KBR sale to test global LNG market
Halliburton, the largest energy services company in the US and a key LNG contractor, will release details in the next couple of weeks about the future of its KBR business.
The company is likely to announce that some parts of the business will be sold off and a separate company is expected to emerge from the engineering and construction unit that could be worth as much as $6 billion.
Halliburton is pushing forward with a plan muted since 2004 to sell KBR to investors as a separate company. It will start the process with a sale to investors in about six months’ time of 20 percent of KBR in an initial public offering.

Peru LNG, whose major shareholders are Hunt Oil of the US and Spanish major Repsol, is on the brink of making more progress in financing and development of what is the second phase of one of the world’s most controversial energy projects.
The LNG joint venture is in talks with multilateral financial institutions, including the World Bank and the US Export-Import Bank, for $800 million in loans and guarantees that would encourage commercial banks also to lend to the $2.7 billion liquefaction project.
