China National Offshore Oil Corporation: Operations in Canada
內容大綱
In 2005, China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) began investing in Canada, when it acquired 16.69 per cent equity of MEG Energy Corp., a private Calgary-based energy company. In 2011, it acquired OPTI Canada, a Canadian oil company that had gone bankrupt, followed in 2013 by the contentious acquisition of Nexen Inc., a Canadian oil and gas company. Despite this enticing potential market and the desire to fuel China's rapidly growing economy, CNOOC faced low oil prices, slow economic growth in Canada, fierce competition from other multinational oil companies, and pressure from environmental non-governmental organizations. Given these challenges, how could CNOOC achieve success in Canada?
