據(jù)油氣新聞7月19日消息稱，據(jù)知情人士周五透露，全球基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施伙伴公司(Global Infrastructure Partners)已準(zhǔn)備出售其在美國第二大液化天然氣(LNG)出口設(shè)施自由港液化天然氣(Freeport LNG)有限合伙企業(yè)的26%股份。

　　據(jù)消息人士透露，這家基礎(chǔ)設(shè)施投資者正在與一家投資銀行合作，以吸引買家的興趣。

　　GIP收購其股份的價格不得而知。在自由港液化天然氣站點開始出口天然氣并產(chǎn)生收入之前，該公司在2014年斥資8.5億美元收購了該股權(quán)。

　　消息人士警告說，不能保證出售會發(fā)生，GIP最終可能會持有股份。由于信息保密，這些消息人士要求匿名。

　　當(dāng)路透社聯(lián)系 GIP 時，GIP 拒絕置評，自由港液化天然氣公司沒有回應(yīng)置評請求。

　　去年，Brookfield資產(chǎn)管理公司從黑石集團(tuán)手中購買了切尼爾能源液化天然氣有限合伙公司的股份。此前，這家加拿大投資公司的一個子公司于2019年以超過20億美元的價格收購了位于馬里蘭州的Cove Point液化天然氣終端25%的股權(quán)。Cove Point是一家主要由道明能源公司擁有的液化天然氣終端。

　　自由港液化天然氣最初的設(shè)想是作為一個進(jìn)口終端，但在美國頁巖氣熱潮開始后，自由港液化天然氣被轉(zhuǎn)變?yōu)橐粋€出口設(shè)施。該公司位于德克薩斯州海岸附近的金塔納島，于2019年開始出口，其3個生產(chǎn)裝置每年提供1500萬噸液化能力。根據(jù)自由港液化天然氣的網(wǎng)站，第四個裝置正在計劃中。

　　Infra fund GIP puts Freeport LNG stake up for sale

　　Global Infrastructure Partners has put up for sale its 26% stake in the limited partnership behind Freeport LNG, the second-largest export facility for liquefied natural gas (LNG) in the United States, sources familiar with the matter said on Friday.

　　The infrastructure investor is working with an investment bank to solicit buyer interest, according to the sources.

　　The price which GIP is seeking for its stake could not be learned. It paid $850 million for the stake in 2014, before the Freeport LNG site began exporting gas and generating revenue.

　　There is no guarantee that a sale will happen, and GIP could ultimately keep hold of the stake, cautioned the sources, who spoke on condition of anonymity as the information is private.

　　GIP declined to comment when contacted by Reuters and Freeport LNG did not respond to a comment request.

　　Last year, Brookfield Asset Management BAMa.TO bought a stake in Cheniere Energy Inc’s LNG.A limited partnership from Blackstone Group Inc BX.N. This came after a unit of the Canadian investment firm paid north of $2 billion in 2019 for a 25% stake in Cove Point, an LNG terminal in Maryland predominantly owned by Dominion Energy Inc D.N.

　　Originally envisioned as an import terminal, Freeport LNG was converted into an export facility once the U.S. shale gas boom took off. Situated on Quintana Island off the Texas coast, exports began in 2019, with its three production units providing 15 million metric tonnes per year of liquefaction capacity. A fourth unit is planned, according to Freeport LNG’s website.
