Looking at how I can play this with BHP talking about selling a lot of assets. Who do you think I should look into?

What's the play? BHP won't be giving the stuff away and it will most likely end up in private hands.

This is gonna be a really interesting process. One of the largest divestitures in 10+ years.

Permian stuff will probably go a major. I'd say Apache, Anadarko, Pioneer, Concho, EOG, and even Exxon will all be very interested. Imagine their ~83,000 acres in the Permian will go for ~$1.5 to 2.5 billion.

Eagle Ford asset will be very interesting given it is the most prized possession of the portfolio. They are separating the assets into 2 packages and will likely sell for a total of $3 to $4 billion total. They have about ~250k net acres total with ~80 mboe/d of production, which is HUGE. Will be a ton of private equity folks in the running along with the large Eagle Ford publics.

Haynesville and Fayetteville asset are less sexy but will go for another ~$2+ billion combined.

BHP also has midstream assets in each of the basins that will go for a pretty penny, especially in the Permian and Eagle Ford.

Damn, that's a lot of assets. Pretty good for either a black guy that flies helicopters or a guy of undetermined racial genealogy that flies black helicopters.
