Deleum expands Thai footprint with RM60m oilfield acquisition
DELEUM Bhd is expanding its regional presence with a proposed acquisition of an oilfield services business in Thailand worth RM60 million, as part of efforts to scale up its operations in the region. According to a filing with Bursa Malaysia, its indirect subsidiary Deleum Oilfield Solutions (Thailand) Co Ltd (DOST) has entered into a sale and purchase agreement with Thailand-based MPC Future Co Ltd to acquire the latter's oil and gas business and assets — excluding its e-line operations. The RM60 million consideration comprises the issuance of new ordinary and preference shares in DOST to MPC, amounting to a combined 48.34% stake in the Thai entity, and a cash payment for the remainder of the deal value. The cash portion will be funded via bank borrowings from Deleum's wholly owned unit, Deleum Services Sdn Bhd (DSSB). As part of the deal structure, DOST will also issue a 1.73% stake to a local entity controlled by Suthee Chivaphongse — who is currently a director and major shareholder of DOST — for THB10 million under a separate subscription agreement. This related party transaction is intended to retain local expertise and is not expected to materially affect the group's financial position. The target business comprises slickline, hydraulic workover and wellhead maintenance services, as well as related assets valued at about RM50 million as of June 2024. The acquisition includes operational contracts, equipment, and leases tied to the business. Upon completion, DOST's paid-up capital will rise to THB576.8 million, with DSSB retaining control by holding a 49.93% stake and the right to appoint a majority of directors. The remaining shares will be held by MPC and the Suthee-controlled entity. The acquisition is subject to several conditions precedent and completion is expected in the second half of 2025. Deleum said the acquisition is a strategic move to grow its presence in Thailand and achieve operational synergies through DOST. The proposed transaction will strengthen DOST's oil and gas services segment and is expected to be value-accretive to the group over the long term. The transaction will not impact Deleum's share capital or shareholder structure, but may raise its gearing level. Nonetheless, the board believes it remains at a manageable level. The board and audit committee concluded that both the acquisition and related party subscription are fair, on commercial terms, and in the best interest of the group and minority shareholders. — TMR

Deleum's 70pct stake in PT OSA to boost Southeast Asia presence
KUALA LUMPUR: Oil and gas services provider Deleum Bhd's 70 per cent acquisition of PT OSA Industries Indonesia (PT OSA) for RM31.3 million is set to enhance its presence in Southeast Asia, strengthen its technical expertise in valve services, and broaden its operations within Indonesia. In a research note today, MIDF Amanah Investment Bank (MIDF) opined that the acquisition, carried out through Deleum's wholly owned subsidiary Deleum Services Sdn Bhd, also complemented the group's current valve business under its subsidiary, Penaga Dresser Sdn Bhd. "The acquisition aligns with the group's expected growth trajectory, and we had anticipated it as a logical step to support long-term operational benefits. "Going forward, Deleum will likely focus on integrating PT OSA's operations and aligning business processes," it said. MIDF said the integration with PT OSA is expected to unlock synergies such as improving valve lifecycle management services, streamlining delivery mechanisms, and fostering knowledge sharing with the Indonesian team. "We make no changes in its forecast projection for Deleum, as we had factored in this acquisition in its estimates. "We maintain our 'buy' call, with a target price of RM1.92," MIDF said.
