		<description><![CDATA[The U.S. Energy Department&#8217;s weekly inventory release showed a larger-than-expected increase in natural gas supplies, as mild temperatures in parts of the country have restricted the commodity’s requirement for power burn. The injection – the ninth in 2012 – has added to already bloated inventories. Gas stocks – currently some 40% above the benchmark five-year average levels – are at their highest point for this time of the year, reflecting low demand amid robust onshore output. This has constantly pressured spot prices that slipped to a 10-year low in April. However, the most recent build – though above expectations – was still significantly lower than the average for this time, cutting the surplus relative to last year and the five-year average.

		<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 attributed to an increase in the tally of both oil and natural gas-directed rigs. In particular, the natural gas rig count climbed for only the third time in 2012, while the oil rig count scaled another record high. 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), Helmerich &#38; Payne (HP), etc. in gauging the overall business environment of the oil and gas industry.

The injection – the fifth in 2012 – has added to already bloated inventories, thereby pressuring spot prices that slipped to a new 31-month low.

		<description><![CDATA[The U.S. Energy Department&#8217;s weekly inventory release showed an in-line build-up in natural gas supplies, as record-warm March temperatures across the country have restricted the commodity’s requirement for power burn. In fact, the first injection of 2012 has added to the already bloated inventories. Gas stocks – currently some 50% above benchmark levels – are at their highest point for this time of the year, reflecting low demand amid robust onshore output. The Weekly Natural Gas Storage Report – brought out by the Energy Information Administration (EIA) every Thursday since 2002 – includes updates on natural gas market prices, the latest storage level estimates, recent weather data and other market activities or events.

		<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 attributed to an increase in the tally of oil-directed rigs, partially offset by cutbacks in 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), Helmerich &#38; Payne (HP), etc. in gauging the overall business environment of the oil and gas industry.

		<description><![CDATA[OUTLOOK Crude Oil Signs of progress in resolving Europe&#8217;s long-running sovereign debt crisis and a tightening global supply picture in view of the geopolitical fallout over Iran&#8217;s alleged nuclear ambitions have been keeping oil prices at elevated levels. Partly offsetting this favorable view has been high U.S. crude stocks and worries about China’s growth outlook. As such, crude oil’s near-term fundamentals remain mixed, to say the least. The long-term outlook for oil, however, remains favorable given the commodity’s constrained supply picture. In particular, while the Western economies exhibit sluggish growth prospects, global oil consumption is expected to get a boost from continued strength in the major emerging powers like India, China and Brazil that continue to grow at a healthy rate. According to the Energy Information Administration (EIA), which provides ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[We are downgrading Talisman Energy (TLM) shares to Underperform from Outperform following the cut in its annual production target for the second time in about two months. TLM expects repair work in the North Sea and weather-related issues in Canada to hurt operations and lower average output for 2011. The dampened guidance, though not likely to alter volumes in a big way, raises questions about the company&#8217;s sustainable operational efficiency and execution abilities. Low gas prices and falling oil prices are also causes for concern. Given these headwinds, we expect shares of Talisman Energy to be under pressure in the near future. Our $12 price objective reflects a 2011 P/E multiple of 14.6x. TALISMAN ENERGY (TLM): Free Stock Analysis Report Zacks Investment Research]]></description>

According to Bloomberg, Beijing-based Sinopec and CNOOC Ltd. (NYSE: CEO) are “among Chinese companies that have bought almost $30 billion of Canadian assets in the past five years.” This is not only to meet rising energy demands in the world’s fastest-growing major economy, but also to gain access to shale drilling methods. “China has coal bed methane and shale gas resources domestically, so there has been some anticipation in the market that they would want to get ]]></description>

