They are too busy killing the Concho production to deal with another merger right now.

Concho boys weak sauce and sold at teh bottom after the Dominator.

If you're gonna do a deal, atleast have some longer term asset value.

Nothing from anyone on the last 2 day's bloodbath? Did I miss the jump off a bridge meetup?

Oh come on, everyone is too busy at charity clay shoots, charity chili cook offs, charity golf scrambles to care about fundamentals.

The oilfield is nothing more than an elementary school field day under the facade of charity.

WTF up your butt?

It's no different than any other industry. I have friends in commercial real estate, medical sales, semi conductors, film industry. They are all doing golf outings, week long seminars at fancy resorts, retreats, etc.

Someone's jealous they weren't invited to the last pipeliners event

Nothing really, mainly tongue in cheek. As a decent sized small business owner that plays in the oil & gas industry, I've just marveled at how often my friends who work at competitors and customers are involved in cookouts, golf charity scrambles, and clay shoots.

Corporate entertainment policies across the industry have basically reduced all supplier/customer events to these types of outings since they're pretty informal and easily reciprocal. It's much easier to go play in a golf scramble with a sales guy when your own company is likely already sponsoring the event than it is to request management approval for suite tickets at a ball game or a hunting trip of some sort. The O&G world is honestly pretty tame these days when it comes to stuff like this. My brother in law got a lot more invites to big games and out of town trips working in commercial construction than I ever have in O&G.

Yep. My wife is in IT and she has several conferences in Vegas a year. Every night a different company has a crazy ass party. I'm talking renting out the main rooms at mgm, open bar, and big acts (she's been to Elton John, Maroon 5, etc.)

But yeah, o&g is just burning capital by setting up a smoker and cooking chicken jumbalaya at a golf tournament…..
