By Connor Hart

Apollo Global Management will invest $600 million to acquire 50% interest in a joint venture entity related to the Vale Oman Distribution Center.

The New York-based asset manager on Tuesday said the transaction is expected to close before the end of the year, subject to customary regulatory approvals.

Vale Oman operates a maritime terminal in Sohar, Oman, with a large deep-water jetty and an integrated iron ore blending and distribution center, Apollo said. Vale will continue to own 100% of Vale Oman Pelletizing Company.

Apollo Partner Jamshid Ehsani said the firm will be helping finance critical supply chain infrastructure with the joint venture.
