"Panmure Gordon reiterated its "buy" recommendation for Lamprell with a 290p target price, ahead of the oil and gas industry services provider's interim result next week. The broker expects the firm to report net income of approximately 19.8 million dollars (12.8 million pounds) which compares to 31.6 million dollars (20.4 million pounds) in the comparable period a year earlier. Nevertheless, Panmure believes that these numbers are relatively unimportant as the outlook is improving with the group winning three very significant life boat orders in the year to date. This should allow the firm to increase its order book from 633 million dollars (408 million pounds) to in excess of 880 million dollars (567 million pounds)."

what a nice surge this has had today - do hope harry and others are still on board (as am i)

Regrettably not! Lost confidence in all the oil supply companies. Glad to hear you kept the faith.

me too.

but only half so. is that allowed ?

Hello, new high's

Is there a bid coming? no stopping it? at 25-30p p/e fair value is between 350-400p+, but it seems very bullish? maybe a takeover could be >500p

EVO TAKE The possible offers for Wellstream highlight the M&A potential for the oil service sector at this stage in the cyclical recovery

DETAILS Why now? sector fundamentals are improving with increasing IOC/NOC capex and a backlog of development projects. Earnings momentum is gathering pace with volumes starting to improve but pricing power has yet assert itself. Projects/contract sizes are getting larger and companies are looking for integrated offerings. Large oil service businesses are cashed up and looking for businesses to add to the geographic or technological footprint.

VALUATION AND RECOMMENDATION We highlight attractive businesses in a global context which could be interesting to large players. these include our key buys:- Hunting (HTG), Wood Group (WG.), Lamprell (LAM), Kentz (KENZ), Petrofac (PFC), and Hamworthy (HMY add)."
