Capital Market, Mergers and Acquisitions: Impact on E&P Business

Capital providers shifted away from oil and gas investments in recent years due to a period of low returns and growing interest in the energy transition.

With higher prices, the market has started to question if the dormant mergers and acquisitions space will liven up again. In this SPE Live, Tuba Firincioglu and Sarp Ozkan discuss how capital markets have shifted their view on oil and gas investments, whether there is a shift in their thinking with higher prices, and what this all means for potential consolidation.
