Each tranche will have the size of $500 million, the person told Bloomberg. The Abu Dhabi-based company, which last tapped the dollar market two years ago when it raised $750 million, has a $1 billion bond maturing in October, according to data compiled by Bloomberg.

It potentially joins a number of borrowers from the from the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council that helped raise bond sales to $33 billion, a record for the period.

Qatar, the world’s biggest exporter of liquefied natural gas, raised $9 billion last month in the region’s biggest bond sale and Abu Dhabi in April raised $5 billion in its first offering in seven years.

BNP Paribas, Citigroup, First Gulf Bank, HSBC Holdings, National Bank of Abu Dhabi and Societe Generale SA are managing Taqa’s bond sale.
