据油价网6月15日消息称，数据显示，最近宣布的管道运营商ONEOK和Magellan Midstream Partners的合并是今年迄今为止油气行业最大的一笔交易，价值188亿美元，是4月份最大交易金额的四倍多。

这两家主要的管道运营商在5月中旬表示，ONEOK将以现金加股票的方式收购Magellan Midstream Partners，交易价值188亿美元，合并后的美国油气管道巨头企业总价值将达到600亿美元。

该交易预计将于2023年第三季度完成，已获得两家公司董事会的一致批准。交易的完成取决于惯例成交条件，包括ONEOK股东和Magellan单位持有人的批准以及法案批准。

5月份油气行业的第二大交易是雪佛龙以63亿美元收购页岩气公司PDC Energy，交易价格为全股票交易，合每股72美元。包括债务在内，该交易的总企业价值为76亿美元，这可能标志着美国页岩领域的交易加速。

自4月份有报道称埃克森美孚可能收购先锋自然资源公司以来，市场一直在期待石油巨头达成协议。

The Biggest Oil And Gas Deal Of The Year So Far

The recently announced merger of pipeline operators onEOK and Magellan Midstream Partners is the biggest deal in the oil and gas sector so far this year, with the $18.8-billion value more than fourfold higher than the biggest deal in April, data has shown.

The two major pipeline operators said in the middle of May that onEOK would buy Magellan Midstream Partners in a cash-and-stock deal valued at $18.8 billion, creating a combined U.S. oil and gas pipeline giant with a total enterprise value of $60 billion.

The transaction, expected to close in the third quarter of 2023, has been unanimously approved by the board of directors of both companies. The closing of the transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including the approvals of both onEOK shareholders and Magellan unitholders, as well as Hart Scott Rodino Act clearance.

The second-largest deal in oil and gas in May was Chevron’s agreement to buy shale firm PDC Energy in an all-stock transaction valued at $6.3 billion, or $72 per share. The total enterprise value of the deal, including debt, is $7.6 billion, and this transaction could mark an acceleration of deal-making in the U.S. shale patch.

The market has been expecting a deal from the supermajors since reports emerged in April of talks about ExxonMobil potentially buying Pioneer Natural Resources.
