(RIG) reported weak fourth quarter and full-year 2011 results, hurt by the lingering effects of Gulf of Mexico tragedy, steeper operating costs and high interest expense. Earnings per share, excluding expenses associated with the Macondo well incident, Aker Drilling acquisition costs, gains from asset sales and other minor items, came in at 19 cents, a penny short of the Zacks Consensus Estimate and significantly behind the year-ago adjusted profit of 76 cents. For the full year, earnings per share, excluding one-time costs, were $1.45, down 1.4% from our projection of $1.47 per share. Comparing year over year, the reported results declined heavily from $6.00 earned in the prior year.

		<description><![CDATA[In May 2008 a call from a major brokerage was heard round the world. It was the “super spike” in the price of oil which called for prices to dramatically increase from the $115 level to an unthinkable $150-$200 a barrel. This call came from the same analyst that three years earlier saw $100 barrel crude when sweet Texas tea was hovering close to $60. The earlier call was also a somewhat unthinkable prospect. Recently, we got another call from the same brokerage… just a different analyst this time. The call isn’t quite the same, but the idea is. Oil prices are expected to move higher. We will leave the details of Iran or supply and demand out of this discussion and focus on how we can best position our ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 10/14/11 While the earnings season kicked off this past week, only 38 firms reported. The game really gets under way next week, when we will get reports from 336 firms, including 99 members of the S&#38;P 500. Thus, by the end of the week we will have a very good idea of how the overall season will go. Not only will there be a lot of reports, but many of those we get will be very important ones. The table at the end of this report reads like a who’s who of American industry, including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Citigroup (C), General Electric (GE), Goldman Sachs (GS), IBM (IBM), Intel (INTC) and McDonald’s (MCD). And that&#8217;s just the first half of the alphabet! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Offshore drilling giant Transocean Ltd. (RIG) recently issued a monthly ‘Fleet Update Summary’ covering the company’s drilling rig status and contract information. As per the report, Transocean secured additional work for four of its mid-water rigs, with three of them getting higher rates. The company currently has 28 mid-water floaters – capable of drilling in water depths of approximately 300 feet to 4,500 feet – that makes up around 20% of Transocean&#8217;s revenue. The Transocean Legend semi-submersible drilling rig has been hired by ConocoPhillips (COP) to conduct operations offshore Australia until October 2012 at a dayrate of $293,000, down $5,000 from the last contract with Eni SpA (E). Another semi-submersible drilling rig, the GSF Arctic I, will work for Oslo-listed independent explorer Panoro Energy in Brazil from February 2012. The ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We have maintained our Neutral recommendation for Diamond Offshore Drilling Inc. (DO) given its solid fundamentals and financial disciplines, partially mitigated by stringent regulations as well as the lingering effects of the Gulf of Mexico (GoM) drill ban and related U.S. policies. Texas-based Diamond Offshore is a major contract driller, providing comprehensive offshore drilling services to the global energy industry. We believe Diamond Offshore exhibits long-term earnings growth visibility based on its strong leverage to the offshore deepwater drilling market. Again, the gradual improvement in the GoM drilling market, particularly after the deepwater drilling ban was lifted, as well as better bidding activity, will prove beneficial for a contract drilling company like Diamond Offshore. The companies in the offshore deepwater drilling sector are experiencing improved market conditions. Hence, a gradually ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Earnings Preview 7/15/11 Second quarter earnings season is now under way, but things really start to move into high gear next week. There will be 348 firms reporting, and 108 of those are in the S&#38;P 500. By next Friday we should have a very good handle on how the overall earnings season will go. The firms reporting this week are sort of like a who&#8217;s who of U.S. industry including: Apple (AAPL), American Express (AXP), Bank of America (BAC), Caterpillar (CAT), General Electric (GE), International Business Machines (IBM), Intel (INTC), McDonald&#8217;s (MCD), Schlumberger (SLB) and Verizon (VZ). That is an interesting cross section of U.S. business. We have a relatively light economic data calendar, so earnings should be front and center, along with the sovereign debt situations on both ]]></description>

(BHI) reported a rise in the U.S. rig count (number of rigs searching for oil and gas in the country). This can be primarily attributed to an increase in the tally of oil rigs. The Baker Hughes rig count, issued since 1944, acts as an important yardstick for drilling contractors such as Transocean Inc. (RIG), Diamond Offshore (DO), Noble Corp. (NE), Nabors Industries (NBR), Patterson-UTI Energy (PTEN) and Helmerich &#38; Payne (HP) in gauging the overall business environment of the oil and gas industry.

