Munich — Corpo­rate law firm Gütt Olk Feld­haus has advi­sed MAN Energy Solu­ti­ons SE on the sale of its gas turbine busi­ness to China’s CSIC Longjiang GH Gas Turbine Co Ltd (GHGT) in a carve-out and asset deal. The tran­sac­tion is subject to regu­la­tory appr­ovals and the satis­fac­tion of other closing condi­ti­ons. The parties have agreed not to disc­lose the purchase price.

Beyond the sale, both compa­nies have concluded long-term supply and service agree­ments and will coope­rate closely in the future. — To date, MAN Energy Solu­ti­ons has been produ­cing and servicing MGT gas turbi­nes of up to 8 mega­watts in size at its sites in Ober­hau­sen and Zurich for use as mecha­ni­cal drives or for power generation.

MAN Energy Solu­ti­ons SE, head­quar­te­red in Augs­burg, Germany, is a leading global supplier of large-bore diesel and gas engi­nes and turbo­ma­chi­nery. The product port­fo­lio includes two- and four-stroke engi­nes for marine and statio­nary appli­ca­ti­ons, turbo­char­gers and propel­lers, as well as gas and steam turbi­nes, compres­sors and chemi­cal reac­tors. The company employs around 14,000 people at more than 120 loca­ti­ons worldwide.

Head­quar­te­red in Harbin, China, GHGT deve­lops small and medium-sized gas turbi­nes as well as high-perfor­mance and combus­tion tech­no­lo­gies. The company is a subsi­diary of China State Ship­buil­ding Corpo­ra­tion (CSSC) and employs more than 700 people worldwide.

GOF had advi­sed MAN Energy Solu­ti­ons, among others, on the acqui­si­tion of H‑TEC SYSTEMS GmbH in 2021.
