In a move that raises Vinci SA’s stake in Geostock to 90 percent, the construction company and highway operator bought a 40 percent stake from Total, France’s largest oil company, adding onto Vinci’s existing 50 percent share.

Total has recently announced plans to raise money through asset sales in a two-year plan to invest in new oil extraction projects, hopefully boosting production by three percent.
