Report summary
Kosmos Energy has entered the deepwaters of the US Gulf of Mexico, acquiring private equity-backed Deep Gulf Energy (DGE) for US$1.225 billion. The deal is transformational for Kosmos Energy, increasing its production base by 50% (to 70,000 boe/d), and providing exposure to a business built around quick turnarounds and infrastructure-led exploration and development. Though known to date as a drill bit-led explorer, the deal turns Kosmos into a multi-region, full-cycle E&P company with a cash-generative, short-cycle platform in the Gulf of Mexico.
