据阿拉伯贸易网8月16日利雅得报道，沙特阿拉伯国家石油公司(沙特阿美/Saudi Aramco)时下正与印度信诚工业有限公司(RIL)就收购后者炼油和化学品业务的股份进行深入谈判。
由于信息保密而要求不具名采访的知情人士说，沙特阿美正在讨论以价值约200亿美元至250亿美元的沙特阿美股份收购RIL旗下子公司约20%的股份。
知情人士表示，由印度亿万富翁穆凯什•安巴尼支持的RIL可能最快在未来几周内与沙特阿美达成协议。
彭博社报道此消息后，RIL的股价在孟买证券交易所上涨了2.6%。
如果达成协议，世界上最大的石油出口国和增长最快的能源消费国之间将建立更紧密的联系。
这将结束为期两年多的谈判，并标志着沙特阿美自2019年首次公开募股 （IPO）以来的首笔全股票交易。
同一年，安巴尼证实了一笔隐含股权估值为150亿美元的交易。 据彭博社报道，由于冠状病毒疫情大流行和油价暴跌，讨论被推迟。
这笔交易将有助于RIL为其大型炼油厂锁定稳定的原油供应，并使这家印度公司成为沙特阿美的股东。 根据沙特阿美约1.9万亿美元的市场估值，RIL将获得这家世界最大能源公司约1%的股份。
