据路透社10月18日雅典报道，有消息人士透露，希腊预计将于下月对其最大的炼油企业希腊石油的多数股权进行最终竞购，此前对该过程做出了关键的监管决定。
该国的私有化机构已将英国-瑞士嘉能可能源公司和瑞士维多控股公司列为希腊石油（希腊和泛欧石油工业控股公司联合出售）50.1%股份的潜在买家。
出售是私有化计划的一部分，雅典和它的贷款机构在8月份结束的国家最后一次救助中达成了协议。该国计划今年从资产销售中筹集20亿欧元（约合23亿美元），明年再筹集30亿欧元。
根据Refinitiv Eikon的数据，泛欧石油持有希腊石油45.5%的股份，希腊政府持有希腊石油35.5%的股份，希腊石油目前的市场价值为21亿欧元。
希腊和泛欧石油希望在出售后各自持有约15%的希腊石油股份。
根据希腊法律，获得公司三分之一以上股份的投资者需要对剩余股份进行招标，除非该公司被私有化，这是希腊石油的情况。
但这位官员表示，证券监管机构的法律顾问认为，由于该股份由国家和私人投资者共同出售，因此需要强制性要约。

Greece expects Hellenic Petroleum bids next month
Greece expects to get final bids for a majority stake in its biggest oil refiner Hellenic Petroleum (HEPr.AT) next month after a key regulatory decision The country’s privatization agency has shortlisted Anglo-Swiss Glencore Energy (GLEN.L) and Switzerland’s Vitol Holding as potential buyers of a 50.1 percent stake in Hellenic that Greece and Paneuropean Oil and Industrial Holdings are jointly selling.
The sale is part of a privatization plan that Athens and its lenders have agreed under the country’s last bailout which ended in August. The country aims to raise 2 billion euros ($2.30 billion) from the asset sales plan this year and another 3 billion next year.
Paneuropean Oil owns 45.5 percent and the Greek government holds a 35.5 percent stake in Hellenic which has a current market value of 2.1 billion euros, according to Refinitiv’s Eikon data.
Greece and Paneuropean Oil want to maintain a stake of about 15 percent each in Hellenic after the sale.
Under Greek law, an investor who acquires more than a third of a company’s shares needs to make a tender offer for the remaining stake unless the company is being privatized, which is the case with Hellenic.
But the securities regulator’s legal advisers have argued that a mandatory offer will be needed since the stake is being sold jointly by the state and a private investor, the official said.
