Would you mind to point out why this counter is so encouraging on buying in term of fundamental. What is its future outlook? I understand the business of this counter but i don't know how to rate whether its potentially good in prospect. Is it simply because O&G industry is rated as outperform now or the counter will going to get any contract? Thanks in advance for your time to clarify on my doubts if you don't mind.
Increasing energy demand continues to keep oil prices elevated, prompting Petronas to develop fields that might have been considered economically unfavourable just a few years ago. To expand Malaysia’s hydrocarbon resource base, Petronas has budgeted RM300bn over the next five years, translating into an annual capex of RM60bn, a new high.
Marginal field development is one of the ETP initiatives that have been put in place to unlock the numerous reservoirs in the Malay basin and arrest the country’s production decline. The development is expected to keep the ball rolling for the sector, which contributed a substantial 36% to the government’s revenue in 2011.
A high oil price backs Petronas’s various initiatives and gives it and other producers more confidence to open their wallets. Billions of dollars are being committed to new projects as the national oil company aims to exploit new reserves and strives to get the most from mature and marginal field assets. The development of marginal fields augurs well for the upstream players whose role has been somewhat limited to that of service providers in the past. This initiative, coupled with the implementation of a new tax scheme, could help Malaysia produce more E&P companies and put the country on the map when it comes to marginal field capability.
With more than 20 fields available for development, there is much more work to come. A strong partnership and ownership of critical assets allow efficient and timely execution of projects. For local service providers that are going beyond their normal scopes of work, finding the right partner for technical and commercial fit is the real challenge as marginal field development is a relatively new area for them. If the marginal field development is executed successfully, Malaysian upstream oil & gas companies can become globally competitive.
Thanks for the enlighten excelyou & bursabulltrader. Really informative. Now i have better understanding on O&G sector than before. Appreciated a lot guys!
PUTRAJAYA: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Razak today announced that Petronas Carigali Sdn Bhd and Lundin Oil have jointly discovered additional oil reserves, under a production sharing contract, (PSC) at Block PM 307 of the Bertam oilfield.
He said the oil field, located 160 kilometres offshore Peninsular Malaysia, is opposite the state of Pahang at the depth of 76 metres.
PM 307 PSC is operated by Lundin Malaysia which holds a 75 per cent interest and Petronas holds the remaining equity.
"This is very significant because we never discovered oil in commercial quantity at Penyu Basin and this is a major breakthrough.
"Based on the findings of commercial and technical feasibility studies, crude oil production will begin at the oil field in the third quarter of 2014 with a projected output of between 17,500 and 20,000 barrels per day," Najib told reporters after chairing the Biotechnology Implementation Council meeting here today.
The Prime Minister said with the additional discovery, the Bertam oilfield is estimated to have oil reserves of 64 million barrels.
A high oil price is likely to increase travelling costs. Airlines suffer, etc etc .... everything becomes expensive and finally recession if left unchecked.
Pahang’s gush of excitement: We continue to have positive expectations for the oil & gas sector and maintain our Overweight call. Petronas’s 5-year RM300bn capex should keep the excitement level high in a sector that is a major revenue earner. Our top picks are SapuraKencana for big caps and Perisai for small caps.
What Happened: Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak announced today that Petronas Carigali and Lundin Oil have discovered additional oil fields, under a 25:75 production sharing contract, at Block PM 307 of Pahang’s Bertam field. Production will begin in 3Q14 with a projected output of 17,500-20,000 barrels per day. This is the first oil discovery in Pahang.
What We Think: This is a positive development given that the projected output could lift Petronas’s annual production of oil and condensate by 2.7-3.2%. Also, the discovery could present new opportunities for local oil & gas companies. Potential early winners are likely to be marine support providers such as Perdana Petroleum and Alam Maritim. Intensifying exploration activities is one of the government’s Economic Transformation Programme (ETP)initiatives.
What You Should Do: Stay invested. We expect more domestic activities as Petronas strives to boost Malaysia’s flagging production. The national oil company’s capex should benefit a wide range of local service providers. We expect all-time net profit highs in CY12-14 for Bumi Armada, Dialog, Perisai, Petronas Dagangan, SapuraKencana and Wah Seong.
In addition to the tax incentives (detailed in our budget report) announced in the budget, Petronas reiterated its commitment on capex spending at the 2014 Offshore Technology Conference Asia. Datuk Wee Yiaw Hin, Petronas exploration and production vice president reaffirmed that capex spending relating to production sharing contracts (PSC) alone will be RM183bn, over the next 5 years. In addition to the PSC spending, investment in the Refining and petrochemical integrated development (Rapid) will be RM60bn. Rapid is currently at the engineering stage with earth works expected to start next month (BT). In addition to the four partners currently in RAPID, Petronas is now selecting the partners and licences for activities within the complex. We reiterate our overweight call and maintaining the view that focused spending to resuscitate and/or expedite O&G production will benefit selected O&G players as CAPEX spending and RSC disbursement intensifies in 2H2012 and 2013. Top picks in order of preference whereby all would benefit from the above; SapuraKencana (TP: RM2.77 BUY, 20x FY01/14 EPS of 13.4 sen/share), Dayang (TP: 2.65 BUY, 14x FY13 EPS of 19 sen/share), Perisai (TP: RM1.60 BUY, 16x FY13 EPS of 10 sen/share), Uzma (TP: RM2.10 BUY, 10x FY13 EPS of 21 sen/share), Wah Seong (TP: RM2.10 13x FY13 EPS of 16 sen/share).
Perisai Petroleum Teknologi Bhd has scheduled to release its unaudited financial results for the third quarter ended 30 September 2012 on Wednesday, 21 November 2012.
dear excelyou thank you very much for all the very detailed information you provide and also for some of the other counters . please keep up the good work.
As I mentioned at 1.02 to dive in but many ignored. It will end at 1.09 or 1.10 but TP at 1.25 in month end. Foreign funds and domestic are buying it. Buying rate very high it tells the price is going up... Let's rock perisai....
This book is the result of the author's many years of experience and observation throughout his 26 years in the stockbroking industry. It was written for general public to learn to invest based on facts and not on fantasies or hearsay....
