据油价网8月3日消息称，消息人士对路透表示，随着油价上涨，包括沙特阿美和阿布扎比国家石油公司在内的中东最大的国有石油公司考虑向投资者出售更多资产，以变现其在各种下游和上游业务中的股份。
两名知情人士对路透表示，沙特阿拉伯石油巨头沙特阿美考虑出售部分上下游资产，包括天然气管道以及炼油厂和发电厂的股份。
今年早些时候，彭博社援引知情人士的话报道称，根据与沙特签署的长达十年的特许经营协议，沙特阿美运营着沙特所有上游油气资产。该公司正在评估其上游业务，并可能决定向外部投资者出售一些非战略性领域的股权。
沙特阿美今年已经达成了一项重大资产出售交易——以124亿美元的价格将其管道业务49%的股份出售给了美国EIG全球能源伙伴牵头的财团。
沙特阿美总裁兼首席执行官Amin Nasser在6月交易结束时表示:“我们计划继续探索利用我们行业领先能力的机会，并吸引合适类型的投资到沙特阿拉伯。”
知情人士对路透表示，在阿联酋，ADNOC正准备为其钻井业务进行首次公开募股(IPO)，旨在吸引外国投资者。
ADNOC已经通过能源资产交易筹集了数十亿美元资金，其中包括去年以100亿美元出售其天然气管道49%的股份。此次出售标志着海湾石油生产商开始出售资产，这些生产商正寻求筹集现金并吸引投资者。
据路透社消息，阿曼和巴林也在寻求通过股权出售或IPO将资产货币化。
今年4月，彭博社报道称，阿曼政府公司正在考虑几种方案，以填补扩大的预算缺口，包括通过首次公开募股(IPO)出售国有石油公司OQ的股份。
据报道，OQ还打算出售资产，并利用国际债务市场，为未来5年计划的79亿美元支出提供资金。

Saudi Aramco, UAE’s ADNOC Plan New Asset Sales
The biggest state-held oil firms in the Middle East, including Saudi Aramco and the Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC), consider selling more assets to investors to monetize stakes in their various downstream and upstream businesses as prices rise, sources have told Reuters.
Saudi Arabia’s giant Aramco considers sales of part of upstream and downstream assets, including its gas pipelines and stakes in refineries and power plants, two sources with knowledge of the plans told Reuters.
Earlier this year, Bloomberg reported, quoting sources familiar with the matter, that Aramco, which operates all upstream oil and gas assets in Saudi Arabia under a multi-decade concession deal with the Kingdom, was reviewing its upstream business and could decide to sell stakes in some not-so-strategic fields to external investors.
Aramco has already made one major asset sale deal this year—it sold a 49-percent stake in its pipeline business to a consortium led by U.S. EIG Global Energy Partners for $12.4 billion.
“We plan to continue to explore opportunities to capitalize on our industry-leading capabilities and attract the right type of investment to Saudi Arabia,” Aramco’s president and chief executive Amin Nasser said at the closing of the deal in June.
In the UAE, ADNOC is getting ready for an initial public offering (IPO) of its drilling business and aims to attract foreign investors to it, sources with knowledge of the deal told Reuters.
ADNOC has already raised billions of U.S. dollars from energy asset deals, including the sale of a 49-percent stake in its gas pipelines last year, for $10 billion. This sale marked the start of asset sales from Gulf oil producers, who are looking to raise cash and attract investors.
According to Reuters’ sources, Oman and Bahrain are also looking to monetize assets via stake sales or IPOs.
In April this year, Bloomberg reported that the government of Oman was looking at several options to plug the widened budget hole, including selling a stake in state oil firm OQ via an initial public offering (IPO).
OQ is also reportedly looking to sell assets and tap the international debt market in order to fund its planned $7.9 billion expenditures over the next five years.
