据外媒7月4日消息,两名知情人士表示,印度埃萨集团正考虑出售位于印度西部古吉拉特邦的一座加工能力达到40.5万桶/天的炼油厂,因为这家印度巨头寻求资金减少债务。
埃萨集团上个月与俄国油Rosneft签署了一份初步协议,计划向俄油出售这家位于古吉拉特邦瓦迪纳的炼油厂49%股权,同时俄油将向该炼油厂供应20万桶/天的原油,供应期限为十年。
据一位知情人士称,埃萨集团近来提议俄油买断该炼油厂,并希望本月在圣彼得堡召开的俄罗斯年度经济论坛上签署协议。
俄国油回应公司仍计划购买埃萨石油49%股权,埃萨石油的主要资产就是瓦迪那炼油厂。

India Essar eyes sale of Gujarat refinery
(Reuters) Essar Group is exploring the sale of its 405 MBPd oil refinery in the western state of Gujarat, as the Indian conglomerate seeks funds to reduce its debt, two sources familiar with the matter said.
Essar signed a preliminary deal with Russian state oil major Rosneft last month to sell a 49% stake in the refinery at Vadinar, Gujarat, which Rosneft would also supply with 200 Mbpd of crude for 10 years.
Essar recently proposed to Rosneft the outright sale of the refinery and had hoped to sign a deal at Russia's premier annual economic forum in St Petersburg this month, said a source aware of the matter.
Rosneft, responding to an emailed request for comment, said it still planned to buy a 49% stake in Essar Oil, whose main asset is the Vadinar refinery.
