Dominion Energy Inc. said Monday it has agreed to transfer a 25% non-controlling equity interest in Cove Point to Brookfield Super-Core Infrastructure Partners, an infrastructure fund managed by Brookfield Asset Management Inc., for just over $2 billion in cash. Cove Point owns a liquefied natural gas import, export and storage facility located in Chesapeake Bay in Lusby, Md. The deal is part of Dominion's plan to establish a permanent capital structure for Cove Point, which has a 136-mile pipeline that connects the facility with the interstate pipeline system.
