South Korean trader POSCO International Corp made an AUS$814.8 million takeover bid for Senex Energy Ltd in September, the Australian natural gas producer said on Monday.

Senex said it was giving POSCO exclusive due diligence access until Nov. 5 to better its already twice-improved bid of AUS$4.40 per share, with the South Korean firm indicating it would likely push the deal through an off-market takeover if it goes ahead. POSCO International, the trading arm of South Korean steel giant POSCO , could not be immediately reached for comment.

Senex said POSCO International initially made its approach on July 30 with an AUS$4-per-share bid, followed up around a month later by an AUS$4.20-a-share bid.The latest bid is a 15.2per cent premium to Senex's close on Friday and a near 38per cent premium to its close on Sept.1.
