Alfa planea desinversiones energéticas en Perú, México y Estados Unidos

Intel ID : 245306
Synopsis

Alfa (BMV:ALFA), a San Pedro Garza, México-based aluminum head and monoblock manufacturer, announced its plans to sell oil assets of its subsidiaries Alpek (BMV:ALPEK) and Newpek in Peru and the US, reported El Financiero on 14 February 2017, citing Alfa CFO Ramón Leal.

Specifically, Leal note these divestments follow the changes undergone by the energy sector regarding prices and demand, resulting in lower returns for the company.

The executive added the assets in question would be a stake in the Eagle Ford oil field, in Texas, the oil exploration and production business in Peru, and, possibly, contracts in process in San Andrés and Tierra Blanca, Mexico.

Additionally, Alfa will also analyze the sale of Alpek's cogeneration business in Cosoleacaque and a cogeneration project in Altamira, Mexico, said Leal.
