Engie Sells 50% of TAG to Canadian Fund CDPQ, Increasing Subsidiary Leverage and Attracting Attractive Investment Options.

Engie made an important announcement this Thursday (12/28) by selling 15% of the Transportadora Associada de Gás (TAG) to Caisse de Dépôt et Placement du Québec (CDPQ) for R$ 3 billion. With this transaction, the Canadian fund and the French group now have the same stake in the company.

‘The partial divestment in TAG is an attractive option to implement an asset rotation, at a time when the Company has a solid pipeline of projects underway, without increasing pressure on the leverage, ratings and payout of the Company’, explained Eduardo Takamori, Chief Financial Officer and Investor Relations Director of Engie Brasil Energia.

The negotiation represents a significant increase in the valuation of the transporter compared to 2020, when Engie purchased the remaining 10% from Petrobras for R$ 1 billion at the time (R$ 1.4 billion adjusted).

The partial divestment in TAG is an attractive option to implement an asset rotation, at a time when the Company has a solid pipeline of projects underway, without increasing pressure on the leverage, ratings and payout of the Company’, explained Eduardo Takamori, Chief Financial Officer and Investor Relations Director of Engie Brasil Energia.

Petrobras sold 90% of TAG in 2019 to Engie and CDPQ for R$ 8.6 billion at the time (R$ 11.2 billion adjusted).

TAG, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Engie, has the largest natural gas transportation network in Brazil, with a pipeline infrastructure of approximately 4,500 km, located along part of the Southeast and Northeast coast of the country, as well as a stretch that connects Urucu to Manaus (AM) in the North region.

Attractive Option

The oldest tree in the world, alive since before the birth of Jesus Christ, is cut down in a scientific study and the case changes environmental preservation rules.

Seen from space, an image taken by an astronaut shows an unlikely oasis in the Saudi Arabian desert, protected by a terrain that slows the advance of sand, surrounded by green circles, remnants of an extinct lake and nearly 10,000 years of preserved history.

While in Brazil a 10-story building takes 2 years to complete, in China a company stacks pre-fabricated modules and raises the entire building in just 28 hours and 45 minutes.

An entire island in the Pacific wants to surround itself with a colossal barrier against the ocean to try to escape increasingly violent waves and not be swallowed by the sea in the coming decades.

After ten days orbiting the Moon, science confirms that the astronauts of the Artemis II mission return with altered bodies.

With 7.4 trillion tons of artificial snow pumped in 10 years, an extreme operation could stabilize the West Antarctic ice sheet and prevent a sea level rise of more than 3 meters, but it would require snow cannons, ocean water, and energy on an almost industrial scale at the end of the world.

Peru built a tunnel at an altitude of 4,738 meters cutting through the Andes Mountains, and the road leading to it reaches 4,818 meters, making it the highest paved road in the entire world.

Road at 4,173 meters in Pakistan only opens 4 months a year.

The bulb does not need to be replaced: an accessory compatible with any type of socket is starting to arrive in Brazilian homes and transforms ordinary light points into smart lighting without breaking walls, without renovations, and without rewiring the electrical installation.

Artemis II astronauts reveal incredible experience 252,000 miles from Earth, praise NASA technology, but admit to a scary moment during high-speed reentry.

A study reveals that climbers who reach the summit of Everest breathe only 30% of the oxygen available at sea level and may return with atrophy of the cerebral cortex, concentration difficulties for weeks, and possible neurological damage associated with extreme altitude.

Brazil becomes a member of the IEA and could become a protagonist in ocean energy by accessing advanced technologies, attracting international capital, and accelerating the transformation of the energy matrix.

Iran said that the Strait of Hormuz is open, but in practice only 1 non-Iranian oil tanker managed to cross in 24 hours — before the blockade, 100 ships passed per day.

Petrobras completes 1,300 hours of work and 15 km of subsea lines to connect the Búzios 90 well to the P-79 — the platform is ready to produce 180,000 barrels per day and is just awaiting ANP approval.

Iran declares the Strait of Hormuz completely open this Friday, and the price of oil plummets nearly 10% in a few hours — the largest drop since the beginning of the conflict.

While the world was paying more for fuel, the 100 largest oil companies on the planet raked in an extra $23 billion in just 30 days of blockage in the Strait of Hormuz.

Petrobras buys 75% of Oranto and becomes the operator of block 3 in São Tomé and Príncipe, resuming its strategy in Africa to diversify its portfolio and replenish oil and gas reserves.
