At the time of the 2007 acquisition by IHS Markit, now part of S&P Global Commodity Insights, Norwalk, CT-based John S. Herold, Inc. (Herold), an information services company founded in 1948, provided online transaction databases and deal analyses essential to understanding and executing energy mergers and acquisitions and capital markets transactions.
The strategic acquisition of Herold augmented and strengthened our expertise throughout the oil and gas value chain. From the outset, the extensive well- and field-level data and worldwide resources of the company enhanced Herold's research, valuation and project analyses and allowed us to better serve our collective clients.
Today, S&P Global Commodity Insights,continues to deliver consulting, in-depth independent analyses and key financial and operational data on global oil and gas for a client base comprised of the world’s leading commercial and investment banks, and top institutional and investment money managers and virtually every major energy company.
