OSK Oil & Gas Sector Stock Picks, Feb 2012


O&G

As jobs visibility improves, 2012 should generally be a better year for the Malaysian O&G industry compared to 2011. This year and next year’s focus should still be on marginal oilfields. OSK expects the overlap of marginal oilfield and deepwater activities to boost O&G services providers’ utilization rates to their peaks.

The development of onshore O&G projects would also continue to hog the headlines moving forward.

OSK Maintains Overweight on the sector, with Kencana Petroleum and Dialog Group being the top picks.

Below are the target prices and ratings for selected Oil & Gas stock.

OSK Oil & Gas Sector Stock Picks, Aug 2011

O&G

OSK remain OVERWEIGHT on the O&G industry and Buy calls on both Coastal and Dayang.

OSK like Coastal for its mergers and acquisition story. OSK re-iterate their view that it would be a matter of time before Coastal finds itself a suitable partner for M&A purposes.

OSK also like Dayang due to it’s stable, recurring income. This is because oilfield and platform maintenance are all-year-round jobs and having a slice of this business pie is always better than getting one-off jobs as they provide assurance of future earnings sustainability
