French Distrigaz Sud, the biggest natural gas distributor with operations in the area of Bucharest, and Megaconstruct company held by businessman Dan Adamescu, owner of Unirea Shopping Center, were the only companies that submitted bids for the takeover of Petrom Distributie Gaze by the deadline of July 7. Market players do not expect the deal to go beyond 50m euros. Germany’s E.ON Gaz Romania was also interested in the sale of Petrom Distributie Gaze, but, according to company sources, the only bids that were filed by the deadline were those on behalf of Megaconstruct and Distrigaz Sud. Petrom representatives did not comment on this information. “This type of information is protected by confidentiality clauses,” stated Distrigaz Sud representatives, while E.ON Gaz officials chose not to comment either.
