据世界石油2月16日消息称，GlobalData 表示，去年油气行业共达成了740亿美元的交易，而2020年仅为400亿美元。
这家数据分析公司指出，油价回升鼓励企业进行更多高价值交易，以推动其增长计划。就价值而言，2021年最大的一笔交易是在年底宣布的，当时油价处于多年来的高点。中包括Aker BP拟以139亿美元收购北海运营商Lundin Energy。
GlobalData的最新报告《2021年全球并购交易——按行业分类的主要主题》显示，考虑到已知的并购交易价值，2021年油气行业的全球并购活动每年增长16%，达到3350亿美元。除中国、中东和非洲以外的所有地区报告称，2021年的交易价值与前一年相比有所增加。然而，就交易量而言，2021年的油气并购活动基本持平，约为1800笔。
在2021年，上游行业贡献了1200亿美元的最高并购交易价值。与2020年相比，增长率达到48%，是历史最高水平。
GlobalData油气分析师Ravindra Puranik表示:“页岩和海底油气交易的增长很大程度上是由页岩和海底主题推动的。美国页岩油气藏，尤其是二叠纪盆地，仍然是2021年油气并购最具吸引力的目标。北海的油气资产在去年也见证了几笔交易，其中包括涉及 Lundin Energy 的交易。”
中游资产在 2021 年的交易份额中也有显著贡献。其中包括几笔涉及北美油气管道资产的高价值交易，如Brookfield Infrastructure以115亿美元收购Inter pipeline，或Energy Transfer以72亿美元收购Enable Midstream。
Puranik说:“只要石油和天然气行业继续满足全球大部分能源需求，就会有对管道和液化天然气(LNG)等运输基础设施的需求。”

Globaldata: Oil and gas industry witnessed a surge in high-value deals in 2021
A total of 74 billion-dollar deals were undertaken in the oil and gas industry last year, compared to only 40 in 2020, says GlobalData.
The data and analytics company notes that oil price recovery encouraged companies to undertake more high-value deals to push forward their growth plans. The largest deal in terms of value for 2021 was announced towards the end of the year, when prices were at multi-year highs. It involved the proposed $13.9 billion acquisition of North Sea operator Lundin Energy by Aker BP.
GlobalData’s latest report, ‘Global M&A Deals in 2021 – Top Themes by Sector’, reveals that global mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity in the oil and gas industry grew annually by 16% to reach $335 billion in 2021, considering M&As with known deal value. All regions, except China, the Middle East and Africa, reported an increase in deal value in 2021, compared to the previous year. However, in terms of deal volume, M&A activity was largely flat at around 1,800 oil and gas deals in 2021.
The upstream sector contributed to the highest M&A transaction value of $120 billion in 2021. It also recorded the highest growth of 48% compared to 2020.
“This growth in deal making was largely driven by the shale and subsea themes,” said Ravindra Puranik, Oil & Gas Analyst at GlobalData. “The U.S. shale plays, particularly the Permian Basin, remained the most attractive target for oil and gas M&As in 2021. The oil and gas assets in the North Sea also witnessed several deals in the last year, including the one involving Lundin Energy.”
Midstream assets also had a notable contribution to the share of the deals in 2021. This included several high-value deals involving oil and gas pipeline assets in North America, such as Brookfield Infrastructure’s $11.5 billion acquisition of Inter Pipeline or the acquisition of Enable Midstream by Energy Transfer for $7.2 billion.
“As long as the oil and gas industry continues to meet the bulk of global energy needs, there will also be demand for transportation infrastructure, such as pipelines and liquefied natural gas (LNG),” Puranik said.
