North American Risks Lead Our Forecasts Lower Ratings unchanged, lowering our estimates and price targets. We are

lowering our estimates and price targets across oil service shares to reflect heightened risk to upstream activity from North American operators due to moderating commodity prices, decelerating upstream cash flows, and tighter capital markets. Although negative estimate revisions may lead volatility to persist in oil services shares, we see lowered expectations largely discounted into shares that have fallen 30-50% since July. Given that current valuations screen attractively against reduced earnings estimates, lower growth, and higher risk adjusted forecasts and price targets, we anticipate oil services shares will trade higher into the end of the year. We continue to like SLB and BHI in large caps, DRQ and NBR in small/mid. caps, and RIG, SDRL, and DO among offshore drillers.

North American activity at risk from tougher conditions. Our estimate

revisions largely reflect risks to North American activity from smaller operators in the face of lower cash flows from weakening commodity prices, funding gaps for their spending plans, and reduced access to capital from risk-averse capital markets. To reflect these risks, we are lowering our 2012 North American rig count forecast. (pgs. 3 & 12)

Pressure pumping sees biggest risk from slower growth. With pressure

pumping capacity growing from 10m HP in 1Q11 to over 17m HP by the end of 2012 according to our bottoms up analysis, we see the market reaching a balance in mid-2012 under our reduced rig count forecast. As supply balances demand, we anticipate the market will maintain its service intensity, but yield its pricing gains garnered since 2009, leading estimates lower.

Conclusion of 2011 North American budget campaigns may prove a negative catalyst. We see a rally in oversold oil services shares into the end of the year, as the impetus to spend the remainder of 2011 budgets may support 4Q11 North American activity and ease concerns of fearful investors. If WTI prices continue to hover just above project breakeven levels in the $70-$80 range, European credit concerns continue to tighten capital markets, and funding gaps persist, 2012 budgets may arrive with more cautious spending targets. If so, a deceleration of upstream activity and rig counts may arrive in 1Q12, creating a negative catalyst for oil service shares.

International activity outlook more stable. Aside from the UK, where a crop

of E&P companies need financing to develop prospects in the North Sea, we see less risk to international upstream activity from funding gaps and financing needs in tighter capital markets. Cash flow support from higher Brent prices and prospect of spending from larger, better capitalized independent oil companies, national oil companies, and OPEC members looking to maintain spare capacity suggest a positive trajectory for upstream spending. Meanwhile, strong tendering for offshore rigs in international basins continues to provide comfort for our positive international outlook.

Key Upstream Spending Drivers: Cash Flow, CAPEX, & Funding Status

Upstream Cash Flow Leveraged to Oil

Source: Factset, Vertical Research Partners

Unconventional plays drive paradigm shift, as oil drove cash flows & investment. Exploration success within politically stable US and Canada, in combination with high production rates and rising oil prices, translated into positive economics for unconventional plays. North American E&Ps shifted their focus toward unconventional plays, new companies emerged on the back of advantageous acreage holdings, and the Majors shifted attention toward booking domestic reserves. International companies & NOCs entered the North American market to fund joint ventures as means of participating in potential upside and gaining expertise they may export to international opportunities. As cash flows rose with oil prices and capital flooded into the sector, a number of smaller operators found funding to pursue new project to de-risk assets. Given access to capital markets and/or JV partners for funding to develop reserves, as well as prospects to sell to larger competitors, exploration from smaller players supported North American rig count growth. Cash flow & capital market constraints overhang the market’s current operating model. As WTI oil prices hover near project “break even” levels and European debt issues likely tighten credit markets, we see risk to the market relationships that drove recent upstream activity in North America. As illustrated above, companies with leverage to oil production are better able to internally fund their upstream CAPEX programs. As oil prices moderate, cash flows should become more constrained, likely curtailing upstream spending (CAPEX), correlated with cash flow. Similar to 2008/2009, widening funding gaps for the industry, without support from capital markets and industry funding sources, will drive CAPEX back to levels that funded by internal cash flows. Again, if present activity follows the script from 2008/2009, the impetus to spend through 2011 budgets may mask this change in tide during 4Q11, but poses a risk to a correction in activity as the market crossed over to the 2012 budgeting year.

De-Risking North American Rig Count Growth

Tight Credit Markets Dangerous of US Rig Count

Land Rig Breakdown – Leverage to Small Private Cos.

