		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Wednesday, March 2, 2011 Oil prices appear to be following the turmoil in Libya. Increased violence in the North African nation has cut at least half of its daily production of 1.6 million barrels of oil. This comes at an extremely inconvenient time for global economies… Globally, diesel and other distillates are in especially hot demand. JPMorgan (NYSE: JPM) projects they will account for over half the world’s demand growth in oil this year. It takes more heavier oils to produce diesel than it does Libyan light crude. And environmental rules everywhere are reducing the use of fuels with high sulfur content. Europe, for one, limited sulfur content in fuels on inland waterways and for some machinery this year. It plans to expand the ]]></description>

And Brazil and Argentina are getting the lion’s share of its interest. Chinese companies have spent over $15 billion just on energy deals alone Incorporatedluding: CNOOC ADR (NYSE: CEO), which paid $3.1 billion for a 50% stake in Argentina’s Bridas Energy in March. Sinochem Group, which paid $3 billion to Statoil ADR (NYSE: STO) for 40% of its Brazilian offshore field, Peregrino, in May. Sinopec ADR (NYSE: SNP), which made a $7.1 billion investment into the Brazilian subsidiary of Repsol YPF ADR (NYSE: REP) in October.

		<description><![CDATA[by Tony D’Altorio, Investment U Research Wednesday, November 10, 2010 China’s quest for energy has become a hot topic in recent years. Its search for energy resources has changed the global energy landscape… perhaps forever. This year in particular, its national oil companies have gone into overdrive in expanding. According to energy consultancy Wood Mackenzie, Chinese companies have spent $24.6 billion on overseas oil and gas acquisitions so far this year, with $11.4 billion into Brazil’s offshore oil fields alone. Altogether, they make up a fifth of the larger industry’s deal making in 2010. Yet less than two years ago, China’s national oil companies accounted for a mere 4% of mergers and acquisitions in the sector. Clearly, much has changed since then.

(PBR) or Petrobras S.A. – the largest integrated energy firm in Brazil and one of the largest in Latin America – bought a 30% stake in an offshore oil block from Repsol YPF (REP) and Statoil ASA (STO), Brazil’s oil regulator said. The offshore block, known as BM-C-33 block, is located in the Campos Basin off the Brazilian coast. Repsol and Statoil each hold a 50% interest in the block. The companies have each agreed to sell a 15% stake to Petrobras. Additionally, Petrobras also agreed to purchase a 20% stake in the BM-S-51 block from Repsol. We continue to have a positive medium- to long-term outlook on Petrobras for its encouraging portfolio of investments, particularly in Brazil’s so-called “pre-salt reservoirs&#8221; that lie below the Espírito Santo, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We have recently downgraded Repsol YPF S.A. (REP) ADRs to Underperform from Neutral. We see little reason for investors to hold Repsol, as we believe that the long list of challenges facing the company will further weigh on its valuation. These include weak reserves, low reserve lives and poor refining margins. While the company’s production volumes are increasing, refining margins were significantly lower during the last year, especially in the fourth quarter, dropping more than 80% as a result of narrower spreads on crude oil and oil products due to supply and demand forces. We believe that this imbalance between supply and demand will remain in place in the near term and negatively impact the bottom line. Though Repsol’s reserve replacement ratio showed signs of improvement (94% in 2009 vs. ]]></description>

Despite a 5.8% increase in production volumes, quarterly earnings missed drastically due to consistently weak natural gas prices and lower refinery margins. Estimate Revisions Trend We see a downtrend in estimate revisions. In the last 30 days, 3 of the 5 analysts covering the stock lowered their estimates for the full fiscal 2010, while no one moved in the opposite direction. In the last 7 days, one analyst lowered the estimate and no upside movements were made.

		<description><![CDATA[Spain’s largest integrated oil and gas company Repsol YPF (REP) revealed yeasterday a 2010 exploration plan for its Argentine counterpart – YPF. With a declining trend in proved reserve base in the past few years, the 2010 plan includes a broad goal of reversing this position along with modest investment. The company intends to define potential for unexplored blocks in Argentina and conduct offshore exploration in the Argentine Sea and Malvinas basin. It expects to invest approximately $100 million during the second half of 2010 to search oil in the Malvinas basin, 289 kilometers off the Argentine coast. The exploration will be conducted by a consortium led by YPF (owns a 33.5% stake), along with Pan American Energy (33.5%) and Brazil&#8217;s Petrobras (33%).

		<description><![CDATA[Spain’s largest integrated oil and gas company  Repsol  YPF (REP) entered into an agreement with the Bolivian Government to develop the Caipipendi block. This block is located in the Tarija and Chuquisaca regions, south of Bolivia. The block includes the Margarita and Huacaya fields, the latter being one of the 5 largest gas finds made worldwide in 2008. The block contains resources of 3.7 trillion cubic feet, which is equivalent to three years of Spanish gas demand. It will be developed and exploited by a consortium made up of Repsol (37.5% – the operator), BG (37.5%) and PAE E&#38;P Bolivia (25%). Repsol will invest 400 million euros (nearly $600 million) and raise its gas production sevenfold to reach a daily production of 14 million cubic meters in 2013. The reources ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[REPSOL YPF S.A. (REP) reported third-quarter earnings of 30 euro-cents per share (45 cents per ADR), compared to the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 43 cents and year-earlier earnings of 58 euro-cents (82 cents per ADR). While earnings was down year over year due to the steep decline in oil and natural gas prices, a sequential increase in net income (€859 million vs. €647 million or $1.23 billion vs. $975 million) shows the signs of recovery in the macro backdrop. Adjusted income from operations during the quarter totaled €859 million ($1.23 billion), down approximately 45% year over year, primarily reflecting the impact of lower oil prices and weak refining margins. Adjusted upstream operating income during the quarter was €302 million ($432 million), down approximately 51% from the year-earlier level due to ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Following the test on recently found gas resource in the shallow waters of the Gulf of Venezuela, Repsol YPF S.A. (REP) confirmed reserves of between 5.6 trillion and 7.8 trillion cubic feet of gas. With an estimated area of 33 square kilometers, it is the country’s largest discovery. Repsol (32.5% interest) partners with Italy&#8217;s Eni S.p.A. (E) and Venezuela&#8217;s state-owned oil company Petroleos de Venezuela SA (35%) for future production on this resource. While Venezuela aims to increase natural gas output to overcome the current deficit, Repsol wants to boost oil and gas production through new discoveries off the coasts of Brazil and Venezuela after four years of declining output. However, a challenging operating and contractual environment in Venezuela may create obstacles for developing new gas reserves. Moreover, the mandate ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Repsol YPF SA (REP) on Wednesday said it will invest approximately $1.6 billion in Bolivia over the next five years. This is to boost natural gas production in the country. Following the nationalization of the oil and gas industry in 2006, Bolivia needs investment in this sector, which has been scaled back since then. Repsol wants to speed up its investment by incurring approximately $300 million each year for the next five years. The investment is expected to be spent on drilling seven wells and expanding a processing plant. Repsol is a major investor in Bolivia and owns substantial reserves in that country. The company is targeting stable production growth, driven by its development projects in Trinidad and Tobago, Libya, Bolivia, Venezuela, Argentina and Ecuador. Like the Bolivian investment plan, ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Repsol YPF S.A. (REP) recently found a huge gas resource in shallow waters of the Gulf of Venezuela. The largest integrated oil and gas company in Spain said that the offshore field had an estimated area of 33 square kilometers and was 60 meters deep. Along with its exploration partner Italy&#8217;s Eni SPA (E), Repsol estimates that the discovery could hold between 7 and 8 trillion cubic feet of gas. This equals to more than five years of gas consumption in Spain. While the two companies will have a 32.5% interest each in all future productions, Venezuela&#8217;s state-owned oil company Petroleos de Venezuela SA would hold a 35% stake. Repsol is targeting stable production growth driven by pipeline projects in Venezuela, Trinidad and Tobago, Libya, Bolivia, Argentina and Ecuador. Long-term ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Spain’s largest integrated oil and gas company, Repsol YPF, S.A. (REP), will pay Venezuela $203 million to exploit the Barua-Motatan oil field. Repsol took the minority share of this oil field, which includes 432 square kilometers, after lawmakers voted for the transfer of that area to Petroquiriquire, a joint venture between Repsol and the Venezuelan Oil Corporation (CVP), a unit of Venezuelan state oil company PDVSA. Repsol has been pursuing talks for several years on acquiring an interest in Barua-Motatan, located near Petroquiriquire’s Mene Grande oil field in western Venezuela. Petroquiriquire was formed in 2006 as a 60-40 joint venture between PDVSA and Repsol to operate the Mene Grande oil field. With the addition of this field, the current production of 25,000 barrels per day could increase up to 100,000 ]]></description>
