Prior notification of a concentration
(Case COMP/M.6480 — PetroFina/Fina Antwerp Olefins)
Candidate case for simplified procedure
(Text with EEA relevance)
2012/C 27/07






1.


On 25 January 2012, the Commission received a notification of a proposed concentration pursuant to Article 4 of Council Regulation (EC) No 139/2004 (1) by which PetroFina SA (‘PetroFina’, Belgium), belonging to the Total group, acquires within the meaning of Article 3(1)(b) of the Merger Regulation sole control of the whole of Fina Antwerp Olefins NV (‘FAO’, Belgium) by way of purchase of ExxonMobil Petroleum & Chemical BVBA's 35 % equity interest in FAO.










2.


The business activities of the undertakings concerned are:






—


for the Total group: manufactures, distributes and sells base chemicals, commodity polymers and specialty chemicals through its chemical business segment,










—


for PetroFina: distributes and sells base chemicals as well as commodity polymers produced therefrom,










—


for FAO: a processing company, which owns three naphtha crackers, satellite units and logistics and which manufactures base chemicals (ethylene and propylene) and their co-products.














3.


On preliminary examination, the Commission finds that the notified transaction could fall within the scope of the EC Merger Regulation. However, the final decision on this point is reserved. Pursuant to the Commission Notice on a simplified procedure for treatment of certain concentrations under the EC Merger Regulation (2) it should be noted that this case is a candidate for treatment under the procedure set out in the Notice.










4.


The Commission invites interested third parties to submit their possible observations on the proposed operation to the Commission.
Observations must reach the Commission not later than 10 days following the date of this publication.
