Report summary
ConocoPhillips is buying Shell's Delaware basin assets for US$9.5 billion in cash. The divestment marks a turnaround for Shell. And we think the matter of scale was at the heart of the decision. Grinding consolidation dictates that you’re either a buyer or a seller, and once Shell decided it wasn’t going to be a buyer, there was only one outcome. ConocoPhillips, on the other hand, gained exactly the critical mass it was looking for.
