Since the turn of the decade, it’s been a frenetic period for M&A in the North Sea. Against a backdrop of oil price volatility and a dramatically changing corporate landscape, activity reached record levels. But have acquisitions created value so far? Wood Mackenzie recently analysed 55 of the largest North Sea deals announced between 2012 and 2018 from today’s vantage point to quantify underlying value creation.

The future course of North America Power & Renewable markets is being molded by an ongoing transformation of the energy industry. The sector now serves as the central conduit to decarbonize the energy sector via electrification of fossil-based technology sources like transport and large scale renewable use for power generation. Register to join Wood Mackenzie’s power analysts on Thursday, December 5 at 10 a.m. CT for a discussion on key themes shaping the industry in the near and long-term, including: • Transitioning from fossil fuels to renewable energy • The declining costs of renewable energy and battery storage technologies • The energy transition between coal and natural gas • Is the shift away from traditional baseload supply straining the existing generation fleet? • As coal retires in PJM, why aren’t renewables filling the vacuum?
Speaking after this morning’s PSC round, Juliana Miguez, from Wood Mackenzie’s Latin America upstream team, said: “Petrobras has returned to the headlines. One day after it dominated the Transfer of Rights Surplus round, the NOC placed the only bid of today’s auction."
The energy transition is undoubtedly impacting corporate upstream strategies in significant and disruptive ways. Coupled with the post-2014 downturn in oil prices, Wood Mackenzie sees seismic changes in the way the industry allocates capital across development, exploration and in particular M&A.
Wood Mackenzie’s latest report reveals that LNG sellers with contracts linked to JCC (Japan Crude Cocktail) could lose some US$15 billion in unearned revenues. This is a result of the IMO 2020 regulation limiting sulphur content of marine fuels to up to 0.5%, which directly affects the price of sour crudes such as those composing the JCC mix. The IMO 2020 kicks in on 1st January 2020.
OPEC+ gathers today and tomorrow to decide if the group should roll over its production restraint agreement or consider deeper cuts. The current agreement to reduce output by 1.2 million b/d runs to end March 2020. Ann-Louise Hittle, vice president, Macro Oils, said: “The idea of deeper cuts has been broached, but we consider that less likely to reach full agreement than a rollover of the standing agreement. The need for production restraint is clear. Slower US production growth is not enough to offset the ongoing imbalance between global supply and demand.”
After a marathon meeting, running late into the night of 5 December, the OPEC+ group has agreed to continue its current production restraint of 1.2 million barrels per day (b/d), and will add a further 0.5 million b/d of supply cuts through to March 2020.
It will be a noteworthy year for the North Sea – companies will increase production for the first time since 2017 and the outlook for both exploration and investment is looking healthy. The region will remain a global hotspot for deals as the corporate landscape continues to evolve. Crucially, the North Sea will also see major steps towards decarbonisation.
During the webinar, Wood Mackenzie experts discussed: 1. Of the pure plays (ex: Cabot), who looks best positioned to weather low prices in the long-term? 2. Hedging portfolios: How much time do they have? 3. Debt: Who is most at risk of breaching a covenant in 2020 in the Appalachia and how do maturities factor in? 4. What actions can operators work towards in the near-term to address these issues?
The OPEC+ meeting broke up without a deal, what does it mean for the markets?
As global markets reel in the wake of the oil price crash, Wood Mackenzie’ corporate analysis team believes the price collapse could be the trigger for a new phase of deep industry restructuring - one that rivals the changes seen in the late-1990s.
