Makes sense. Suncor (to cite one example) has a market cap of $18 billion. And it sits on a tremendous geopolitically stable reserve - situated right next to the world's biggest oil consumer.

Meanwhile (to cite another example) Exxon last year had a *profit* of $45 billion. And it's reserves are in steep decline with no real chance of reaching replacement.

Doesn't take much imagination to see that some of the majors might see a rare opportunity here.
