BP has agreed the terms for the sale of its 50-per-cent stake in joint venture TNK-BP to Russian state-backed oil firm Rosneft, a statement released in London said 22 October 2012. The deal, which is set to transform Rosneft into the world's largest publicly-listed oil producer, also gives BP access to Russia's huge oil resources. Under the cash-and-share deal, Rosneft will pay BP 17.1 billion dollars in cash, and give the British oil giant shares representing 12.84 per cent of Rosneft. BP intends to use 4.8 billion dollars of the cash consideration to purchase a further 5.66 per cent of Rosneft from the Russian government, the statement said. EPA/STAFF (File: INT11884875.jpg )
