What It Means for Subcontractors
- Potential new work opportunity - Asset sales often mean new operators who may need different service providers or ramp up activity levels
- Watch for payment delays - Companies divesting assets may slow payments to contractors as they manage cash flow during transitions
- Liability concerns - The $6.1 million liability on properties generating under $800K annually suggests potential environmental or abandonment issues that could affect future work scope
