Always funny how Bumi Armada has a high beta (influenced by oil price fluctuations) when in reality, the business operations and profitability is not impacted by the day to day oil price swings.

Posted by Robert Waters > 9 hours ago | Report Abuse

I got tired of explaining: BAB independent of Brent. A few years wasted.
Let us follow the Brent Crude Oil Price and avoid arguing about it.

Brent up to $82 so Armada should be MYR 0.82.

Logical.

I agree with U Niki...but I think some say when Brent is high the chances of extension will be great and no issue of default by their clients.

also with new Akai can be a sweetener.

SP Energy is doing pretty well and may boost BA's future prospect as JV partner. BA has helped SP Energy built up their FPSO business and now they are helping back.

@nikicheong, partly agreed not to read so much on the direction of OnG price in the short term; but if OnG price stays high at longer terms above average production cost will have a good impact on all upstream and downstream counters, IMHO (in my humble opinion).
Points to ponder for FPSO operators:
- Most owners of FPSO built the facilities to 'lease' at daily rates 'inclusive' of full functioning of the facilities.
- Not all OnG fields require FPSO, only feasible for deep water and marginal fields.
- High risk for high return compared to a field with a Central Production Complex (CPC or CPP) with its own Satellites Platform (SP). The daily rates have to cater for this risk.
- Chances of reUse in other locations is not very feasible as each field has its own landing pressure and hydrocarbon composition and aging of equipment.
- Operation regulation. Example ESG, COP etc confirmation like Carbon Capture, Heat Recovery, Waste Water Treatment and Zero Flaring, etc
Just a few points to ponder for TradeAtYourOwnRisk..

last boost for the CNY, grab it before its too late...

Posted by Robert Waters > 2024-01-29 10:27 | Report Abuse

Yes. Good time to grab more.
The stock value just passed 200 day Moving Average.
Golden Cross is a 100% bullish indicator that many follow.

Also, Brent at 83.3 USD means that the short term target of BA is MYR 0.83.

collect slowly and sleep soundly while waiting for O&G play, hopefully it is not a value trap counter. Just need some news to spark a rush up (hopefully not a rush down).

Embark on #India's journey to economic prosperity!

#ONGC's flagship KG-DWN-98/2 Block sails confidently into the Final phase, poised to achieve full oil and gas production by mid-2024.

A monumental leap towards a resilient and self-sustaining energy sector.

Hope you had a good holiday. Welcome back.

Today some bad news. Brent has dramatically fallen to 78 USD.
We shall see if it affects the price.
New target is now MYR 0.78 in 90 days (based on the futures).

It went down 1 sen. That is 2% or about the same % as the drop it Brent.
We need to give some time to adjust to the lower crude future.

Yes, you did. And I was arguing that you needed to check financial figures, project prospects, etc in the past. But the overall O&G market still impacts us, like a low tide. I guess not much can be done today. Until next week.

No problem rohank. I think we are teasing you. In any case, today's action WAS a humbling experience.
MYR 0.535 at one time.
So low considering Kraken is OK and AS V is now online.

sometimes market not logical as BA is a FPSO provider and mainly earns from charter rates which is negotiated and usually quite stable, oil prices shouldnt really affect BA profitability esp short term, hibiscus is more tied to oil price than FPSO like BA or yinson

Charter rates may or may not be based on oil price. But Armada surely is.
Oil price stabilized and even went up a bit to $78.

Everyone here talking about trends, oil price etc. Okay yes they impact short term price fluctuations, but the baseline long term trend is informed by the underlying prospects of the business. For which, Bumi Armada has yet to deliver.

I wonder when will there start being an exodus of long-term investors.

Every other day, they post some nonsense initiative (that has zero bearing on their core business) on LinkedIn.

Hopefully there's more to come from them.

Posted by ageetkumar > 2024-02-08 10:48 | Report Abuse

The core business (FPSOs / FSOs /FSRU/ FLNG) is not easy to do anymore. Primarily due to lack of financing options. In fact there is an abundance of projects but very few takers as financing sources have dried up. The mainstream banks and financing institutions are reluctant to finance long term oil & gas projects. The new initiatives are there no out of the goodness of their hearts, but in hopes of making money from that. But the current management seems clueless on how to do this.

Happy Chinese New Year everyone.
Let us have some enjoyment knowing the share price stabilized.
Also Brent is above 80 USD.

I know very, very well it has no bearing on Armada.
But many investors do not. And they affect the price.
I wish them happy CNY too.
