Argentine producer to acquire Sinopec assets: press

In a deal rumoured to be worth $240mn, an Argentine oil and gas company is vaulting to the top of the heap of national producers with the acquisition of a subsidiary of Chinese state-owned Sinopec, the Bloomberg news service reported June 30.

Argentina’s Compania General de Combustibles (CGC) acquired the unit, which Bloomberg reported would make the Argentine company one of the nation’s top five oil and gas producers.
