I's called a 'green' loan if you secured a loan to refinance an existing loan... .... (reduce, reuse and recycle) .... if doesn't work, try rights issue
#Max, look at the quantum. Normally O&G hard to get long term loans. So 5Y is acceptable. So its refinancing of 600M taken in 2019 and balance of 105M refinanced to 2028 from 2023. Good part, BA is bankable.
The oil and gas sector is a cyclical one with recurring periods of boom and bust – as oil demand is relatively inelastic while oil supply is elastic. As we are now in a severely underinvested phase coupled with a record-high demand for oil in 2023-2024E, we view that the elevated oil price environment will be here to stay for the medium term.
We maintain our POSITIVE view on the sector with in-house Brent ASP assumptions of USD85/80/bbl for 2023/2024E.
BArmada. We think that BArmada is a “dark-horse” value-play within our coverage as the recent sell-off after the announcement of an unplanned shutdown of its heavyweight FPSO Armada Kraken in June 2023 looks pretty overdone. With the said FPSO now up and operational back to pre-shutdown levels, we think that BArmada will register sequential quarterly earnings growth in 2HFY23E and we expect record high profits for the group in FY24E (+58% YoY).
We also applaud the group’s discipline in its de-gearing exercise as it has successfully reduced its net gearing over 13 consecutive quarters to 0.7x as at end2Q23 (from a peak of 2.9x in end-1Q20) with more to come.
Reference is made to the announcement made by Bumi Armada Berhad (“Bumi Armada”) on 25 September 2023 on the Akia Production Sharing Contract (“Akia PSC”).
Bumi Armada wishes to announce that in relation to the Akia PSC, its wholly owned subsidiary Armada Akia B.V (“AABV”) (as Operator with 51% participating interest in the Akia PSC) and Pexco Tarakan N.V. (“Pexco”) (with 49% participating interest in the Akia PSC) have entered into a Joint Operating Agreement (“JOA”) forming a joint venture consortium on a 50:50 economic basis.
The JOA is a related party arrangement. Objektif Bersatu Sdn Bhd ("OBSB"), a wholly owned subsidiary of Usaha Tegas Sdn Bhd ("UTSB"), has a direct 34.61% interest in Bumi Armada. Tatparanandam Ananda Krishnan is a major shareholder of Bumi Armada (by virtue of his deemed interest through, inter alia, UTSB and OBSB), and also holds a 100% indirect interest in Pexco. No related party transaction announcement is required to be made by Bumi Armada at this stage as the relevant percentage ratio has not been exceeded.
Limited impact on oil prices for now Opec+ ready to support market stability if needed PETALING JAYA: The Gaza-based Hamas and Israel conflict that began on Oct 7 should have a limited effect on the disruption of global oil supplies for now, according to CGS-CIMB Research. The research house said Brent crude futures peaked at just US$88 per barrel on Oct 9, which is lower than the average price of US$92 per barrel for last month. Saudi Arabia has also announced that it would continue its voluntary one million barrels per day (mbpd) oil production cut into December 2023, with Russia also retaining its crude exports cuts of 0.3 mbpd also into the final month of the year.
Meanwhile, it said floating production storage and offloading (FPSO) companies like Yinson Holdings Bhd and Bumi Armada Bhd are unlikely to see incremental contribution to their earnings in the near-term given the fixed-rate nature of FPSO charters, but could benefit in the long-term from increased capital expenditure by upstream companies.
Been a while friends. I have exited all my position at more than 2x cost. Nothing wrong with Armada, it should continue to do well given its stable FPSO cashflow and gradually deleveraging balance sheet. Solid stock. All the best my friends. I'm shifting my portfolio to YTL Power at the moment.
NEW YORK, Oct 13 (Reuters) - Oil prices leapt nearly 6% on Friday, with Brent posting its highest weekly gain since February, as investors priced in the possibility that the conflict in the Middle East could widen as Israel began ground raids inside the Gaza Strip. Israel's announcement marked a shift from an air war to ground operations to root out Hamas fighters a week after the militant Palestinian group's deadly rampage in southern Israel.
Brent futures settled up $4.89, or 5.7%, at $90.89 per barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude gained $4.78, or 5.8%, to $87.69 a barrel. Both benchmarks posted their highest daily percentage gains since April. Brent also recorded a weekly gain of 7.5%, its biggest such increase since February. WTI climbed 5.9% for the week. The conflict in the Middle East has had little impact on global oil and gas supplies, and Israel is not a big producer. Investors and market observers, however, are assessing how it could escalate and what it might mean for supplies from nearby countries in the world's top oil producing region.
Some residents in Gaza were abandoning their homes on Friday to escape from the path of an Israeli onslaught, after Israel ordered more than a million people to leave the northern half of the territory within 24 hours. Hamas told them not to go. Iran's Oil Minister Javad Owji said on Friday oil prices are expected to reach $100 per barrel due to the current situation in the Middle East, according to the ministry's news agency SHANA…
Oct 18 (Reuters) - Oil prices surged on Wednesday as tension escalated in the Middle East after hundreds were killed in a blast at a Gaza hospital, sparking concerns about potential oil supply disruptions from the region. Brent crude futures advanced $1.75, or 2%, to $91.65 a barrel at 0609 GMT. West Texas Intermediate crude (WTI) futures were up $1.91, or 2.2%, at $88.57 a barrel. In earlier trade, both benchmarks gained more than $2 to touch their highest levels in two weeks.
Markets factored in risk premiums after hundreds of Palestinians were killed in a blast at a Gaza City hospital on Tuesday that Israeli and Palestinian officials blamed on each other. Jordan then cancelled a summit it was to host with U.S. President Joe Biden and Egyptian and Palestinian leaders. "The cancellation of a summit between Biden and Arab leaders reduces the likelihood of a diplomatic solution to the Israel Hamas conflict," Vivek Dhar, an analyst at Commonwealth Bank of Australia, said in a client note. Markets are nervous about a threatened Israeli ground offensive in Gaza. "A long occupation looms as the scenario that pushes Brent oil futures above $US100/bbl because it raises the risk that the Israel Hamas conflict expands and potentially draws in Iran directly," Dhar said. Biden is set to visit Israel on Wednesday to show support for the country in its war with Islamist militant group Hamas. The White House said he will make clear he does not want the conflict to expand.
Also supporting oil prices, U.S. crude stocks fell by about 4.4 million barrels in the week ended Oct. 13, according to market sources citing American Petroleum Institute figures on Tuesday. That was much steeper than a 300,000 barrel draw that analysts had forecast. Official U.S. government data is due later on Wednesday. On the demand side, China's economy grew faster than expected in the third quarter, official data on Wednesday showed, suggesting a recent flurry of policy measures is helping to bolster a tentative recovery. China's official data also showed that the country's oil refinery throughput in September hit a record daily rate, up 12% from a year earlier as refiners increased run rates to cater for strong demand for transport fuel over the Golden Week holiday and improving manufacturing. But analysts sounded cautious on China's economic growth as the real estate sector remains a drag. "The September data likely guarantee that China will hit its 'around 5%' growth target this year. That said, it will struggle to better it. The economic recovery is still in its infancy," Moody's Analytics economist Harry Murphy Cruise said in a note.
Meanwhile, U.S. retail sales increased more than expected in September, spurring expectations of another interest rate hike by the Federal Reserve by year-end. Interest rate hikes to curb inflation can slow economic growth and reduce oil demand. Venezuela's government and its political opposition on Tuesday agreed to electoral guarantees for 2024 presidential elections, paving the way for possible U.S. sanctions relief that could eventually boost oil supplies.