		<description><![CDATA[Norway’s Statoil ASA (STO) has discovered oil and condensate in the North Sea’s Krafla West prospect. Situated around 26 kilometers south-west of the producing Oseberg South find, the discovery well encountered hydrocarbons in two columns with a total thickness of 300 meters. Initial calculations show that Krafla West could be holding recoverable reserves between 12.6–37.7 million barrels of oil equivalent (mmboe). The recent discovery, drilled by semi-submersible Ocean Vanguard, comes in the wake of another discovery at the Krafla prospect last month. Both discoveries are estimated to have combined proven reserves of about 50–75 mmboe and may turn out to be highly profitable. This is considered to be a significant figure in a near-field context. In the latest discovery, Statoil is the operator of the licence with a 50% stake. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A wholly-owned subsidiary of Dril-Quip, Inc. (DRQ) has earned a contract worth approximately $39 million from Murphy Sabah Oil Company, Ltd. Under the term of the contract, Dril-Quip’s subsidiary, Dril-Quip Asia Pacific PTE Ltd. will deliver drilling and production equipment to the Kikeh Dry Tree Spar Platform, located offshore Malaysia in approximately 1,330 meters of water. Dril-Quip will supply a drilling riser, top tensioned production risers, tensioners, tieback connectors, specialty joints, surface wellheads and production trees to the Malaysian platform. The delivery of these systems is scheduled to begin in 2012. Kikeh field, discovered in July 2002, was the first deepwater oil field to achieve production offshore Malaysia. Located in Block K offshore Malaysia, Kikeh has a water depth of 4,425 feet. The field commenced production in August 2007. According ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In its weekly release, Houston-based oilfield services company Baker Hughes Inc. (BHI) reported a rise in the U.S. rig count (number of rigs searching for oil and gas in the country). This can be primarily attributed to an increase in the tally of oil rigs, somewhat offset by a fall in the natural gas and miscellaneous rig counts. The Baker Hughes rig count, issued since 1944, acts as an important yardstick for drilling contractors such as Transocean Inc. (RIG), Diamond Offshore (DO), Noble Corp. (NE), Nabors Industries (NBR), Patterson-UTI Energy (PTEN) and Helmerich &#38; Payne (HP) in gauging the overall business environment of the oil and gas industry.

		<description><![CDATA[We are retaining our Neutral rating on Loews Corporation (L), as the company’s performance was weighed down by Lower earnings at Diamond Offshore reflecting reduced day rates and utilization coupled with slightly lower earnings at CNA Financial Corporation. Loews Corporation reported first-quarter 2011 adjusted net income of 89 cents per share, marginally the Zacks Consensus Estimate and lower from the year-ago earnings of 97 cents. Counting on the positives, CNA Financial&#8217;s agreement to transfer its legacy asbestos and pollution liabilities to National Indemnity, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway (BRKA, BRKB) effectively eliminates CNA&#8217;s asbestos and pollution reserve risk, as well as any reinsured dispute and credit risk, thereby reducing earnings volatility. Also, CNA’s merger with CNA Surety, which is expected to complete by the end of June this year, will help ]]></description>

World oil consumption, though, increased by 3.1% to hit 87.382 million B/D. Due to the inclusion of non-oil additives in the consumption figures (especially ethanol) and some unavoidable differences in definitions, consumption always runs higher than production, so don’t read the differences in levels as meaning that world oil inventories fell by over 5 million barrels per day. The differences in the level of change are, however, worth looking at. Changes Over Longer Term Since 2000, world production has risen by 9.6% and world consumption has risen by 14.1%.

Interestingly, for the third week in a row there continues to be more rigs drilling for oil than gas – the first time this has happened since 1995 – as companies look to capitalize on soaring oil prices, which are currently trending at around $100 a barrel. The Baker Hughes rig count, issued since 1944, acts as an important yardstick for drilling contractors such as Transocean Inc. (RIG), Diamond Offshore (DO), Noble Corp. (NE), Pride International (PDE), Nabors Industries (NBR), Patterson-UTI Energy (PTEN) and Helmerich &#38; Payne (HP) in ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Rowan Companies Inc. (RDC) recorded adjusted first-quarter 2011 earnings of 49 cents per share, breezing past the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 30 cents but showing deterioration from the year-earlier profit of 56 cents. Total revenue improved 15.8% year over year to $364.3 million in the reported quarter, but failed to match up to our expectation of $401 million. Operational Performance The company’s drilling operations generated revenues of $250.0 million in the quarter, down 24.5% year over year, mainly due to lower average day rates. However, the gross drilling margin decreased to 43% from 59% in the year-earlier quarter. Operating income plunged substantially by 70% to $41.6 million from the year-earlier level. Rowan&#8217;s manufacturing operations’ external revenues jumped 13% on a year-over-year basis to $114.3 million. Gross manufacturing margin dropped to ]]></description>

In particular, there were more rigs drilling for oil than gas – the first time this has happened since 1995 – as companies look to capitalize on soaring oil prices. Crude prices continue to march higher and are currently trending at around $111 a barrel. This can be mainly attributable to concerns that the unrest in Libya will boil over to other oil rich nations in the Middle East and lead to a supply shortfall. The Baker Hughes rig count, issued since 1944, acts as an important yardstick for ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We maintain our Neutral recommendation on Rowan Companies Inc. (RDC) given its impressive fourth-quarter 2010 results, which comfortably beat both earnings and revenue estimates. We remain on the sidelines owing to the possible oversupply of global jackups in the next few years, thereby reflecting downside pressure on jackup rates. Rowan’s better-than-expected fourth quarter results mainly driven by improvements in its drilling and manufacturing operations. The company’s contract drilling as well as manufacturing improvements were attributable to proficient cost controlling, accompanied by outperformance in the mining products group, for which Rowan expects demand to perk up in 2011. We view Rowan as the key premium jackup company in the bifurcated shallow water market. The company’s premium high-specification rig fleet enjoys greater utilization than most of the other shallow-water fleets. We believe ]]></description>
