Jefferies initiates coverage on Petrochina (NYSE: PTR) with a Buy and RMB15.50 target.

The firm states, "We believe 2011 will be PetroChina's year with energy reform a key priority of the 12th 5 Year Plan. The market is embedding negative sentiment from years of price controls. A re-rating is warranted as the company controls the crown jewels of China's upstream assets and as government intervention in upstream energy markets fades away."
