Chevron makes $17B power play for Unocal /USA TODAY,Tuesday, April 5,2005/
~ Earlier this year, ChevronTexaco CEO David O'Reilly warned U.S. energy watchers
~ that oil corporate giants in China and India might forge alliances that could lead to worldwide bidding wars for Middle Eastern oil.
~ On Monday, O'Reilly announced a $17 billion stock-and-cash deal for Unocal (UCL), the No. 9 U.S. oil company by reserves.
~ ChevronTexaco (CVX)— the second-largest U.S. oil company behind ExxonMobil — will be a leader in Big Oil's race to fuel energy-thirsty Asia.
~ The merger comes as prices for oil and natural gas have been on a sharp upswing for months,
~ helping to boost profit margins for energy companies.
~ The new company would boast a stock-market value of $140 billion,
~ trailing ExxonMobil's $387 billion,
~ British Petroleum's $225 billion and
~ France's Total S.A.'s $147 billion in stock-market capitalization.
~ The new company will control 2.4 billion barrels of oil reserves out of 36 billion barrels of oil reserves in Asia, according to the Oil & Gas Journal.
~ Unocal holds more than half of its reserves in Asia, plus substantial oil and natural gas projects in the region.
~ ChevronTexaco is already the biggest producer in Indonesia,
~ and the deal will make the new company the largest oil and gas producer in Thailand.
~ Asia has been Unocal's focus more and more over the last decade.
~ That Asia focus is exactly what Chevron-Texaco is buying.
~ Oil prices are up more than 30% this year.
Traders are worried that demand could soon outstrip supply
~ China, the world's second-biggest oil consumer after the United States,
~ is already guzzling more than a third of the world's crude supplies.
~ Chinese fuel use will rise 7.9% this year, or 500,000 barrels a day, to 6.88 million barrels a day,
~ according to the Paris-based International Energy Agency.
