据世界石油9月8日报道，知情人士透露，Oil & Natural Gas Corp.正在研究从Woodside Petroleum Ltd.手中收购塞内加尔近海价值40多亿美元的Sangomar石油项目的重要少数股权。
知情人士说，国有ONGC正在讨论收购该油田20%至40%的权益，由于此事属于私人性质，这些人士要求不具名。知情人士说，总部位于澳大利亚的Woodside正在与Jefferies Financial Group Inc.就这笔交易进行合作，可能还会吸引其他买家。
据知情人士透露，谈判正在进行中，目前还不确定是否会达成协议。Jefferies和Woodside的代表拒绝置评，ONGC海外投资子公司onGC Videsh Ltd.的发言人没有立即回应置评请求。
Woodside通过一系列股权收购在Sangomar油田建立了自己的地位。今年早些时候，在行使了与ONGC报价相匹配的权利后，收购了FAR Ltd.的参与权益。这使其在该项目中的股份达到82%，其余股份由塞内加尔政府持有。Woodside去年收购了Cairn Energy Plc在Sangomar的股份。
塞内加尔一直吸引着寻找新资源的石油和天然气公司。Cairn于2014年在桑戈马钻了第一口深水井，成为当年全球最大的石油发现之一。随后，位于达拉斯的Kosmos Energy Ltd.从2016年开始发现了一系列重要的海上天然气。
