The flexibility and strength of Anadarko's portfolio has enabled it to adapt quickly to the oil price collapse and uncertain macro-outlook. While the company will continue to focus on re-setting its cost base in 2016, the approach to acquire Apache also shows that it sees opportunity in the current environment. However, Anadarko is highly leveraged and the slump in its market value, combined with its highly attractive portfolio, leaves it vulnerable to takeover.
