- Thursday, April 25, 10:43 AM Cobalt Energy (CIE +1.8%), which has doubled in value since going public in 2009 but still trades at a substantial discount to the value of its underlying assets, is turning into a takeover target for energy companies attracted to its oil finds from Africa to the Gulf of Mexico, Bloomberg writes. CIE’s assets are "a needle mover" for a large international player, Guggenheim says. 1 Comment [Energy, M&A, On the Move]
- Thursday, March 7, 4:22 AM Exxon Mobil (XOM) has renewed it attempt to reduce its 60% stake in Hong Kong utility Castle Peak Power by launching an auction for a 30% holding in a deal that could bring in up to $2B. Last year, the company tried and failed to sell the whole stake to CLP Holdings - which owns the other 40% of Castle Peak - and China Southern Power Grid. 1 Comment [Energy, M&A]
- Monday, March 4, 9:39 AM Exxon Mobil (XOM) actually could use lower oil prices, WSJ's Liam Denning writes, since it would cut the price of acquisition targets. And XOM, due to host its annual analyst meeting Wednesday, may need a big deal. Its output in 2012 was barely higher than in 2003, and half of it was gas as oil prices have soared and gas has tanked. So to buy its way to growth, XOM could consider a target such as Anadarko (APC). Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, January 23, 5:45 AM Iraq has reportedly made an offer to Exxon (XOM) to stay in the country, although it's not clear what the proposal involves. Exxon has put its 60% stake in the huge southern West Qurna-1 oilfield up for sale after upsetting Baghdad by signing deals with the Kurdish region, which is in dispute with Iraq over oil resources. Following the offer from Baghdad, Exxon CEO Rex Tillerson met the president of Iraqi Kurdistan at the Davos conference yesterday. 4 Comments [Energy, M&A, Top Stories]
- Tuesday, January 22, 9:57 AM BG Group's (BRGYY.PK) valuation falling by half in less than two years is making it vulnerable to a takeover, Bloomberg speculates. BG has stakes in oilfields off Brazil and expanding gas projects from Canada to Australia; some analysts say XOM could be lured to BG to help fuel growth as its production drops, or BP could seek a combination with BG to challenge Shell as Europe's largest oil company. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, January 16, 11:33 AM Energy bankers hoping for another big year of M&A shouldn't fret too much about forecasts for oil and natural gas prices, since fear could make 2013 another bumper year for deals. Right now, it looks cheaper to buy barrels on the stock market via deals than drill for them: Bernstein says oil majors such as XOM and CVX trade at an average enterprise value of less than $15/boe of proved reserves. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, November 28, 2012, 9:19 AM Imperial Oil (IMO) is spending $1.5B to buy into ExxonMobil’s (XOM) acquisition of fellow Canadian player Celtic Exploration (CEXJF.PK), gaining a 50% stake to complete the earlier transaction where XOM agreed to buy Celtic outright for ~$2.6B. The pair will gain access to 545K net acres in the liquids-rich Montney shale and 104K net acres in the Duvernay shale via the Celtic takeover. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Friday, November 9, 2012, 8:21 AM Lukoil says it will consider an offer from Exxon Mobil (XOM) to take over the West Qurna-1 oilfield in Iraq. Lukoil already is developing West Qurna-2 and is looking to offset declining production at its Russian fields. The government expects XOM to complete the sale of its shares in West Qurna-1 by year-end, and the company has told Iraq it is already in talks with other oil majors. Comment! [Energy, M&A, Global & FX]
- Friday, November 9, 2012, 6:16 AM Exxon Mobil (XOM) is in talks with BP (BP), Shell (RDS.A), Lukoil, CNPC and Eni (E) about selling its stake in the West Qurna-1 oilfield in southern Iraq, a senior government spokesman says. Exxon expects to complete a sale of the "super-giant oilfield" by the end of December. It's getting out so it can concentrate on exploration projects in Kurdistan, which is in a dispute with Baghdad over the region's energy resources. Comment! [Energy, M&A, Top Stories]
- Friday, October 26, 2012, 5:21 PM As Exxon (XOM) falls behind in discovering untapped oil fields, it may be forced to buy what it cannot find, some analysts say. Anadarko (APC) could be an M&A candidate because utilities from Singapore to Seoul would pay a premium to import gas it finds off Mozambique’s coast. EOG could rejuvenate XOM with its oil-rich reservoirs in the Eagle Ford shale in Texas. 5 Comments [Energy, M&A, Global & FX]
- Friday, October 19, 2012, 11:36 AM Analysts agree that ExxonMobil (XOM) has the financial strength to buy a company like Encana (ECA -0.4%) but disagree on whether such a deal will take place as speculated. Hedgeye's Kevin Kaiser likes the idea after XOM's purchase of Celtic, whose assets are in the heart of ECA’s Canadian natural gas assets. But the hurdle for government approval could be high. 4 Comments [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 3:15 PM The price paid by Exxon (XOM +0.9%) to acquire Celtic Exploration gives an indication of how North American gas asset valuations have fallen in recent years. Tudor Pickering analysts say the ~$4,800/acre price was below recent sales of $8K-$15K. Shell paid ~$13K/acre for Duvernay’s land in 2008, and PetroChina bought Encana assets for ~$8.5K/acre in 2011. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 2:28 PM Exxon Mobil's (XOM +0.8%) $2.6B deal to acquire Celtic Exploration still must be approved by the Canadian government, but XOM isn’t likely to attract the same scrutiny as Cnooc and Petronas since it isn’t a state-owned buyer. It also has roots in Canada dating to the 1940s; it now operates the Sable Island project and has other interests in Canada’s oil patch, including majority ownership of Imperial Oil. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Wednesday, October 17, 2012, 7:49 AM Exxon Mobil (XOM) to acquire most of Celtic Exploration (CEXJF.PK) for C$24.50/share, including 545K acres in the liquids-rich Montney shale. (PR) Comment! [M&A, Energy]
- Wednesday, October 3, 2012, 3:54 AM Petrobras (PBR) is in talks with three prospective buyers to sell them $4B-$6B worth of stakes in oil blocks in the Gulf of Mexico, with Brazilian media reports saying Shell (RDS.A), Exxon (XOM), Chevron (CVX) and BP (BP) are likely to be the most interested. The divestments are part of Petrobras' strategy of selling $14.5B worth of non-core assets. Comment! [Energy, M&A]
- Thursday, September 20, 2012, 3:47 PM ExxonMobil's (XOM +1%) $1.6B purchase of Bakken oil assets is "still not big enough for Big Oil," Oppenheimer's Fadel Gheit writes - more will be needed to move the needle of such a giant. If XOM decides to use its balance sheet on big acquisitions that are accretive or take place at favorable prices, J.P. Morgan believes XOM could outperform its peers. 1 Comment [Energy, M&A]
