According to Spanish financial daily Expansion, the decision was taken after Madrid and authorities in the Basque autonomous region expressed a preference for the US firm's offer.
Bain was now also reportedly preparing to sign a two-month agreement with Rolls Royce to hold exclusive talks.
As part of the deal, Sener, whose headquarters were also located in the Basque country, would participate in Bain's offer.