Funding gaps & smaller operators present a risk. Small private companies pose a risk to North American activity if financing becomes more difficult. Funding gaps for smaller public E&P’s likely reflect similar capital needs for smaller private operators. Given that these private operators comprise 36% of the US rig fleet, we see a significant risk from tighter capital markets in the wake of European debt issues. If the Majors and NOC’s decelerate their JV activity and acquisitions amid internal capital budgeting debates, we see a risk to activity from smaller players with limited financing options or the incentive from an end market to sell de-risked reserves, which they are not capitalized to develop.

Flattening North American Rig Count Estimates. To incorporate potential headwinds we are cutting our previous estimate for 18% US rig count growth for 2012 to 9%. Our forecast assumes operators continue to drill to maintain leases and replace reserves, but assumes that growth from well-funded operators is offset by a slowdown in activity from smaller players. Since commodity prices and capital markets have not deteriorated to the same degree as 2008/2009, we do not see a need to be more punitive, but acknowledge the potential downside risk if the economic outlook worsens.

Negative Implications for North American Pressure Pumping Pressure Pumping Linked to Horizontal Rig Count

Source: Baker Hughes, Vertical Research Partners Pressure Pumping Revenue/Rig

Source: Spears, Company Filings & Presentations, Vertical Research Partners Supply Demand Balance Approaching

Source: Company Filings & Presentations, Vertical Research Partners

Shift to Horizontal Rig Count Maturing

Source: Baker Hughes, Vertical Research Partners Pressure pumping earnings see risk of slower rig count growth. Growth in unconventional plays, horizontal drilling, and the pressure pumping market progressed in concert over the last few years. In our view, shift in the demand curve for pressure pumping horsepower is close to maturity, with the horizontal rig count accounting for 60% of the US land rig count and growth in service intensity per well digested. As the upward shift in pressure pumping horsepower demand absorbed the spare capacity, a resultant shortage of equipment led to pricing power, economic rents, and immense horsepower construction program. We see net capacity in the market doubling between 4Q10 and 4Q12 by our estimation. Given lower barriers to entry and the emergence of new pressure pumping IPO’s like C&J and others in the pipeline, our estimates of capacity additions have a greater upside than downside risk. From our conversations with oil services companies, at the beginning of 2011, North American demand for pressure pumping horsepower was around 12m horsepower and the supply of horsepower was closer to 10m horsepower. Our analysis of horsepower supply suggests the market had 10mm horsepower in 1Q11. The estimate of 12m horsepower of demand equates to a little over 7,000 horsepower per US rig in 1Q11. Based on announced building programs and assumption that all operators will look to maintain market share, the market will reach over 17m of horsepower supplied by the end of 2012. If horsepower demand per rig grows modestly through 2012, the supply of horsepower per rig will reach equilibrium in the middle of 2012, if the US rig count growth slows in line with our forecast. As supply outstrips demand into the second half of the year, we forecast competition from incoming pressure pumping capacity will erode pricing power gained since 2009.

De-risking estimates for North American Pressure Pumping Mkt. Share

Source: Spears, Vertical Research Partners Oil Services North American Exposure

Source: Spears, Company Data, Vertical Research Partners US Land vs. International Rig Counts

Source: Baker Hughes, Vertical Research Partners

Lowering our estimates for North America. The collapse of oil service shares due to fear of European debt issues make a bearish call on pressure pumping less heroic, but it allows us to calibrate our estimates and view. From conversations with industry players, we surmise 20% of the increase in pressure pumping revenue between 2009 and 2011 has come from pricing power. In our view, the market will surrender pricing premiums if supply balances demand. We see little support for pricing in long term contracts, which may support utilization for the larger players in the space, but are not structured around fixed pricing. Since we believe that North American rig count growth will accelerate once near term macroeconomic and capital market issues pass, we are not making the assumption that a an oversupply of horsepower yields a crash in North American pressure pumping or North American geographic margins. That said, we are tempering our margin expectations across 2012 to remove recent pricing gains. We see the impetus to spend the remainder of 2011 budgets as supportive of activity through the end of the year, but a deceleration of activity with the arrival of 2012 budgets. Following the lull, we see a recovery of the North American rig count into 2013, under the assumption that current economic and capital market headwinds fade. Please find the details of these assumption changes to our earnings estimates across our coverage on the next page. International outlook remains largely unchanged awaiting further data points. During the 2008/2009 downturn international rig counts fell by 13%, versus ~50% in North America. The magnitude of the negative impact from Europe remains unknown, but the shock to financial markets and degree of the slowdown does not appear as profound as 2008/2009. Capital markets have tightened, but we see this as a bigger problem for smaller, higher risk North American E&P companies than larger international IOCs and NOCs. The exception to the rule may be the emerging class of E&P companies with operations in the UK North Sea and other emerging global basins. That said, cash flow from Brent prices above $100/bbl, the impetus for OPEC to expand spare capacity to maintain order in the oil market, the awaking of upstream spending from NOCs, and strong international offshore rig tendering activity as supportive of the positive trajectory of international activity in our forecast.

