据路透社10月31日圣保罗报道，周三提交的一份证券文件显示，巴西国家石油公司将其在尼日利亚的一个油气勘探公司的50%股份以15.3亿美元的价格出售给由顶级石油交易商维多集团领导的财团，这家国有石油公司正在采取最新的减债措施。
巴西国家石油公司的另外50%的股份由巴西投资银行BTG Pactual持有，该公司在周三提交的一份文件中证实了路透社的一份报告，即在考虑出售之前，该公司很可能会保留自己的股份。
作为全球负债最多的石油巨头之一，巴西国家石油公司已将2017年和2018年的资产销售目标定为210亿美元，但到上半年末，该公司仅成功完成了95亿美元的资产出售。
该交易涉及尼日利亚最大、成本最低的两个深水勘探区中的一些区块的股份。据路透社6月报道，总部位于瑞士的维托尔预计将承担最大一部分的投资，预计将花费10亿美元。
总部位于温哥华的非洲石油公司和以非洲为重点的德洛克斯能源公司是该财团的成员。
对巴西国家石油公司业务有直接了解的消息人士周二告诉路透社，该石油公司希望在明年年底之前，通过出售资产获得额外的200亿美元的收入。
