- PetroChina (NYSE:PTR) says it will spin off part of its transnational gas pipelines business, the latest move in China's strategy to invite outside capital into state-dominated sectors including energy.
- PTR plans to establish a separate company comprising two of its west-east pipelines, which carry natural gas more than 4K km from the central Asian border region of Xinjiang to Shanghai and Guangdong on the east coast; PTR values the assets at $4.7B-$6.3B.
- Rival Sinopec (NYSE:SNP) became the standard bearer for the new policy earlier this year with its $20B plan to sell a minority stake in its gasoline stations and convenience store business.
