Japan will reportedly give a $3 billion loan to Abu Dhabi National Oil Co [2] (ADNOC) to help boost the oil developer's upstream business and strengthen bilateral relations.
The deal is set to be signed on Sunday by the Japan Bank for International Cooperation (JBIC) and ADNOC [3], reported Reuters, citing Japan’s Trade Ministry.
The loan is also expected to help Japan win new energy concessions or the renewal of existing concessions in the oil-rich nation, Reuters quoted the Trade Ministry said.
The loan is to be extended by JBIC and three private banks, the Bank of Tokyo-Mitsubishi UFJ, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corp and Mizuho Corporate Bank, the ministry reportedly added.
