In my opinion IAE will not get taken out for a couple of reasons: 1 To get management to sell should take a substantial premium (no debt, substantial cash flow at $55 plus net backs 1st quarter, some nice exploration potential), lowering the return for any potential buyer. 2 Probably the most important is the majors are positioning themselves out of the North Sea as they feel the easy fruit has been picked.
