Duet completes $200m placement offer

Energy utility owner Duet aims to raise $30 million through a share purchase plan following its successful $200 million placement offer.

Energy utility owner Duet Group expects to take full control of the main Western Australian gas transmission line in April after it raised $200 million in a placement offer.

Duet shares will resume trading on Friday and the company will issue 90.9 million new stapled securities at $2.20 each, which represents a 3.5 per cent discount on the price at Wednesday's close.

The group now aims to raise another $30 million through a share purchase plan.

The fresh capital will finance the $205 million purchase of Alcoa's 20 per cent stake in the Dampier-Bunbury pipeline, which would make Duet its sole owner.
