Energy majors Exxon Mobil Corp and Royal Dutch Shell are among the suitors advancing to the next round of bidding for Newfield Exploration Co’s Malaysian and Chinese oil and gas fields valued at about $1.2 billion, people familiar with the matter said.
Newfield and Hess Corp are among a number of U.S. energy companies unloading ageing and less productive oil and gas fields to invest in more strategic and profitable projects, particularly in and close to their home markets. The moves are driven in part by activist shareholders.

Dateline 2013-07-31, Reuters:
Investors sold off shares in Malaysian oil and gas services firms after Reuters reported state-owned Petronas will start a planned $19 billion petrochemicals complex in 2018, signalling a delay in awarding work contracts for the massive project.
Malaysia’s top ten oil and gas services firms by market capitalisation have been popular with investors this year, soaring an average 55 percent so far, well ahead of the local bourse’s 5.2 percent gain.
News of a further delay to the refinery and special chemicals project took some wind out of the sector, which has been expanding rapidly to capture regional deepwater exploration and production jobs and benefit from Petronas’ $93 billion capital spending in 2011-2015.

So fast? This is how you make money. The Edge, Dateline 2013-07-30:
Sona Petroleum Bhd said today it has received a number of proposals for possible acquisition targets.
“We have received quite a number of proposals from the regions of interests,” managing director Datuk Seri Hadian Hashim told a press conference today at the listing ceremony of Sona.
“The team will have to go through the proposals when the listing is over,” he said.
Sona Petroleum — a special purpose acquisition company (SPAC) which acquires assets in the exploration and production phases of the oil and gas value chain – has said it is setting its sights to acquire assets in the Middle East, Africa and Southeast Asia.
Hadian did not offer more details but said Sona is also likely to make ventures into acquisitions of exploration and development assets when “there is profitability and when the opportunities arise”.

Had the oil and gas of Sabah not been swindled away by the Barisan Nasional federal government, today her people probably would not have to endure the agony of having to line up for hours and hopping from one gas station to another for diesel.

Why do we say it was illegally taken away?
