据钻机地带3月20日报道，穆勒-马士基公司(A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S)终于为其7年前挂牌出售的最后一项主要能源部门资产找到了买家，使其得以完成向纯运输运营商的历史性转型。
总部位于哥本哈根的Maersk供应服务公司告诉彭博新闻社，该公司将以6.85亿美元的价格将Maersk供应服务公司出售给A.P. Moller Holding A/S，这家投资公司由亿万富翁Maersk家族拥有，是Maersk的一个密切相关利益实体。
该公司为海上能源部门提供服务，从锚处理到冰山转向远离石油平台，该公司拥有36艘船只。该公司安装海上风力涡轮机，并帮助即将使用寿命结束的海底能源设施退役。
这家丹麦最大的公司在2016年概述了一项历史性的战略转变，即打破其百年历史的集团结构，并出售其全部四大能源资产。当时，能源资产占集团收入的四分之一，占潜在利润的四分之三以上。相反，马士基将专注于海陆集装箱运输。
由于APMH是马士基的大股东，双方已经从DNB Bank ASA获得了关于价格的独立公平意见，该公司在回复问题的电子邮件中表示。该公司表示，此次出售将使马士基完全专注于综合物流。
Maersk之前曾接近出售Maersk供应服务。2018年，该公司预计将完成一次撤资，估值估计为6亿美元，但最终未能找到买家。
马士基供应服务公司的收入为3.9亿美元，2022年息税前收入为1600万美元。作为新战略的一部分，该部门在2021年将其车队的价值减记了约3亿美元，以专注于更适合绿色转型的资产。
这是APMH在2017年以11.7亿美元收购马士基油轮公司后，收购马士基四家大型能源部门中的第二家。2018年，total energy SE以约74.5亿美元的股票和债务支付收购了马士基石油公司，而马士基钻井公司则在2019年以约36亿美元的价格在证券交易所上市。
拥有880亿美元资产的APMH由Maersk创始人的曾孙Robert Maersk Uggla经营。去年，他成为马士基的董事长。

Maersk Sells Last Major Energy Asset
A.P. Moller-Maersk A/S has finally found a buyer for its last major energy-division asset after putting it up for sale seven years ago, allowing it to complete a historic transformation into a pure transport operator.
It’s selling Maersk Supply Service for $685 million, based on enterprise value, to A.P. Moller Holding A/S, the investment firm owned by the billionaire Maersk family and a closely related entity of Maersk, the Copenhagen-based firm told Bloomberg News.
The company provides services for the offshore energy sector, ranging from anchor handling to redirecting icebergs away from oil platforms, with a fleet of 36 vessels. It installs offshore wind turbines and helps with decommissioning of subsea energy installations that come to the end of their lifespan.
Denmark’s biggest company outlined in 2016 a historic strategic shift to break up its century-old conglomerate structure and sell all its four big energy assets, which at the time made up one quarter of group revenue and more than three quarters of underlying profit. Instead, Maersk would focus on container transport both at sea and on land.
Since APMH is a major shareholder in Maersk, the parties have obtained an independent fairness opinion on the price from DNB Bank ASA, the company said in an emailed reply to questions. The sale will enable Maersk to focus fully on integrated logistics, it said.
Maersk has been close to selling the Maersk Supply Service before. In 2018 it expected to complete a divestment, citing valuation estimates of $600 million, but ultimately failed to find buyers.
Maersk Supply Service had revenue of $390 million and earned $16 million before interest and tax in 2022. The unit wrote down the value of its fleet by about $300 million in 2021 as part of a new strategy to focus on the assets that better fit with the green transition.
It’s the second of Maersk’s four large energy units to be bought by APMH after the investor paid $1.17 billion for Maersk Tankers in 2017. TotalEnergies SE bought Maersk Oil for about $7.45 billion in shares and debt payments in 2018 while Maersk Drilling was spun off in a stock-exchange listing for about $3.6 billion in 2019.
APMH with $88 billion of assets is run by Robert Maersk Uggla, the great-grandson of Maersk’s founder. Last year, Uggla also became the chairman of Maersk.
