French multinational Rubis Énergie has saved €10 million (Sh1.2 billion) in its takeover of Kenya’s oil marketer Gulf Energy after negotiating the buyout price downwards.

Rubis says the deal, which was completed early this year, had a provision that allowed it to change the final price. The reason for the price adjustment was not disclosed.
