France's Total Sells Interest in Pipeline Network
Total has signed an agreement to sell a 30% interest in Société des Transports Pétroliers par Pipelines (Trapil) to Pisto SAS for €260 million (about $290 million).
“The sale of Total’s interest in this infrastructure reflects its active portfolio management strategy. Rather than own infrastructure assets, the Group’s aim is to hold contracts to use such infrastructure when needed to manage its industrial assets. This sale will help us achieve our target of divesting $5 billion in assets over the period 2019-2020,” commented Jean-Pierre Sbraire, Chief Financial Officer of Total.
Following the transaction, which is subject to French regulatory approvals, Total will remain a minority shareholder with an interest of 5.55% and will continue to use Trapil infrastructure under the current terms and conditions to carry products from the Normandy and Grandpuits refineries.
