UBS maintains a 'Buy' on Oasis Petroleum (NYSE: OAS) price target raised from $33 to $35.

UBS analyst says, "Clean 3Q EPS/CFPS of $0.23/$0.61 was in line with consensus of $0.23/$0.59 and our estimate. 3Q production of 11.6 MBoed rose 47% QoQ but was in the lower half of the 11-12.5 MBoed guidance range...OAS recently lowered its FY‘11 production to 11 MBoed and reaffirmed its ‘11 capex of $627 MM (3Q capex of $206 MM is in line). We forecast ‘11-’12 prod’n of 11 MBoed & 23 MBoed and are modestly revising 2012 EPS/CFPS to $1.75/$4.60 from $1.80/$4.60 on higher DD&A expense. We also revised our 2P NAV to $39/sh to include a conservative Three Forks NAV of ~$4/sh, reflecting increased Three Forks drilling activities with 6-7 operated wells targeted this year."
