status, its advanced stage of development and its strong relationships with companies such as Bechtel, Baker Hughes and Chart Industries. <\/p>\n\n<p>The total enterprise value of the transaction, including net debt, <strong>is approximately $1.2 billion<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, the transaction, unanimously approved by the boards of directors of both companies, is expected to
