The loss-making Italian energy-services company agreed on Wednesday to sell its onshore drilling business to British rival KCA Deutag for $550 million plus 10% of the enlarged group. That equity stake lifts the division’s price tag to around 600 million euros, Bestinver analysts reckon, above a mooted 500 million euros.
