Evaluation of the energy value chain across Renewables, Upstream, Midstream and Downstream to identify particular demand centres
To provide acquisition scouting services, and support the potential acquisition of small and medium-sized EPC houses
Westwood’s Approach & Analysis
Proprietary data tracks assets across the global energy value chain, including fixed and floating platforms, subsea & surface trees, onshore LNG terminals, FLNG terminals, pipelines, downstream facilities, and offshore wind turbines
Bespoke modelling allowed Westwood to gauge market size by expenditure, number of assets, and scale of asset by major country and region
Comprehensive review of small and medium-sized EPC firms served to identify suitable acquisition targets
Target profiling, inclusive of service review, market exposure, key clients, KPIs, facilities, employee numbers, and high level financial diligence
Facilitated an interactive workshop to help evaluate and establish relevant acquisition criteria
The Outcome & Benefit
Phase I included a high level pre-screening exercise across the energy value chain to identify specific growth sectors of interest as the client intended to execute an inorganic growth strategy
Having identified the sectors of particular interest, Phase II was an acquisition scouting exercise where Westwood identified potential targets that matched our client’s selection criteria
Floating LNG underpinned by robust, long-term fundamentals and associated engineering services was identified as the ‘best fit’ considering our client’s strengths and strategic objectives
