Three oil and gas deals, all worth more than $1 billion, were announced this past week. What does that say about dealmaking right now?
Houston-based Patterson-UTI Energy made every effort to get bigger, and it did so by buying crosstown rival NexTier Oilfield Solutions. The move catapulted the company within spitting distance of 10,000-pound gorilla in the North America oil and gas pumping market, Halliburton.
“With the combination, the go-forward entity rises to top of the list, just behind HAL,” TPH & Co. analyst Jeff LeBlanc said in a note.
Earthstone Energy, also based in Houston, was on an acquisition tear, too, picking up assets here and there, but nothing as big as its purchase of EnCap-backed privately held Novo Oil & Gas Holdings for $1.5 billion. Then it turned around and agreed to sell a third interest in Novo for $500 million to Minnetonka, Minn.-based Northern Oil & Gas, which has also been acquisitive.
“The deal marks the third transaction where NOG is taking on more of JV-type transaction with a large working interest,” Piper Sandler analyst Mark Lear said in a note, noting its deal with Forge (30% working interest) with Vital Energy operating and the MDC transaction (40% working interest).
Finally, in the last deal, Gibson Energy, a publicly traded Canadian company, picked up a newly built Gulf Coast crude oil export facility near Corpus Christi from Buckeye Partners for $1.1 billion.
Buckeye was taken private in 2019 by Australia’s IFM Investors in a deal worth $10.3 billion, so IFM might have wanted to take some money off the table. And Buckeye intends to refocus its operations on the clean energy transition, aiming to be a net zero business by 2040, so it wouldn’t do to own an oil terminal. The facility is 50 percent owned and operated by Buckeye with Phillips 66 and Marathon Petroleum each holding 25 percent.
The week ending June 17 saw 17 deals worth $5.88 billion, representing 15 M&A transactions valued at $4.7 billion and two capital markets offerings priced at $1.2 billion. It’s probably worth noting that only six of the M&A deals included disclosed values, especially when comparing with last week’s 19 deals for $8.5 billion and the 17 deals for $11.9 billion for the same week last year.
