In a rare joint venture, China National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC) and Sinopec Group have reportedly made a joint bid of between US$1.5bn-US$2.5bn for Peruvian offshore oil and gas driller Petro-Tech Peruana, according to a China-based industry official. Petro-Tech, which is currently owned by Houston-based Offshore International Group, has attracted interest from Chinese companies since being put on offer.
