全球能源市場的主要參與者bp已完成對Bunge持有的bp Bunge Bioenergia 50%股權的收購,該公司是兩家公司成立的合資企業。收購完成后,該實體已更名為 bp Bioenergy,標志著 bp 完全擁有巴西領先的生物燃料生產商之一。
此次收購符合英國石油公司擴大生物能源業務的全球戰略,特別是在巴西,該國是生物燃料市場的主要參與者。 “通過完全擁有 bp Bioenergy,我們正在擴大我們的生物能源業務,以幫助我們利用巴西在生物燃料生產方面的戰略地位,”bp 巴西總裁安德烈斯·格瓦拉·德拉·維加 (Andres Guevara de la Vega) 表示。
bp Bioenergy 在巴西五個州經營著 11 家甘蔗加工廠,每天可生產 50,000 桶乙醇當量。該企業還擁有每年 3200 萬噸甘蔗壓榨能力,擁有員工 9000 多人。
該公司首席執行官 Geovane Consul 強調了此次收購的戰略意義,并指出 bp Bioenergy 目前已做好充分利用巴西可再生能源潛力的準備。該業務計劃擴展到新興生物能源平臺,包括第二代乙醇、可持續航空燃料(SAF)和沼氣。
“由于巴西在可再生能源方面的巨大潛力,特別是在生物能源領域,巴西有很大的機會轉型其能源系統。此次收購增強了 bp Bioenergy 對公司成為綜合能源公司戰略的價值。”Guevara de la Vega 補充道。
bp completes acquisition of bp Bunge Bioenergia, renames it bp bioenergy
bp, a major player in the global energy market, has completed its acquisition of Bunge’s 50% stake in bp Bunge Bioenergia, a joint venture established between the two companies. Following the acquisition, the entity has been renamed bp Bioenergy, marking bp’s full ownership of one of Brazil’s leading biofuel producers.
The acquisition is in line with bp’s global strategy to scale its bioenergy operations, particularly in Brazil, which is a key player in the biofuels market. “By taking full ownership of bp Bioenergy, we are scaling our bioenergy business to help us take advantage of Brazil’s strategic position in biofuels production,” said Andres Guevara de la Vega, president of bp in Brazil.
bp Bioenergy operates 11 sugarcane processing plants across five Brazilian states, with the capacity to produce 50,000 barrels of ethanol equivalent per day. The business also boasts a crushing capacity of 32 million tons of sugarcane annually and employs more than 9,000 people.
The company’s CEO, Geovane Consul, emphasised the strategic significance of the acquisition, noting that bp Bioenergy is now positioned to capitalise on Brazil’s potential in renewable energy. The business plans to expand into emerging bioenergy platforms, including second-generation ethanol, sustainable aviation fuel (SAF), and biogas.
“Brazil has great opportunities to transition its energy system thanks to its vast potential in renewable energies, especially in the bioenergy sector. This acquisition reinforces the value of bp Bioenergy for the company’s strategy of becoming an integrated energy company,” added Guevara de la Vega.
