Barclays maintains an 'Equalweight' on Nabors (NYSE: NBR) price target of $19.00 (from $20.00).

Analyst, James C. West, said, "We lowered our estimates for Nabors yesterday in our Global Oil Patch Weekly to reflect the unfolding pressure on land rig dayrates and utilization faced by the land drillers, continued deterioration in the stimulation market, and the increased potential that the rig count will trend down modestly in 2H12."

West further cuts estimates on NBR: Q2 EPS from $0.41 to $0.38, FY12 from $2.10 to $2.00 and FY13 from $2.40 to $2.15.
