In a filing Wednesday, July 6, SapuraCrest said the discussions regarding Clough's Marine CONSTRUCTION [] business may result in a proposed business acquisition, co-operation and/or other business arrangement with Clough.
Clough is a publicly listed Australian based engineering, construction and asset support contractor providing full project life cycle solutions primarily to the upstream oil and gas sector.
'The proposal is part of SapuraCrest's effort to constantly explore opportunities to grow its businesses in the oil and gas sector over the near to medium term.

'The company will provide further updates as well as any future financial impact on the company as appropriate,' it said.
