BG Group

History

The company was created in 1997 when British Gas plc divested Centrica and became BG plc, which was reorganised in 1999 as BG Group plc.

In 2000 a further demerger separated the company into Lattice Group and BG Group. Lattice took ownership of Transco (the gas transporter for the UK), Advantica (gas engineering and consultancy specialist) along with the property and transport companies and BG Group took ownership of gas fields and other assets.

In 2002 Lattice merged with National Grid Company to become National Grid Transco which was renamed National Grid in 2005.

In September 2007 BG Group delisted its ADRs from the New York Stock Exchange after expressing concerns over the tougher rules and high costs associated with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.Instead its shares began trading on the US over-the-counter market known as the Pink Sheets “International Premier QX”.

In June 2008 BG Group launched a US$13.1 billion hostile and ultimately unsuccessful bid to acquire Origin Energy, Australia’s largest coal-seam gas producer: BG Group were out-manoeuvered by ConocoPhillips who offered to invest US$9.1 billion in a joint venture with Origin.

In October 2008 BG Group agreed to buy Queensland Gas for US$3.4bn so enabling it to operate in Asia’s liquified natural gas market.
