Deutsche Bank initiates coverage on Bill Barrett (NYSE: BBG) with a Hold. PT $30.00.

Deutsche analyst said, "Like many of its gassy peers, Bill Barrett is in the midst of a transition towards oil, centered around the Uinta Basin oil play. Strong returns and ramping activity (Uinta will make up 50% of total rig count by 2H12) will shift the production mix from under 10% oil to 20% oil by 2014 and support steady cash flow growth, even in a flat commodity environment. However, limits to further acceleration in the Uinta (permitting, takeaway) and a widening funding gap will keep gas price in the forefront for now."
