???? 据彭博新闻社社3月17日阿布扎比报道，知情人士称，阿布扎比国家能源公司（塔卡/Taqa）时下正在考虑出售其旗下的石油和天然气资产的选项，因为这家国有公用事业公司更关注发电。

????知情人士表示，塔卡正在与潜在的顾问进行商谈，因为该公司正在评估一项横跨包括英国和加拿大在内国家的业务。因此事属于私人事务而要求不具名采访的知情人士称，塔卡的石油和天然气投资组合的价值可能远低于其建设成本数十亿美元。

????知情人士称，最终决定尚未做出，可能决定不继续出售。塔卡没有立即回复记者的置评请求。

????塔卡拥有石油资源丰富的阿联酋的首都阿布扎比的电力和供水分配。阿布扎比市政府的目标是将塔卡打造成为地区公用事业龙头企业。去年，阿布扎比制定了一项计划，让塔卡从国有控股公司阿布扎比电力公司获得资产，以换取股份。这笔交易使塔卡的估值超过400亿美元，并使其成为阿联酋最大的上市公司之一。

????由于去年冠状病毒疫情引发的大宗商品价格暴跌，塔卡的石油和天然气业务陷入困境。去年，塔卡的收入为42亿迪拉姆(11亿美元)，较前一年下降31%。利息、税项、折旧和摊销前利润下降71%，至7亿迪拉姆。

????UAE mulls sale of Taqa’s oil and gas assets, focusing on power generation

????Abu Dhabi National Energy Co. is considering options for its oil and gas assets, including a potential sale, as the state-owned utility focuses more on power generation, people familiar with the matter said.

????The company, also known as Taqa, is speaking with potential advisers as it reviews a business that spans countries including the UK and Canada, the people said, asking not to be identified as the matter is private. Taqa’s oil and gas portfolio could be worth substantially less than the billions of dollars it spent to build it, the people said.

????No final decisions have been made and it may decide not to proceed with a sale, the people said. Taqa didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

????Taqa has a monopoly on power and water distribution in Abu Dhabi, capital of the oil-rich United Arab Emirates. The city’s government aims to create a regional utility champion out of the company. Last year, Abu Dhabi orchestrated a plan for Taqa to receive assets from government-owned holding company Abu Dhabi Power Corp., known as ADPower, in return for shares. The deal pushed Taqa’s valuation to more than $40 billion and made it one of the largest listed companies in the UAE.

????The firm’s oil and gas business has struggled because of last year’s coronavirus-triggered slump in commodity prices. In 2020, it made revenue of 4.2 billion dirhams ($1.1 billion), a 31% drop from the previous year. Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization fell 71% to 700 million dirhams.
