(Bloomberg) -- Global oil & gas capex cuts trending to
exceed 15% y/y drop seen in 2009, only this time “without a
rebound” in 2016, JPMorgan says in note.
* U-shaped rather than V-shaped oil price recovery may lead to
multi-year down-cycle
* Raises Gulf Marine Services to overweight, PT cut 27% to
120p; says co. has high 2015 rev. coverage, high exposure to
resilience of Mideast NOC opex spend
* Cape cut to neutral, PT cut 42% to 203p; has risk of work
deferral in U.K. offshore, low (50%-60%) rev. coverage
* CGG cut to underweight, PT down 47% to EU3.80, sees seismic
co.’s “asset heavy” Acquisition & Equipment businesses to
fare poorly
* Tecnicas Reunidas cut to underweight, PT cut 38% to EU29;
sees shrinking bid pipeline, premium valuation difficult to
justify
* Consensus ratings for select U.K.-listed oil svcs names led
by Gulf Marine with 4.7 rating on 5-point scale, followed by
AMFW 4.05, Cape 4, Lamprell 3.8, Petrofac 3.6, Weir 3.5:
