Apache August Investor Presentation

Conoco's stated strategy shift plays right into the majority of Apache's assets - mostly NA, very little Europe/North Sea and other (Egypt)





ConocoPhillips Investor Overview Nov-2015

EDIT: Guess not :lol:
Conoco would be my guess based on recent strategy shifts.

Just wondering if you guys have any specific tips when it comes to interviewing for a Private Equity internship and if there are any particular skills they look for in a candidate?


Why private equity? Why this firm? How does your previous experience help add value to us? Why should we hire you over someone with XYZ experience? I assume you've practiced doing a case study in their core/one of the core investment industries.

Is this for a summer internship or one during the school year?

It is a very small firm. I think they are still in the deal sourcing and filtering stage.

What's their $AUM? Growth equity, LBO? When did they raise/close their latest fund - has the fund size always trended upward?

Deal sourcing/screening gets old quick - I'd ask specifically if you will be able to work on post integration and due diligence/valuation/modeling aspects.

PE should filled with entrepreneurs who understand how to create value to a business. Yet the vast majority of people entering PE are emotionless souls who are excel samurais but don't know anything about creating value to a business.


Both are definitely needed - industry SME or resident CEO's are best utilized by adding value in the areas/businesses they know; no real reason they should be doing market research/financial modeling.

Ended up putting all of ya'lls recommendations on a Google Map for my group that's going. Might help some others visual where everything is.

$2 on morrison blvd - main drag, big add in daily star

You got a number for this place NG?
Your current Priority Point total is: 9.2400
Your current Priority Point Ranking is: 7,529*
Your current Philanthropic Point total is: 6.1300
Your current Philanthropic Point Ranking is: 5,258*

Shouldn't my point totals be the same though since I don't have tickets/parking (still a student)? Last year my total was 6.13, and after I renewed early this week it was 9.24.
$3/lb same as Tony's and others around BR.
Hopefully there's another 50 cent drop in prices after this weekend again.
I'm in the same boat, need 200lbs for next weekend for the parade.

Guy have you ever been to Ruston

Yes. As I said, I have nothing against Ruston or Louisiana Tech. Just wanted some clarification on what he listed.

Davison is not a billionaire.

He's not listed on Forbes list, but I gave them the benefit of the doubt.

per capita Ruston is the richest in the state and up there in the south.

Link?
Ruston's per capita income reported for the 2000 census was $14,573, far from the richest in the state.
quote:

James Davison (Louisiana's ONLY billionaire for years) lives in Ruston. (He was my nieghbor) :)

Must not claim his main residence as Louisiana, as Forbes only lists one billionaire in Louisiana, and thats Patrick F. Taylor's wife and she lives in New Orleans.

I have nothing against Ruston to throw that out there.

Per capita Ruston ranks very low against other Louisiana towns.
Also interested in these billionaires that live in Ruston, Louisiana.
