How fluctuating oil prices drive mergers in the oil and gas industry
In a report published by Bloomberg Business late last month, Danish business conglomerate A.P. Moeller-Maersk A/S is eyeing for acquisitions in the North Sea to expand reserves, given that mergers and acquisitions are more cost-efficient nowadays than exploration.Fluctuating oil prices is the primary reason why oil and natural gas players see takeovers as a better option than expensive explorations. Among the first to bulk up in the U.S. are Houston-based Noble Energy and Rosetta Resources in a buyout worth $2.1 billion. At the start of this year, Hillcrest Resources Ltd. has announced its purchase of Texas-based Gulfsands Petroleum USA. Late last year, Encana Corp. has announced its intent to purchase Athlon Energy in a multi-billion dollar deal.In today’s volatile energy market, it would be a wise move for mineral rights owners to sell their mineral rights upfront to free themselves from the risks caused by the sector’s ever-changing landscape.