Discounting lower growth and more risk in price targets Revised Price Valuation Ranges and Price Targets

Change in Price Targets

Lowering Price Targets for Oil Services Shares. In conjunction with lowering earnings estimates, we imply lower growth in our earnings multiple valuation framework. At the same time, we are transitioning the betas incorporated in our valuation analysis from the five year implied beta to the two year implied beta. The original impetus to use a longer horizon on our beta calculation looked to smooth out some of above average volatility in recent years and reduce the larger differences in implied risk between companies. Given the risk of near term earnings volatility due to economic issues overhanging the sector, we opted to migrate to a two year beta, which better reflects near term uncertainty, potential further downside risks to earnings estimates depending on macroeconomic outcomes, and the probability of greater volatility across oil service shares. As a result, discount rates used in calculating our target multiples have increased, our valuation multiples have come down, and our prices targets are lower. Our new valuation ranges and price targets are illustrated on this page and the methodology is further outlined on pg. 33. We remain bullish on international levered names at current share levels, but anticipate further volatility as unpredictable political and economic forces unfold. We continue to favor companies with leverage to international and offshore activity, with less exposure to funding issues with smaller operators, and better supported by higher Brent prices, positive indications from offshore tendering activity, and demand on OPEC spare capacity. Within this framework, SLB (Buy, PT$110) and BHI (Buy, PT$95) remain our top large cap. picks. DRQ (Buy, PT$90) and NBR (Buy, PT$29) remain our top small.mid cap. picks. We continue to favor RIG (Buy, PT$98), SDRL (Buy, PT$49), and DO (Buy, PT$100) among offshore drillers. North American levered shares should remain volatile. Given the greater exposure to North America, KEG, NBR, PTEN, and HAL experienced the biggest drop in share price since the end of July. We anticipate that these shares will remain volatile, especially those with pressure pumping exposure. Although we are lowering our North America estimates, especially as it related to pressure pumping, current depressed levels in these shares leave us looking for value rather than contemplating downgrades. In the event of progress on the European debt and macro front, we anticipate that these North American names will lead a resultant rally in the sector. Therefore, we see attractive trades brewing for HAL and NBR as the “macro fear” trade abates.

Coverage Synopsis

Note Shaded depicts Top Picks

Target Exp.Mkt. Cap. P/E P/E

Company Ticker Rating Price Price Return ($Bn) 2011 2012 2011 2012 Key ThemesBaker Hughes BHI Buy $49 $95 93% $21.5 11.4X 9.1X -1% -7% A laggard during the last cycle, BHI has polished its operating structure. We forecast a reversion to

peer growth and margins, especially in international markets. Near term headwinds from North America and pressure pumping exposure should be largely discounted into shares at these levels.

Schlumberger SLB Buy $63 $110 76% $84.5 16.7X 11.6X -1% 2% Leverage to international, offshore and NOC spending. A technology leader, whose higher value-added services should drive margins, will benefit from an expansion in exploration activity. SLB carries the least exposure to the North American market amongst diversifies oil service companies.Meanwhile, SLB's superior international footprint provides investors excellent leverage to ramp in international activity that will follow as the commodity market tiightens and internation upstream investments accelerates to keep pace with oil and natural gas demand.

Weatherford WFT Buy $13 $27 106% $9.8 16.1X 9.3X -7% -13% As a victim of operating leverage in the downturn leverage during the last downturn, WFT has felt the brunt of the latest dowturn in the market. These same forces will benefit WFT as international upstream spending activity emerges, especially from NOCs, who tend to spend at a lag to other players in the market.

FMC Technologies FTI Buy $40 $60 50% $9.6 23.6X 16.9X -1% 4% Favorable leverage to the offshore market with its subsea business and pressure pumping expansion through its flowline business, with a discounted earnings multiple offers an attractive entry point. We favor FTI's improving fundamentals, grwoth trajectory, and potential earnings visibility.

Cameron International CAM Buy $45 $65 43% $11.1 17.1X 12.0X -1% 1% Investors underestimate the company's leverage to the surface and subsea production equipment and international markets. Given the stock dramatically lagged its peers and screens well on valuation, we see a favorable risk reward amidst low expectations.

Halliburton HAL Buy $33 $60 80% $30.6 9.7X 8.5X 2% -12% Leverage to surging North American and pressure pumping economics may continue to weigh on shares. Given aggressive international growth and margin targets, we see upside once investor's attention turns to international and offshore opportunities.

