Petrobras Oil &Gas B.V’s advisors for the sale of its Nigerian assets, Scotiabank et Evercore, have lined up very specific potential buyers.
Except for Russia's Lukoil, only Nigerian merchants approached the Brazilian firm's deal broker with offers. They spoke to Lekoil headed by Samuel Adegboyega and Otakikpo field operator. The last Nigerian firm on line-up is Famfa Oil, owned by the powerful businessman Folorunsho Alakija. Unlike the other two companies, Famfa has a major draw card to pull. It entitles the first refusal, which became the shareholder of the Petrobras block OML 127, covering the giant field Agbami operated by Chevron. According to our sources, Alakija said he is willing to pay $ 2 billion for an additional 8% stake in OML 127 as well as a 16% share in OML 130, where Akpo and Total fields sit Egina. Famfa built her chest in war thanks to Agbami, which produced more than 200,000 bpd since 2008. On the other hand, Petrobras Oil & Gas B.V, a joint venture between Petrobras, Brazilian bank BTG Pactual and American investment fund, Helios Investment Partners, is looking for nearly $ 4 billion for the sale of its entire Nigerian portfolio. This figure, according to Brazilians, shows the fact that production is scheduled to begin at Egina, which should reach 250,000 bpd on the plateau. It is said that Famfa is on the lookout for a financial partner to purchase assets that will add a measure of its revenue source to its belt. Alakija takes strings within his Nigerian and continent network to raise the funds needed to achieve his or her goals.
