Good Resources for O&G M&A?

Hey all,
I’m prepping for my internship in Houston. My school has no courses with an O&G focus so I’m trying to bone-up on the industry jargon, contract law, O&G accounting and finance, and modeling for asset and corporate acquisitions. Wondering if any of the energy guys have recommendations, or if I’m going in the wrong direction with this?

 

Hey there,

You're definitely on the right track! Understanding the industry jargon, contract law, O&G accounting and finance, and modeling for asset and corporate acquisitions is crucial for your internship in Houston.

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some resources that might help you:

  1. WSO Courses and WSO Academy: These platforms offer a wealth of knowledge on various topics, including Investment Banking Prep, Private Equity interviews, and Behavioral Techniques. They might have specific courses related to O&G M&A.

  2. Networking Guide: This could help you connect with professionals in the O&G industry who could provide you with first-hand knowledge and advice.

  3. Analyst Reports and Industry Studies: As mentioned in one of the WSO threads, analyst reports on the industry and studies completed by firms such as Markets & Markets can provide a good breakdown of the industry by players, geographies, and high-level details.

  4. Discussion Forums: The WSO forums are a goldmine of information. You can find discussions on a wide range of topics, including O&G M&A. You can learn from the experiences and insights shared by other users.

Remember, the energy sector, especially Oil & Gas, is undergoing a transition but the deal flow is still there and will be for the foreseeable future. So, your interest in O&G M&A is well-timed.

Good luck with your internship! You're going to crush it!
