		<description><![CDATA[by Tony Daltorio, Investment U Research They don’t call Australia the lucky country for nothing. It must be luck to have such abundant amounts of energy, metals, minerals and agricultural commodities, not to mention residing so close to China and India, two countries with large populations and a seemingly insatiable appetite for such natural resources. And that luck shows again in the recently approved, multi-billion dollar, Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) project, which is spreading good fortune to the foreign companies involved in the venture and the investors who know that Australia is where it’s at… Australia currently has the 14th largest known gas reserve in the world, and many expect it to make the world’s top ten list in that category sooner than later. Dr. Graeme Behtune, the director ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, the U.S. Energy Department&#8217;s weekly inventory release showed a sharp drop in crude stockpiles. However, this piece of positive data was somewhat tempered by reports of increases in refined product supplies like gasoline and distillate fuels. The federal government’s Energy Information Administration (EIA) reported a 4.7 million barrels drop in crude inventories for the week ending September 11, far more than analyst expectations. This is the second successive week in which the crude drawdown has been more than originally anticipated. Major contributing factor to the inventory drop was a fall in crude oil imports. Current crude oil stocks, at 332.8 million barrels, are 14.1% above the year-earlier level and remain above the upper limit of the average for this time of the year (depicted in the first EIA chart ]]></description>

(CVX) and its partners announced the final investment decision on the massive Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) venture in Australia following the receipt of the necessary government approvals. The company said that its Australian subsidiary will proceed with the construction of the project later this year. Chevron holds a 50% operated interest in the A$43 billion ($37 billion) project, with the other partners being ExxonMobil Corp. (XOM) and Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA). The Gorgon gas fields, off the coast of Western Australia, are estimated to contain 40 trillion cubic feet of gas deposits and have an expected economic life of at least 40 years from the time of start-up.

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, we got a bullish report from the federal government’s Energy Information Administration (EIA), showing a surprise decline in crude stockpiles. However, the data also showed a buildup in gasoline and distillate inventories, thereby somewhat neutralizing the positive impact. In its weekly release, the agency reported a much bigger-than-expected 5.9 million barrels drop in crude inventories for the week ending September 4, as imports fell and refiners raised demand. This follows last week’s release, which also reported crude drawdown but were below expectations. Current crude oil stocks, at 337.5 million barrels, are 13.3% above the year-earlier level and remain above the upper limit of the average for this time of the year (depicted in the first EIA chart below).

		<description><![CDATA[Earlier today, Chevron Corp. (CVX) &#8212; the second-biggest U.S. energy company &#8212; entered into multiple deals to sell nearly 3 million tons of liquefied natural gas (LNG) per annum from its Gorgon venture in Australia. The company said that its Australian subsidiaries have signed three binding long-term Sales and Purchase Agreements to supply LNG to Japan and South Korea. As per the first contract, Chevron would provide 1.375 million tons of LNG a year to Japan’s Osaka Gas, while the second deal calls for the company to supply 1.1 million tons per annum to Tokyo Gas. Both the contracts span over a period of 25 years. The final agreement will see 0.5 million tons being exported to South Korea&#8217;s GS Caltex (50% owned by Chevron) for up to 20 years. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, the federal government’s Energy Information Administration (EIA) reported mixed inventory data. The crude drawdown was below expectations and distillate stocks were up more than anticipated. On the positive side, gasoline supplies dropped steeply and total U.S. oil demand over the last four-week period turned positive after a long time. In its weekly release, the agency reported a lower-than-expected 372,000 barrels drop in crude oil stockpiles for the week ending August 28, as a jump in imports offset a rise in petroleum demand. This follows last week’s report, which showed an unexpected rise in oil supply figures, missing estimates of a drop. Current crude oil stocks, at 343.4 million barrels, are 13.0% above the year-earlier level and remain above the upper limit of the average for this time of the ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oil major BP Plc (BP) has made a huge oil discovery in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico (GoM). The discovery well is located at its Tiber prospect, approximately 250 miles (400 kilometers) southeast of Houston and is in 4,132 feet (1,259 meters) of water. The well had oil in multiple Lower Tertiary reservoirs. The Tiber prospect is operated by BP, Petrobras (PBR) and ConocoPhillips (COP) with their working interest of 62%, 20% and 18%, respectively. Tiber is BP&#8217;s second significant discovery in the emerging Lower Tertiary play in the Gulf of Mexico, following its earlier Kaskida discovery in 2006. Kaskida is operated by BP, Anadarko Petroleum (APC) and Devon Energy (DVN). The discovery may signal new prospects in the deepwater Gulf of Mexico.

