So who is the strategic fit with all the layoffs and shutdowns? Weatherford is strong on the books but they are not going to be able to sustain growth as they can't grow the market share against the SLB, Halliburton, or even Baker.
I would bet on Baker, as they seem to be cleaning their books of distractions and getting to the core. I'm not sure WFRD has much to offer them at this point, as they may have in the past, but still would seem the best option for them -- just come other areas that would need to be divested.
