The United Arab Emirates’ national energy company plans to sell a stake of about 4% of its natural-gas business in an initial public offering that it hopes will raise $2 billion, as Middle East petrostates increase plans to supply Europe.
The Abu Dhabi National Oil Co., or Adnoc, will sell more than 3 billion shares in Adnoc Gas, one of the world’s largest gas-processing entities, on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange on Feb 23. Shares are expected to begin trading on March 13.
