Ezra; First-mover advantage in West Africa Company looking to increase its deepwater offshore activities 05:55 AM Jan 20, 2010 SINGAPORE - Offshore service provider Ezra Holdings is planning to increase its deepwater offshore activities in West Africa, which it sees as an expanding energy sector. The offshore services firm has already entered West Africa. The firm also said that opportunities in West Africa and the Gulf of Mexico have been overlooked, and it hopes to get a first-mover advantage in those areas. Ezra's managing director Mr Lionel Lee said in an interview yesterday: "If you look at the entire West African market, including Angola, Equatorial Guinea, Gabon as well as Nigeria, in a year, I think all these countries spend on service companies, in the region of $25 billion to $35 billion a year." To tap into the growing market, Ezra is positioning its overseas support services and equipment towards being able to handle deepwater operations. But within its home market of Asia, Ezra said its focus remains very much on shallow and mid-water exploration and drilling, which has largely been depleted in the West. While the firm cannot predict how much revenue it can gain from the emerging deepwater segment, it does say it is confident the offshore support sector will be kept busy for the foreseeable future amidst rising bid volumes. "Oil companies, due to the lack of activity over the past one year, they are trying to catch up on things such as developing their fields. So the next year does look extremely bright," said Mr Lee. The company also announced yesterday that its new Energy Services unit has clinched two landmark contracts totalling about US$80 million ($108.5 million). www.todayonline.com |

Successful Alliance As global markets open up and competition grows, midsize companies need to be increasingly creative about how and with whom they align themselves to go to the market. Strategic Alliances means "cooperation between groups that produces better results that can be gained from a transaction. Because competitive markets keep improving what you can get from transactions, an alliance must stay ahead of the market by making continuous advances." Ezra knew above very well, and boosted the bottom line by a combined US$7.3 million profit gain (+303% vs 1Q'09) in its share of profits in associated and joint venture companies. jmv (",)

For example, the deepwater subsea services projects generated in the first quarter were less assets intensive and more service oriented stage - which produce lower revenue typically, Ezra said. Q1 revenue, however, was lower, falling 46 per cent to US$61 million, mainly on lower year-on-year recognition of engineering projects undertaken by marine services. But CIMB was unfazed by the revenue drop. 'We note that recognition is based on project milestones and there is no cause for concern,' CIMB said. It is also optimistic about further gains as EOC's second FPSO comes online.

Most broking firms are bullish on this counter. So no need to panic - it is only a technical correction.
