根据 12 月 16 日发布的新闻稿，Phillips 66计划以 8.65 亿美元的价格将其在墨西哥湾沿岸快线 (GCX) 天然气管道中的 25% 的股份出售给ArcLight Capital Partners的一家附属公司。

预计此次出售将于 2025 年 1 月完成，出售后，该管道的所有权将由 ArcLight 的附属公司和拥有该管道经营权的Kinder Morgan分割。

GCX 管道系统容量为 20 亿立方英尺/天，长 500 英里，连接二叠纪盆地和位于德克萨斯州南部科珀斯克里斯蒂附近的阿瓜杜尔塞枢纽。金德摩根公司10 月宣布，该公司计划将该管道的容量扩大 5.7 亿立方英尺/天。

菲利普斯 66 首席执行官兼董事长马克·拉希尔在新闻稿中表示，此次出售符合菲利普斯 66 强调下游资产的总体战略。

拉希尔表示：“我们投资组合的演变凸显了我们作为领先的综合下游能源供应商的地位，提高了股东价值，并为公司的未来做好了准备。”

据菲利普斯称，该公司 8.65 亿美元的售价相当于基于预期 2025 年 EBITDA 的预估 EBITDA 倍数 10.6 倍。

该公司在声明中表示，出售所得将用于支持 Phillips 66 的战略重点，包括股东回报和减少债务。

Phillips 66 plans to sell its 25% stake in the Gulf Coast Express (GCX) natural gas pipeline to an affiliate of ArcLight Capital Partners for $865 million, according to a Dec. 16 press release.

After the sale, which is expected to close in January 2025, the ownership of the line will be split between ArcLight’s affiliate and Kinder Morgan, which owns the operating interest in the pipeline.

The GCX is a 2 Bcf/d capacity, 500-mile pipeline system that connects the Permian Basin to the Agua Dulce hub in South Texas near Corpus Christi. Kinder Morgan announced in October that the company planned to expand the line’s capacity by 570 MMcf/d.

The sale falls in line with Phillips 66’s overall strategy of emphasizing its downstream assets, said Mark Lashier, Phillips 66 CEO and chairman, in the release.

“The evolution of our portfolio underscores our position as a leading integrated downstream energy provider, enhancing shareholder value and positioning the company for the future,” Lashier said.

According to Phillips, the company’s $865 million sales price represents an estimated EBITDA multiple of 10.6x based on expected 2025 EBITDA.

Proceeds from the sale will support the strategic priorities of Phillips 66, including returns to shareholders and debt reduction, the company said in its statement.
