据路透社5月19日休斯顿报道，知情人士透露，凯雷集团正与三家运营管道和码头的公司进行谈判，拟以6.25亿美元出售其在得克萨斯州科珀斯克里斯蒂原油出口码头25%的股权。
消息人士称，凯雷还在与这三家公司商谈，共同运营从休斯顿到科珀斯克里斯蒂的原油管道。目前还无法立即获知这些公司的身份。
凯雷和其他公司正在努力开设至少8家工厂，从美国墨西哥湾沿岸向全球市场出口美国原油。美国目前的日产量超过1200万桶，超过沙特阿拉伯和俄罗斯。上周，美国原油日出口量创下近340万桶的新纪录。
据消息人士称，最早可能在周五就能与在休斯顿运营工厂的三家公司之一达成交易。
该消息人士还透露，这条合资管道将把原油从休斯顿运往科珀斯克里斯蒂，预计日产量在70万至120万桶之间。
