Global upstream M&A: H1 2019 review and outlook
*Please note that this report only includes an Excel data file if this is indicated in "What's included" below
Report summary
Global upstream M&A in H1 2019 flattered to deceive. Occidental’s US$53 billion acquisition of Anadarko grabbed the headlines – the stare-down with Chevron, the Omaha connection, the pre-emptive disposal of Africa to Total. But a broader malaise saw global deal flow scrape twenty-year lows. Valuations weakened, with the implied long-term oil price averaging US$57/bbl in H1 2019 (vs. US$64/bbl through 2018).
