DEALMAKERS Brings Buyers, Sellers & Capital Providers Together

MIDLAND, TX--(Marketwired - Oct 16, 2014) - PLS, Inc. is hosting its DEALMAKERS Prospect and Property Expo in Midland, Texas on October 28th, at the Midland County Horseshoe, 2514 Arena Trail. This power-packed one-day oil and gas deal expo is the "go to" event for buyers, sellers and capital providers looking to end 2014 with year end investments, asset sales and prospect placements in the energy space.

This is PLS's second DEALMAKERS in the Permian Basin, the upstream sector's hottest market for prospects, properties, projects and M&A opportunities. PLS has a strong clientele in this active region which saw $7.0 billion in upstream deals announced during 2013 and a stand alone $7.0 billion commitment from Encana recently in their acquisition of Athlon Energy. "Of course, it won't only be Permian deals for sale," said Brad Jamison, Director of PLS. "The event will also showcase some Gulf Coast, Midcontinent and Rocky Mountain opportunities from sellers looking to tap Permian Basin operators with diversification ideas and money to spend."

PLS hosts DEALMAKERS prospect expos several times a year in Houston, Dallas, Denver, Calgary and Midland. The upcoming Midland show includes room for 80 + prospect and property exhibitors in a venue large enough for attendees to gain thorough knowledge of the market yet intimate enough to engage in meaningful, productive negotiation with sellers and exhibitors. DEALMAKERS also enables attendees to catch up on current plays and initiate contact with the industry's preeminent prospect generators, explorationists, property sellers, deal-takers, operators, non-operated working interest owners, capital providers, advisors, divestiture professionals, investment bankers and other energy executives active in buying and selling oil and gas assets. Capital providers in attendance at Midland DEALMAKERS will include Blue Rock Energy Partners, Five States Energy Capital and PetroCap.

Compared to events like Nape, PLS's DEALMAKERS EXPOS have consistently drawn a higher percentage of C-level executives, decision makers and buyers because of the simple focus on deals and capital.

Interested buyers, sellers or capital providers looking to exhibit are encouraged to contact Brad Jamison at 713-650-1212 or email dealmakers@plsx.com. Another DEALMAKERS will also be held in Denver, CO on November 3^rd at the downtown Marriott City Center. Buyers and sellers can also search www.plsx.com/Dealmakers for more information.
