The Energy Capital Conference 2013 Show Report
Consolidation is coming, and plenty of capital is available to make deals. However, succession planning for surviving companies needs to take into account their appropriate strategy, not just personalities, according to speakers at Oil and Gas Investor’s annual Energy Capital Conference, held in Houston in mid-June. The event focused on industry trends and boardroom issues common to all upstream corporations, big and small. Further consolidation among E&P companies is going to happen, panelists agreed. “It’s going to be a major part of our business for the next five to 10 years,” said R. Danny Campbell, president of Henry Resources LLC, Midland. All major basins should see some consolidations; speakers were keen to focus on the Permian, where well-capitalized majors (who largely left in the 1980s), have plenty of cash on hand today and are willing to pay to get back into the booming basin. Whatever the basin or play, likely acquisition targets will be companies that are cashconstrained but asset-rich. The buyers, meanwhile, will be well-financed companies in search of resource plays. “They are all fascinated by these resource plays,” said H. Craig Clark, president and chief executive of Wishbone Energy Partners LLC, a new private-equity-backed startup looking for assets. And when deals are found, larger amounts of capital will be needed to develop the plays – a dynamic of the acquisitions and divestiture market that has changed in the past 12 to 18 months. “The ability to take a 10,000-acre piece of property, drill five to 10 wells and sell a bunch of undrilled locations has disappeared,” said Doug Swanson, a partner at EnCap Investments LP. Today, properties have to be more developed and need more production data and top-tier economics.

But that fact isn’t slowing investing, and a prime example of this can be seen in private equity, which has fast become a big player. Swanson said he’s seen reports of $28 billion in energyfocused private equity funds currently in the market, available to finance E&P companies. Attendees at this year’s conference, meanwhile, also got a glimpse of what some industry executives think. According to the results of the 11th Survey of Upstream U.S. Energy Companies commissioned by Grant Thornton in partnership with Hart Energy, and shared with the audience at the conference, industry leaders worry that natural gas and crude oil prices in 2013 and years to come are stuck in a rut or will fall. “The number one concern is price uncertainty,” said Brandon Sear, National Energy Practice Leader, Grant Thornton. The survey of E&P, midstream and oilfield services executives found respondents do not think average gas prices of $4 per thousand cubic feet of gas (Mcf) will solidify until 2015. Whether those speculations come to pass remains to be seen. What we at Hart Energy do know and can predict is that whatever comes next in this fast-evolving industry, it will be interesting, and it will be part of the wide range of discussions we have again at next year’s Energy Capital Conference. We hope you’ll join us then to be a part of it. See you then!

2012 Oil and Gas Investor Excellence Awards Through triumphs, turmoil or uncertainty the executives who run successful companies cannot be timid. No matter what kind of seas they encounter, they must maintain a steady hand on the tiller and a steady course, keeping their compass fixed on the goals set forth by the board and their senior management teams. So it was in 2012 for these companies and individuals, the award winners in Oil and Gas Investor’s 10th Annual Excellence Awards program. They were nominated by their peers and our readers, selected by the editors and were awarded their trophies during the 6 th annual Energy Capital Conference in June.
