Keppel's contract wins beat Sembcorp Marine's by $190m

Keppel recently scored $1.87b deals.

According to UOB Kay Hian, ytd, Keppel has won S$1.87b of new contracts, marginally surpassing SMM’s contract wins of S$1.68b. SMM’s contract wins include a S$900m letter of intent (LOI) for an EPC contract to build an offshore platform integrated topside. 

Excluding the EPC contract, SMM’s contract wins would come up to S$780m. UOB Kay Hian maintains its 2013 contract win projections of S$5b each for Keppel (2012: S$9.9b) and SMM (S$11.0b).

"Traditionally, quarterly contract wins are uneven, with the first few months of a year typically being a good season for shipyard contract wins. We forecast annual contract wins of S$6b in each of 2014 and 2015 for Keppel and S$5b for SMM,"

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.
