Saudi Aramco said Wednesday that it has closed a $15.5 billion deal with a consortium led by BlackRock Inc. and Hassana Investment Co. for the partial sale of its natural-gas pipeline business.

The state-owned oil major said in December that it was planning a lease and leaseback deal, agreeing to sell a 49% stake in newly-formed subsidiary Aramco Gas Pipelines Company.

Under the deal, the company will keep a 51% majority stake in the subsidiary, as well as full ownership and operational control of the pipeline network, it said.
