Barclays maintains an 'Equalweight' on Basic Energy Services (NYSE: BAS) price target lowered from $30 to $26.

Analyst, James C. West, said, "We continue to believe Basic Energy Services will benefit from the continued shift toward drilling and workover activity in oil and liquids-rich plays, particularly the Permian Basin. Although lower natural gas prices and incremental pressure pumping capacity in key markets is likely to result in pricing concessions and lower margins, we continue to expect this to be mostly offset by relative strength for the company's other services lines."

West lowers FY2012 from $2.65 to $2.40 and FY13 from $3.00 to $2.60.
