The problem in oilfield services
Field-services operators with surplus production equipment and spares whose fair market value is unknown until it's scrapped. Quotes take three to four days of manual back-and-forth, and without a fair-value benchmark, buyers overpay and lose deals to faster competitors.
- Surplus production equipment scrapped for pennies
- No fair-market view of idle field assets
