London
THE German utility RWE and a Russian-controlled investment company said that they expected to complete a deal for the oil and gas subsidiary RWE Dea later on Monday, despite objections from the British government.
L1 Energy, based in London and owned by Russian billionaire Mikhail Fridman and partners, agreed last year to buy RWE Dea for five billion euros (S$7.6 billion). Among RWE Dea's prime holdings are a large North Sea natural gas field called Breagh and other British assets.
