Total closes Maersk deal to become second biggest North Sea oil, natural gas producer
French oil major Total closed Thursday its $7.5 billion purchase of Denmark's Maersk Oil and Gas in a deal which sees it leapfrog Shell as the second biggest producer in the North Sea.
The acquisition of Maersk from its parent AP Moller-Maersk, first announced in August last year, brings 160,000 b/d of oil equivalent production to Total this year and renews its North Sea portfolio with some big new projects.
Closure of the deal, which sees Total enter Denmark and makes it the second-largest operator in the North Sea behind Norway's Statoil with a projected output of 500,000 boe/d by 2020, follows approval last week from the Danish Energy Agency for the sale.
"First, it illustrates our strategy to build on our strengths and grow our presence in Total's core areas, like the North Sea, to strengthen our leadership there," Total CEO Patrick Pouyanne said in a statement. "Second, it brings high-quality and low-breaken assets, enhancing our worldwide portfolio."
