Rival Downhole Acquires Operating Assets of Hunting Energy
Hunting PLC announced in December 2020 that the operating assets of Hunting Energy Services, its wholly-owned subsidiary, will be purchased by Rival Downhole Tools. In exchange, Hunting will acquire a minor equity stake in Rival as part of the agreement. This move, according to Rival’s CEO, will put the company into a leading position in the drilling services industry and rapidly enhance the company’s brand value in the market. Furthermore, the addition of Hunting’s drilling assets will augment Rival’s product development capacities and place it in an enviable position to launch a series of offerings in the international sphere in 2021. For Hunting, the synergies established by the unification of the two businesses will give it a strategic edge in the US onshore drilling market.

Rising Investments in Renewables to Limit Market Growth
Drilling services form the core of exploration & production (E&P) activities in the hydrocarbon industry. However, with environmental concerns taking center stage in the global political and economic dynamics, countries are adopting various strategies to reduce their dependence on fossil fuels. As a result, investments in renewable energy sources have surged over the past few years. According to the International Renewable Energy Agency (IRENA), renewables generated 6,586 TWh of electricity in 2018, with hydro, wind, and solar leading the charge. Electricity generation from renewable sources increased by 6.1% in 2018 from 2017 levels, with solar power accounting for 28% of this rise and wind contributing 11%. The IRENA estimates that total public investment in renewables stood at USD 21 billion in 2018. Moreover, the coronavirus has further depleted the demand for oil globally, while renewables depicted resilient growth, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). With countries steadily transitioning towards clean energy, the adoption of these services is highly likely to diminish over the next couple of decades.
