CALGARY, March 3 (Reuters) - Canadian Natural Resources
CNQ.TO played down the prospects of a ramp up in takeover
activity in the sector this year, saying the gap between buyers
and sellers' expectations remains an impediment.
"I think there's still too big a gap between sellers'
expectations and what the buyer wants to pay. We look at every
asset that comes through our core areas. I don't see us being
that active although we do always look," the company's President
Steve Laut told analysts on a conference call on Thursday.
