Collins Stewart launch coverage of the Americas integrated oils with a neutral sector outlook.

Collins initiates coverage on Hess Corporation (NYSE: HES) & Marathon Oil (NYSE: MRO) with a Buy.

Collins analyst says, "On MRO, we believe that at current share prices, it is offering investors the best value within the sector, as its current share price is >25% below our DCF-based core valuation...On HES, we expect exploration and appraisal results to serve as key stock catalysts through the end of the year."

Collins initiates coverage on Chevron Corp. (NYSE: CVX), ConocoPhillips (NYSE: COP), Exxon Mobil (NYSE: XOM), Occidental (NYSE: OXY) & Petroleo (NYSE: PBR) with a Hold.

Collins initiates coverage on Murphy Oil (NYSE: MUR) with a Sell.

"We initiate on MUR with a Sell recommendation, stemming primarily from our concern as to the underlying value and long-term sustainability of the upstream portfolio."
