There are several reasons that I can think of as to why a large O&GC may be interested in Edge. Firstly Repsol are looking to get a foothold into the North America oil boom , secondly Edge have a very low cost to production ratio that is the envy of many large multi nationals (Expertise). thirdly the market cap of Edge is very low in relation to its proven reserves, fourthly they have a high impact low cost development programme with an upside in valuation. Also the wells are conventional (no fracking) in other words easy pickings at low cost.
