Oil & Gas Sector

The above sector is another sector that could be benefited from the high crude oil price recently, where it is still trading at above USD81 per barrel.


EPIC is among the O&G stocks that attracts my attention. Strong balance sheet and monopoly of services in Terengganu are the main factors. However, the ability of the management is still a big question mark. You may refer to Whereiszemoola blog for details analysis. From buying a business perspective for mid-term, EPIC should be a good bet. It is set to enjoy Eastern Corridor as well, which will be launched by PM by end of October.


Another attractive O&G stock would be Petra Perdana. With the acquisition of additional 4 vessels, almost all research houses released reports that give a BUY call to Petra Perdana. Averagely, the target price for Petra is above RM6. As a result, it has 20% upside potential conservatively. Everything looks correct now and the emerge of high profile substantial shareholder should be able to push the stock to higher level quicker. Petra has strong support at RM5 at the moment.
