Oil trader Vitol and Delonex Energy have quit a consortium that was set to buy a stake in two Nigerian oil fields from Brazil’s Petrobras.
The sale is part of a Petrobras effort to offload $21 billion in assets amid heavy debts and a corruption scandal.
The Petrobras Africa assets include an 8% interest in OML 127, which includes Agbami, and 16% interest in OML 130, which contains Akpo and Egina. A Chevron affiliate operates OML 127, while Total affiliates operate OML 130.
