CDT Roundup: 11 Deals, 10 Firms, 92 Lawyers, $801M

July 25, 2022 Claire Poole

In the past week, there were reports – both by Reuters – that ConocoPhillips and Shell were exploring a sale of their U.S. Gulf of Mexico assets.

For Houston-based ConocoPhillips, the sale of its Ursa platform and Princess subsea well – likely to be valued in the high hundreds of millions of dollars, according to the news agency – would mark its exit from deepwater energy production off the U.S. Gulf coast (ConocoPhillips declined comment).

London-based Shell is targeting $1.5 billion for the sale of its Auger hub and its 37.5 percent stake in the Conger field, operated by Hess, as per Reuters (Shell also declined to comment).

It’s natural to want to sell at a time of high oil prices. But price volatility has made it harder for potential buyers and sellers to strike deals, according to Reuters. That’s what the Corporate Deal Tracker has also been hearing.

To assure your firm’s deals are published in the CDT Roundup please email deal information to CDTRoundup@texaslawbook.net. For further information or for league table submissions, please contact Allen Pusey (allen.pusey@texaslawbook.net) or see our FAQ and online portals on the Corporate Deal Tracker page HERE.

Coming off a highly productive H1, we’ve apparently hit the summer doldrums. Or something. For the week ending July 23, there were 11 transactions reported for a total value of $801 million. That compares to 14 deals for $3.6 billion a week earlier and 21 deals for $6.4 billion.

Seven of the deals in this week’s Roundup were for confidential values, even the single capital markets transaction; and we saw an 11-deal $306 million week in May, just 10 weeks ago, so we’re not reading anything dramatic into that.

But all the same, keep watching this space.