In its weekly release, the agency said that crude inventories rose 128,000 barrels from the preceding week, far off estimates that hoped for another drawdown, following last week’s encouraging data. Major contributing factors to the inventory buildup were a rise in domestic production and crude oil imports. Current crude oil stocks, at 343.8 million barrels, are 12.4% above the year-earlier level and remain above the upper limit of the average for this time of the year (depicted in the first EIA chart below).

		<description><![CDATA[Chevron Corp. (CVX), the second-biggest U.S. energy company, gained approval from the Australian environment ministry to start its Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) venture on the Barrow Island nature reserve. The decision is subject to conditions on managing and protecting local fauna, especially the endangered flatback turtle. Chevron holds a 50% operated interest in the $42 billion project, with the other partners being ExxonMobil Corp. (XOM) and Royal Dutch Shell PLC (RDSA). The government approval to Australia&#8217;s single largest natural resources project paves the way for a final investment decision by the Gorgon joint venture participants, once they get the nod for production licenses and construction plans.

		<description><![CDATA[The world’s largest offshore driller, Transocean Ltd. (RIG), bagged a 455-day contract for its ultra-deepwater semisubmersible rig Sedco Express from a subsidiary of Noble Energy Inc. (NBL). The contract is expected to commence in the third quarter of 2010 after the expiry of Sedco’s current contract as well as completion of maintenance work and mobilization. Transocean is expecting approximately $241 million revenue from this contract. A couple of weeks ago, Transocean&#8217;s ultra-deepwater drillship Discoverer Clear Leader started its operations in the U.S. Gulf of Mexico under a five-year contract with Chevron Corp. (CVX). Clear Leader features Transocean’s patented dual-activity drilling technology designed to enable parallel drilling operations from a single derrick that saves time as well as money in deepwater well construction in comparison to conventional rigs.

Commodities advanced.  Markets were buoyant through the early afternoon but the rally faded in the afternoon. The Dow Jones industrial average edged up 3.32 points, or 0.03%, to end at 9,509.28.  The Standard &#38; Poor’s 500-stock index fell 0.56 points to end at 1,025.57, and the NASDAQ fell 2.92 points, or 0.14%, to 2,017.98.  On the New York Stock Exchange, winners narrowly edged losers on volume of 1.23 billion shares.

