to FPSOs N'Goma, Saxi Batuque
and Mondo from its partner Sonangol EP. Simultaneously, SBM Offshore completed
the sale of all its shares in the parent company of the Paenal shipyard in
Angola to a subsidiary of Sonangol EP.
The acquisition of the shares from Sonangol EP brings SBM Offshore's ownership
in the entities owning the FPSOs Saxi Batuque and Mondo to 100% and in the
entity owning the FPSO N'Goma to 80%. The operating companies in Angola will be
wholly owned by SBM Offshore after the acquisition. The total net consideration
paid for the equity ownership of the acquired entities by SBM Offshore and
including the sale of the parent company of the Paenal shipyard is approximately
US$40 million.
In addition, SBM Offshore has signed an MOU with its minority partner (Angola
Offshore Services Limited, "AOSL") in the FPSO N'Goma concerning the purchase by
AOSL of 20% of SBM Offshore's shareholding (80%) in the entity owning the FPSO.
This MOU is conditional on the signature of a share purchase agreement and upon
several conditions precedent, including consent from clients and lenders, and
approval by the various competent authorities.
Through this transaction, SBM Offshore is reorganizing its business in Angola,
focusing on core lease and operate activities and divesting a non-core
construction yard.
