Oct 1 (Reuters) - Honeywell International Inc said its UOP unit would acquire a 70 percent stake in Thomas Russell Co, a privately held provider of technology and equipment for natural gas processing, for $525 million.
UOP, a supplier and licensor for industries like petroleum refining and gas processing, will also have the right to acquire the remaining 30 percent stake in the Tulsa, Oklahoma-based company, Honeywell said in a statement.
Honeywell said the deal would not impact its 2012 earnings per share, but expects it to add to its 2013 profit.
