Statoil to close offices in Turkey
Turkey On May 1, Statoil sold its interests to Malaysia’s Petronas. The divestment included the Shah Deniz production-sharing agreement, the South Caucasus Pipeline Company and its holding company, with a 15.5-percent stake in each. It also sold a 12.4-percent share in the Azerbaijan Gas Supply Company.
Statoil had planned to participate in the sale of Azeri gas to the Turkish market, but has since changed course and will close its contact office in Turkey.
The move mirrors divestments by Total, which sold its share of the Shah Deniz project in May in a move to consolidate its project commitment.
