Dahlman Rose initiates coverage on Pacific Drilling S.A. (NYSE: PACD) with a Buy rating and Price target of $12.50.
"The ultra-deepwater market has tightened considerably and has been effectively running at 100% utilization since the middle of 2011," said analyst James Crandell.
"Rig availability is very scarce in 2013, with just six uncontracted newbuilds and most active rigs likely to re-sign with their current operator. The tightening market has ratcheted up UDW dayrates, which have reached the high $500s in the GOM for a minimum three-year term and the mid-$600s in West Africa for similar term length," he said.
