Royal Dutch Shell’s £47bn swoop on BG Group faces potential stumble over asset ownership
By LAURA CHESTERS FOR THE DAILY MAIL
Royal Dutch Shell’s swoop on BG Group will face a series of hurdles including competition fears and questions over the ownership of some of its newly acquired assets.
The £47billion acquisition of BG will make Shell the largest foreign oil company in Brazil – but there are concerns about its assets in the South American nation.
One of Shell’s main reasons to pounce on BG was its large holdings in Brazil. But many of the assets there are owned through joint ventures, which gives the partners first refusal to buy BG’s share in the projects if it is taken over.
The TRUTH will set you FREE.
