Other industry observers have also chimed with their own mergers and acquisitions theories.
“The Merrill Lynch team said that the Cameron deal puts competitors like FMC Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FTI), Aker Solutions, Forum Energy Technologies, Inc. (NYSE: FET) and Dril-Quip, Inc. (NYSE: DRQ) into focus. It also raises questions about what National Oilwell Varco (NYSE: NOV) and Weatherford International plc (NYSE: WFT) will do,” reports Jon C. Ogg for 24/7 Wall Street.
National Oilwell Varco and Weatherford International, both OIH holdings, have long been rumored to be potential takeover targets.