		<description><![CDATA[Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke’s encouraging words about the economy and a jump in existing home sales sent US stock surging to their highest level this year and brightened hopes that an economic recovery is imminent.  Treasuries tumbled and corresponding yields rose sharply higher as investors turned away from the safety of government debt.  Gains were broad based with 29 of the 30 Dow Jones industrial average components recording gains.  Crude oil prices climbed on the back of economic recovery hopes, hitting a 10-month high of $73.89. US stock futures point to a moderately higher open on Monday.  Dow Jones industrial average futures rose 34, or 0.4%, to 9,523. Standard &#38; Poor&#8217;s 500 index futures rose 3.30, or 0.3%, to 1,028.50, while Nasdaq 100 index futures rose 2.00, or 0.1%, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chevron Corp. (CVX) reported better-than-expected second-quarter 2009 EPS of $1.10, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 95 cents per share. Contribution from increased production of crude oil and natural gas due to the start-up of new projects has more than offset the sharp decline in commodity prices. While a weak oil price environment may weigh on the stock over the coming weeks, given its strong pipeline of development projects and impressive recent exploration successes, the company&#8217;s long-term outlook has significantly improved. As such, we recommend an Outperform rating for Chevron shares. Zacks Investment Research View original at: Zacks.com News Feed]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A sharp rebound in Chinese shares helped erase yesterday’s slump and sent Asian stocks sharply higher Thursday, a day after Shanghai’s big fall ignited fears of a Chinese stock collapse and triggered a selling spree around the world.  Asian markets also drew comfort from an overnight recovery on Wall Street after a surprise drop in U.S. crude stockpiles lifted hopes for an economic recovery and sent investors back on the buying table. Shanghai&#8217;s main index jumped 126 points, or 4.5%, to 2,911.58, while Japan&#8217;s Nikkei 225 stock average climbed 179.41 points, or 1.8%, to 10,383.41.  Hong Kong&#8217;s Hang Seng rose 374.63, or 2%, to 20,336.36.  South Korea’s Kospi advanced 2% to 1,576.39. Stock futures pointed to a higher open on Wall Street Thursday.  Dow Jones industrial average futures rose 24, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last Week, Petroleo Brasileiro SA or Petrobras (PBR) posted negative second-quarter results, which were in line with expectations due to the huge slump in oil prices in 2009 from the last year. Fall in oil price from $109 per barrel in the first half of 2008 to $52 per barrel in the first half of 2009 had a strong effect on the company. Moreover, greater volumes of financing, of commercial hedge operations and the impact of exchange rate on foreign assets also hurt quarterly results. Net profit declined 20% to R$7.73 billion ($4.16 billion), down from R$9.72 billion in the second quarter of 2008. The company posted an EBITDA of R$17.51 billion compared to R$18.63 billion the year-ago period. However, oil and gas production in Brazil was up 6% year ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chevron Corp. (CVX) inked a five-year contract with Transocean Ltd. (RIG) for the use of a newly built ultra-deepwater drillship, Discoverer Clear Leader, in the Gulf of Mexico. The state-of-the-art vessel is the first of two new drillships to be commissioned for Chevron. The second vessel, Discoverer Inspiration, is expected to be ready in early 2010. Clear Leader features Transocean’s patented dual-activity drilling technology designed to enable parallel drilling operations from a single derrick that saves time and money in deepwater well construction compared with conventional rigs. Clear Leader is capable of drilling wells in 12,000 feet of water to a total depth of 40,000 feet. It offers advanced deepwater drilling facilities and will enable Chevron to expand the search for new domestic sources of energy. Chevron’s current oil and ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chevron’s (CVX) affiliate Cabinda Gulf Oil Company Limited (CABGOC) and the latter’s partners have made a successful discovery in Block 0. The 79-3XST1 discovery well is located in the Cabinda coastline in Angola. Through CABGOC, Chevron has a 39.2% interest in the find. Chevron is the operator of the Block 0 contractor group, which also includes SONANGOL E.P. (41%), Total E&#38;P (10%) and ENI Angola Production B.V. (9.8%). The 79-3XST1 well was drilled in March 2009 to a vertical depth of 13,000 feet. The well was tested from a single 150 feet perforated interval and flowed at a rate of 11.6 million cubic feet of natural gas and 2,550 barrels of liquid hydrocarbons per day. Chevron has also made a number of promising discoveries over the last two years in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Chevron Corporation (CVX) reported better-than-expected second-quarter 2009 earnings, driven by robust upstream volumes and improved downstream results. Earnings per share, excluding foreign-currency effects, came in at $1.10, above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $0.95. On a year-over-year basis, Chevron’s adjusted earnings per share plunged 62.8%, while revenue declined 51.6% to $40.2 billion, reflecting lower prices for crude oil and natural gas. Upstream Earnings Plummet: Increased Volumes Offset By Lower Prices Chevron’s total production of crude oil and natural gas increased by 5.2% from the year-earlier level to 2.7 million oil-equivalent barrels per day (BOE/d), driven by new project start-ups and the impact of lower prices on production entitlements. Partly offsetting these positives were factors such as OPEC quota restrictions, which curtailed production by approximately 35,000 Bbl/d during the quarter. Gains ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While downside risks remain, the overall outlook for the oil sector has improved in recent days, owing largely to the tentative signs of a supply response to anemic global demand. With demand falling sharply due to worldwide economic problems, inventories started building at a faster rate since last fall. In response, OPEC (which accounts for roughly 40% of all oil supplies) announced a number of production cuts. While there was ample skepticism early on regarding OPEC&#8217;s ability to enforce the announced cuts, recent evidence suggests a significant level of compliance within the cartel. As such, while oil prices over the coming weeks will track the outlook for the global economy, the commodity&#8217;s improved supply situation is expected to help prices consolidate around current levels. Natural gas, on the other hand, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Oil &#8211; U.S. State Department’s Newest Ally Who knew that oil, once the pariah of the western world, would have such a positive role in the Obama’ Administration. Senator Clinton couldn’t have asked for a better ally. Oil is bringing America’s strongest enemies to their knees and reminding Europe why Russia isn’t such a great neighbor after all. As prices have recently touched lows of $33.20 per barrel, inexpensive oil has caused severe problems for Venezuela’s Hugo Chavez and Iran’s President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Chavez just invited oil companies Chevron (NYSE: CVX), Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE: RDS.A) and Total S.A. (NYSE: TOT) back into the country. And Ahmadinejad is fighting re-election troubles caused by a government used to surpluses and excess cash. Apparently inefficient state-run energy companies can’t squeeze out profits ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[OPEC: Lots of Oil, No Power Oil prices have dropped. After OPEC announced that it would cut productions by 2.2 million barrels a day – it steepest cut ever. But in response, Wall Street has done little more than yawn. In fact, prices actually went down. The price of oil per barrel dropped again this morning to $39.90, under its 4-year low. Merrill Lynch’s oil guru, Francisco Blanch, thinks oil could reach $25, while we suggested $20 just last week. No one seems to know or have any control over where oil is going, least of all OPEC. It couldn’t stop oil from going to $147, perhaps its influence on the price of oil lost. Has it underestimated the amount of demand destruction occurring in the market as well? OPEC ]]></description>
