- Wednesday, October 10, 2012, 3:30 PM Rowan (RDC -1.6%) and Diamond Offshore (DO -1.7%) are downgraded to Market Perform at FBR Capital, which says it is growing more selective among offshore drillers as the likelihood of sticker shock from deepwater contract news is lower, and offshore drillers could ultimately attract investors looking to increase exposure to U.S. land services once they gain more clarity. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 3, 2012, 3:21 PM Offshore drilling is in a "very, very strong” position thanks to global rig demand and the booming oil and gas E&P business, Diamond Offshore (DO -1.9%) chairman James Tisch tells CNBC. Dayrates for sixth-generation rigs have risen from $400K/day a few years ago to $550K-$600K now, he says; natural gas is “transformative for our economy." 6 Comments [Energy, On the Move]
- Tuesday, October 2, 2012, 12:21 PM Midwater rigs are in a sweet spot, Credit Suisse says, as increasing demand coupled with tight supply should push dayrates higher into 2014. The firm highlights Transocean (RIG), Diamond Offshore (DO) and Ensco (ESV) as enjoying the most midwater exposure, with 12, nine and five rigs respectively rolling off contract through 2014. Comment! [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Wednesday, August 29, 2012, 3:07 PM Credit Suisse initiates coverage of energy equipment and services providers with an Overweight rating, seeing projects in Brazil, Africa and the Gulf of Mexico driving a cycle of multiyear growth. The firm likes the fleet mix at top picks Rowan (RDC) and Noble (NE), believing the jackup market is under appreciated, and both companies are building out their UDW fleets. 2 Comments [Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, August 21, 2012, 3:40 PM Barclays says recent rig orders and bullish outlooks reinforce its view of a structural shift towards deepwater drilling which will drive demand for oil service equipment suitable for these environments. The firm says the tightness in deepwater is a clear positive for DO, RIG, ESV, SDRL and NBL, which enjoy continued dayrate improvements for almost all rig classes. 3 Comments [Energy]
- Wednesday, August 15, 2012, 8:59 AM Diamond Offshore (DO) places an order for construction of a semi-submersible rig capable of operations in depths up to 6,000 feet, a project with an estimated cost of $370M. The rig will be built at “significantly lower cost” and in about half the typical time for constructing such rigs, the drilling company says. Comment! [Energy]
- Monday, July 30, 2012, 4:31 PM Loews (L -5.2%) tumbled today after the insurance company posted a decline in quarterly profit, hurt by impairment charges at 50%-owned Diamond Offshore (DO +0.7%), but Barron's views the dip in shares as a buying opportunity. The charges shouldn't come as a surprise, as oil companies have endured the shaky global growth and lower pricing in the past quarter. 2 Comments [Financials, Energy, Quick Ideas]
- Thursday, July 19, 2012, 11:47 AM Diamond Offshore (DO +3.3%) shares rally after the company's better-than-expected quarterly profit, credited to a reduction in unanticipated rig downtime and cost control, and says the deepwater drilling market remains strong. DO strikes a deal for a deepwater unit under construction at a rate of $490K/day. Shares are upgraded to Add from Neutral at Capital One. (also) Comment! [Energy, On the Move]
- Thursday, July 19, 2012, 10:03 AM Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO) declares $0.75 special cash dividend and a quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 (in line with previous; forward yield 0.75%). For shareholders of record Aug. 1. Payable Sept. 4. Ex-div date July 30. (PR) Comment! [Dividends]
- Thursday, July 19, 2012, 6:39 AM Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO): Q2 EPS of $1.09 beats by $0.18. Revenue of $738.1M (-17% Y/Y) beats by $3M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Energy]

- Thursday, June 28, 2012, 2:57 PM Moody's upgrades Diamond Offshore's (DO) corporate credit rating to A3 from Baa1, citing the contract driller's lower debt levels relative to its industry peers and its strong market position with a large offshore drilling fleet. The ratings firm says DO will have a competitive ultradeepwater and deepwater drilling rig fleet upon completion of its new drill ships. 3 Comments [Energy]
