Sona inks agreement to own Thai oil and gas assets


PETALING JAYA: More than a month after announcing a heads of agreement (HoA) on its qualifying asset, Sona Petroleum Bhd has finally inked a definite sale and purchase agreement (SPA) to buy a 40% stake in the Thai unit of UK-listed Salamander Energy Plc.

The next step is for the special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) to get the approvals from shareholders and the Securities Commission (SC) before it can graduate as a junior oil and gas (O&G) player.
