HUGE NEWS: Permian Driller Cimarex Buying Out Cabot Oil & Gas

| | | | |
We're devastated. We know you're not supposed to have favorites, but we do. Our favorite Marcellus/Utica driller for years has been Cabot Oil & Gas. We know some great folks who work for Cabot. It has been a peerless operator in the northeast Marcellus--making money when nobody else could. Cabot treats its landowners well, cares about the environment, gives big money to local nonprofit causes, and in general is the best kind of corporate citizen anybody could wish for. We suppose it was only a matter of time before Cabot became a target in this merger mania we're currently going through. This morning Cabot announced a "merger of equals" with Cimarex, a big driller in the Permian and Midcontinent. The truth is Cimarex is buying out Cabot.