National Oilwell Varco NOV Hold $59 $80 36% $24.9 13.1X 11.2X -1% -8% As the largest rig equipment provider, NOV rallied strongly with a renewal of land and offshore rig constructions. We forecast strong orders for rig and other oil services equipment, but believe that the shares may reflect those expectations as well. We are biased toward upside in our forecast, but await a better entry point. That said, with a resumption of the rally in oil services shares a trade into the $80's remains a reasonable expectation.

Dril-Quip DRQ Buy $54 $90 65% $2.2 23.5X 13.9X 0% 13% Strong exposure to offshore spending cycle, spare production capacity to capture rising order volumes, trading at a discount to recent market volatility and investor questions about the future of management, after the recent unfortunate passing of two founders. We believe that low expectations for DRQ will turn with the ramping in global offshore activity, especially in the Gulf of Mexico and Brazil. Given visibility for earnings growth and depressed valuation, we are buyers of DRQ shares.

Nabors Industries NBR Buy $13 $29 116% $3.9 8.7X 5.1X 5% 8% Missed earnings expectations and attention to upstream investments will yield attention to stronger international operations, US land drilling, and recovery of smaller business in the portfolio. Screening well on valuation and a laggard of the recent rally in oil services stocks, we like the risk/reward in NBR shares.

Patterson-UTI Energy PTEN Hold $17 $28 65% $2.6 7.4X 6.4X -2% -14% Strong leverage to the North American land drilling and pressure pumping market may contineu to overhang the shares. PTEN must continue to reinvest in new land rigs backed with contracts and maintain utilization for lower-spec. legacy rigs for positive share momentum to return.

Key Energy Services KEG Hold $10 $16 64% $1.5 9.7X 5.8X 2% -5% Well servicing, coiled tubing, and fluids management look set to drive positive economics from the rise of unconventional plays is North American and International markets. As estimates capture the positive outlook and risks are emerging for North American growth and increased equipment supply, we have become more guarded in our optimism.

Target Exp.Mkt. Cap. P/NAV P/NAV

Company Ticker Rating Price Price Return ($Bn) 2011 2012 2011 2012 Key ThemeTransocean RIG Buy $46 $98 111% $14.9 62% 59% -4% 20% Rig availability across deepwater floaters, midwater floaters, and jackups leaves room to capture

upside above our estimates. Ultimately, we see upside from the transition to a fuller payout model, which should re-rate shares on a yield basis from a discount to NAV to a premium to NAV.

Seadrill SDRL Buy $29 $49 69% $13.6 161% 150% -8% 2% Contract rollover and uncontracted deepwater newbuilds should benefit this shrewd and aggressive contractor. Rising cash flows should drive higher distributions, which should press the shares price higher relative to its yield-based valuation.

Diamond Offshore DO Buy $56 $100 79% $7.8 59% 58% 2% 21% Deepwater and midwater floater availability will allow DO to capture rising dayrates. In combination with cash flows from newbuilds, rising dividend distributions over the course of the cycle, may rerate the shares from a P/NAV discount to a premium on a yield basis. Current fleet age and quality questions will fade as rising demand with the upstream cycle brings rigs back to work.

Hercules Offshore HERO Buy $3 $10 261% $0.4 62% 55% -9% -65% Shares reflect poor sentiment for commodity jackups and few prospects for the shallow water Gulf of Mexico (GoM). A return of permitting and moderate recovery in shallow water jackup demand, given limited jackup supply in the GoM, will help utilization, dayrates, commodity rig values, and HERO shares.

Rowan RDC Buy $31 $52 68% $4.0 63% 57% 6% 15% We like RDC shares at a discount to NAV, with the prospects of open premium jackup capacity in a tightening high-spec. jackup market, and non-core business divestitures freed to reinvest into an expansion into the deepwater rig market.

Atwood Oceanics ATW Hold $36 $52 46% $2.3 78% 70% 0% 5% Solid operator, with an impetus to maintain leverage to the business through fleet expansion, and upside from rising rig values, but seeking a better entry point.

Noble NE Hold $30 $47 59% $7.5 83% 78% 0% 15% Good exposure to the contract drilling business and leverage to growth through an extensive newbuild program, which appears to have corrected recent issues with rigs under construction, but trading at NAV leaving less upside relative to other offshore drillers.

ENSCO ESV Hold $41 $63 53% $9.5 #REF! #REF! -13% -2% Quality jackup fleet will capture the rising tide in rates and the potential to unlock value in PDE assets through future contracting paint a positive picture that largely captured at the current P/NAV. A potential upside catalyst may come with the expansion of their dividend payout strategy.