The South Africa-based petrochemicals group has seen its share price climb approximately 50% since the end of August last year, as investors have been buying the stock for its attractive fundamentals and positive outlook. The turnaround in fuel prices amid recent optimism about the economic recovery has added to this bullishness. Sasol, which has recently signed two transactions with Canadian energy explorer Talisman Energy Inc (TLM) to enter the North American shale gas market, has a Zacks #2 Rank (Buy rating) in the short run. The co-operation with Talisman is part of Sasol’s previously laid out plans for a significant outlay in upstream shale gas resources associated with its gas-to-liquids (“GTL’) projects in North America, apart from ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[by David Fessler, Energy and Infrastructure Expert Friday, February 4, 2011: Issue #1443 It was 1894 when a crew of workers in Corsicana, Texas were drilling for water… only to strike oil instead. The rest, as they say, is history – and Texas’ relationship with black gold since then is legendary. And today, there’s a brand new oil boom in Texas. Located just outside Dallas, Texas, the massive Eagle Ford oil and gas shale formation is roughly 20,000 square miles in size. It stretches some 400 miles long and 50 miles wide, from the Mexican border through San Antonio and up into East Texas. It’s believed to hold one of the largest oil and gas deposits in America, with a depth between 4,000 feet and 12,000 feet. And you’d better ]]></description>

(TLM) entered into a definitive agreement to form a 50/50 joint venture for the acquisition of additional acreages in this play. The news follows a deal between the leading U.S.natural gas producer Chesapeake Energy Corporation (CHK) and Chinese offshore major CNOOC Ltd. (CEO). Under this agreement, Chesapeake sold its one-third undivided interest in the Eagle Ford Shale to CNOOC for $2.16 billion. The Statoil-Talisman deal is to acquire 97,000 net acres of Eagle Ford Shale properties from Enduring Resources for a total consideration of $1.325 billion. Talisman will act as the initial operator.

The sale is expected to take place in five transactions. These transactions include the sale of roughly one million net acres of land in the greater Peace River Arch, central Alberta Foothills and greater Hinton areas in Alberta, as well as the company&#8217;s Ontario properties. The current production capacity of these assets is about 42,500 barrels of oil equivalent per day (Boe/d), consisting roughly 90% natural gas. Net proved reserves for the assets sum to 120 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMBoe). The sale equates to approximately $44,000 per Boe/d and $16 per Boe of proved reserves and seven times cash flow. These transactions are expected to be finalized ]]></description>

Earnings per share from continuing operations, excluding one-time items, came in at 7 Canadian cents (7 cents), below the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 14 cents and the year-ago earnings of 49 cents. However, revenue of C$1.2 billion was up 2.9% from the fourth quarter 2008 level. Earnings Surprise Trend It was the company’s third negative earnings surprise in the past four quarters. Talisman has performed poorly during this period, with its average earnings surprise being -27.0%. This implies that the company has missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 27.0% over the last four quarters.

		<description><![CDATA[Canadian energy explorer Talisman Energy Inc. (TLM) offered a glimpse of its 2010 production and capital spending plans. Talisman said that it will boost its capital expenditures by about 10% in 2010, as it focuses on promising shale gas programs. However, despite hiking the capital budget, Talisman expects the overall production rate to be flat from 2009 at around 425,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day. The Calgary-based firm has pegged its 2010 capital budget at about C$5.2 billion ($5 billion). About C$1.9 billion will be spent on North America, of which C$1.6 billion (or 84%) has been allocated towards shale gas properties (primarily in Pennsylvania Marcellus and Montney). Talisman plans to expend C$1 billion in the Marcellus Shale play in western Pennsylvania, where it expects to increase production from ]]></description>

Earnings per share from continuing operations, excluding one-time items came in at 15 Canadian cents (14 cents), a penny above the Zacks Consensus Estimate. However, on a year-over-year basis, Talisman’s adjusted earnings per share slumped approximately 77%, while revenues declined 42.3% to C$1.5 billion, hurt by lower prices of oil and natural gas. Volume Analysis Production during the quarter was down approximately 9.5% from the year-ago level to 401 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (MBOE/d), reflecting asset sales in Western Canada and maintenance downtime.

		<description><![CDATA[Yesterday, oilfield service provider Halliburton Company (HAL) announced the receipt of a two-year, $229 million contract from the Norwegian subsidiary of Talisman Energy Inc (TLM). The deal calls for Halliburton to provide drilling fluids and related services to all Talisman-operated fields on the Norwegian Continental Shelf. Halliburton further said that work on the contract, which includes several extension options, began in the third quarter of 2009. The world&#8217;s second-largest oilfield services company after Schlumberger Limited (SLB) will provide the required services through its Baroid product service line.
