Keppel Corporation set to exceed S$6bn order wins in 2013

Given robust potential orders.

"We believe Keppel’s order win momentum will continue to gather steam in the next few months, underpinned by robust potential orders in the pipeline," said DBS.

"Year to date order wins stood at S$5.3bn, and looks set to exceed our full year expectation of S$6bn," it added.

DBS gave its optimistic outlook given four potential sources of order wins. This includes PEMEX’s six jack up orders totaling US$1.3bn; Golar’s FLNG projects following recent conclusion of FEED study; Transocean’s orders of up to 10 jack up rigs worth US$2bn to be awarded as early as end Oct; and a potential first drillship contract by end of 2013.

Keppel Corporatin remained DBS's preferred pick in the large cap O&M space. "Its solid execution track record, global yard network, and world-class proprietary designs are unrivalled."

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
