Auctions remain a popular method for buying and selling oilfield equipment, offering benefits to both parties according to Jim Richie, partner and chief auctioneer at Superior Energy Auctioneers. While buyers can control their maximum spending and sellers can set minimum prices, the competitive nature of auctions often drives prices higher than asking prices. Following the COVID-19 pandemic, truck and road-related equipment prices soared due to supply chain issues, though they've since normalized as new vehicle production resumed.
The market currently features abundant drilling, service, and downhole equipment available for auction, attracting global interest. Richie cites the liquidation of Golden State Drilling, a 47-year-old California company, as an example of the international appeal, with inquiries coming from Kazakhstan, Dubai, Australia, Europe, and South America, demonstrating strong worldwide demand for oilfield equipment.
Oil prices fell sharply Monday, setting the stage for U.S. average gasoline prices to potentially drop below $3 per gallon for the first time since 2021, with the U.S. presidential election approaching. According to GasBuddy data, regular unleaded gas averaged $3.08 per gallon Monday afternoon, down nearly 13 cents from a month ago and 40 cents below last year's prices.
With refinery maintenance season nearing its end and global supplies remaining plentiful, OPIS analyst Tom Kloza sees "no real catalyst" for gas prices to rise. CIBC Private Wealth's Rebecca Babin suggests prices should remain stable barring any disruptions from geopolitical or weather events, as long as crude prices stay low.
