China's CNOOC drops bid for Unocal - Oil & Energy - MSNBC.com: "China's CNOOC Ltd. said Tuesday it has withdrawn its $18.5 billion cash offer for Unocal Corp., stating it considered raising its bid, and 'would have done so but for the political environment in the U.S.'
CNOOC's withdrawal frees the way for Chevron Corp. to clinch its $17.4 billion bid for El Segundo, Calif.-based Unocal."
They even managed to sway the Chinese. The oil folks are powerful eh?
