(彭博社)——埃克森美孚公司的老板周一表示,尽管已就雪佛龙公司与赫斯公司 520 亿美元的合并提议提起仲裁,但该公司没有兴趣直接收购赫斯公司。

埃克森美孚首席执行官达伦·伍兹周一在标普全球会议 CERAWeek 上表示,“如果我们有兴趣与赫斯合作,我们就不会等待雪佛龙签署协议”。

但伍兹表示,埃克森美孚希望保留考虑在未来某个时候购买赫斯在圭亚那海上油田30%股份的权利。

他补充说,埃克森美孚在仲裁案中的目标有三个:“确保并确认”其优先购买权,“了解”雪佛龙交易所隐含的股权价值,以及“评估”重视并做符合埃克森美孚股东利益的事情。”

(Bloomberg) – The boss of Exxon Mobil Corp. said Monday that it has no interest in buying Hess Corp. outright, despite taking Chevron Corp. to arbitration over its proposed $52 billion merger with the other company.

“If we were interested in doing something with Hess, we wouldn’t have waited for Chevron” to sign its deal, Exxon Chief Executive Officer Darren Woods told the CERAWeek by S&P Global conference Monday.

But Exxon wants to reserve the right to consider buying Hess’s 30% stake in offshore Guyana oil fields at some point in the future, Woods said.

Exxon’s aims in its arbitration case are threefold, he added: to “secure and confirm” its pre-emption rights, to “understand” the value of the stake implied by the Chevron deal, and to “evaluate that value and do what’s in the interests of Exxon Mobil shareholders.”
