As a result, the first half of 2016 experienced several distressed asset sales and consolidation in the industry. Bankruptcies, subsiding revenues, dwindling capex budgets, and downward reserve valuations are expected to create a dynamic M&A environment moving forward that fosters creative deal-making in the industry.
