 "Petronas to sell 25% stake in Canadian Progress to Indian company")
Singapore: Petronas has agreed to sell a 25 percent stake in Canadian Progress Energy Resources Corp. to an Indian company, the Malaysian state oil firm’s president and chief executive Shamsul Azhar Abbas said on Tuesday.
He did not name the company or the price at which Petronas will sell the stake.

Shamsul has previously said the company was close to selling a stake in its Canadian shale gas assets to an Indian company. Petronas is looking to share some of the costs of bringing cheap liquefied natural gas from North America to energy-hungry Asia.
Petronas, which has been expanding abroad to shore up future earnings as output slows at home, bought Canada’s Progress Energy Resources in 2012 in a deal worth around $5 billion that gave it shale gas properties in northeastern British Columbia.
