After the deal’s conclusion, CDPQ will raise its stake in TAG to 50%, while Engie Brasil will own 17.5% and its French parent company will hold the rest, giving it an indirect 50% stake.

In 2019, Engie and CDPQ jointly acquired a 90% stake in TAG from state-run oil firm Petrobras for about $8.6 billion, purchasing the remainder the following year.

TAG owns and operates a large part of Brazil’s natural gas pipelines with some 4,500 kilometers (2,800 miles) over 10 states in Brazil.
