Oil equipment and services sector hit by Technip read-across

Wed, 18th Dec 2013 14:45

The oil equipment and services sector was battered by read-across from a profit warning at French company Technip.A Tuesday evening update from the group fed market angst about a slowdown in capital investment by the oil majors, mentioning that operating margins in its sub-sea unit will be "exceptionally low" in the first three months of 2014.However, UBS kept its buy recommendation on Technip as the long-term picture still looked healthy. Goldman Sachs was less certain: "Management remains confident, however, in the pipeline of offshore work to be awarded, and a rebound in margins in 2015. We remain more skeptical of this given our view of slowing activity through 2014, combined with a rising supply of vessels."Wood Group was down 4.7%, Hunting 2.6% and Petrofac 1.4%.ARM and Pace Micro were two technology stocks to post strong rises on Wednesday, lifting the sector to the top of the leaderboard despite falls from several leading tech-industry players in the US, including Apple. ARM strengthened 3.6% to 1,029p amid news of strong sales of tablet computers from retailers such as Dixons and rumours of Google using ARM chips in its servers.
