据路透社10月18日新德里报道，加拿大的MEG能源公司已经拒绝了赫斯基能源公司收购石油和天然气生产商的要约，称这项提案低估了该公司的价值。
赫兹，MEG的更大竞争对手，本月早些时候提出正式报价，以现金11加元或赫斯基股票0.485的价格购买每股MEG股票，几天后主动提出64亿加元（50亿美元）的收购建议。
“董事会一致认定赫斯基的报价严重低估了普通股，不符合MEG或MEG股东的最佳利益，”MEG在一份声明中表示。
MEG还表示正在探索其他交易，并且“几个战略方”已表示有兴趣参与获取有关其业务的更多信息的流程。
赫斯基的提议是在加拿大石油生产商因运输瓶颈而挣扎，因为产量飙升，推动加拿大重质原油价格接近美国轻质原油的近历史折扣。
赫斯基首席执行官Rob Peabody表示，对MEG的收购反映了加拿大石油公司需要拥有综合资产来管理加拿大原油的深度价格折扣。

Canada's MEG Energy Corp rejects Husky Energy buyout offer
Canada's MEG Energy Corp has rejected Husky Energy Inc's offer to buy the oil and gas producer, saying the proposal undervalued the company.
Husky, MEG's bigger rival, made a formal offer earlier this month to buy each MEG share for C$11 in cash or 0.485 of a Husky share, days after making an unsolicited C$6.4 billion ($5 billion) buyout proposal.
"The board has unanimously determined that the Husky offer significantly undervalues the common shares and is not in the best interests of MEG or MEG shareholders," MEG said in a statement.
MEG also said it was exploring other transactions, and that "several strategic parties" had expressed interest in participating in a process to get more information about its business.
Husky's offer comes at a time when Canadian oil producers have struggled with transportation bottlenecks as output has surged, pushing Canadian heavy crude prices to near-historic discounts to U.S. light crude.
Husky Chief Executive Officer Rob Peabody had said the bid for MEG reflects the need for Canadian oil companies to own integrated assets to manage the deep price discounts on Canadian crude.
