Oil & Gas IQ Releases Survey Results on the A&D Community's Outlook for 2012

LONDON, January 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

85.7% of respondents believe A&D activities will increase in 2012

In December 2011, Oil & Gas IQ launched a global study polling A&D professionals on their thoughts on the current A&D landscape and where opportunities for new business lie. Among the findings are that 85.7% of respondents believe acquisition and divestiture activities will increase in the coming year.

Acquisition and divestiture is an important part of the European oil and gas industry. With the last few years' economic instability it's more important than ever for exploration and production companies to stay on top of their portfolios.

Some of the reasons for this influx in activity mentioned in the survey include smaller companies lacking finance and large companies finally getting around to shedding smaller non-core packages.

The full survey report is available to download free of charge from the Acquisition & Divestiture download centre at http://www.acquisitiondivestituresummit.com/Survey.

The oil and gas industry's key players in acquisition & divestiture will be gathering for the at IQPC's 10^th Annual Acquisition & Divestiture Summit in May with one common goal; to raise their profiles, explore opportunities and build relationships in order to create fast moving and profitable deals that deliver real value to oil and gas businesses.
