Schlumberger Ltd., the world’s largest oilfield-services provider, agreed to buy Cameron International Corp. for $66.36 a share in a $14.8 billion deal that creates greater one-stop shopping for crude explorers.


quote:

“With oil prices now at lower levels, oilfield services companies that deliver innovative technology and greater integration while improving efficiency, which our customers increasingly demand, will outperform the market,” Paal Kibsgaard, chairman and chief executive officer of Schlumberger, said in the statement. “This agreement with Cameron opens new and broader opportunities for Schlumberger.”

I know that Cameron has a couple of facilities around Louisiana. Wonder what this means for the Cameron folks.

Might as well remove the exit on I-49 if they close down the VP plant.

I don't see it as a bad thing for Cameron but I am fixing to sell my Cameron shares in 3 minutes if the market does what its predicting. My Cameron shares closed at $42.47 yesterday and expecting to valued at $62.50 when it opens this morning.
