Interest in the Oil and Gas Sector has skyrocketed in the wake of Muammar Gaddafi's demise. With his death came an easing of tensions and fighting in the region, sparking renewed interest in exploring the country's vast oil resources. Approximately 75 percent of the country's potential oil territory is still unexplored. Gaddafi kept tight control over the region and political unrest previously deterred many oil companies from investing in the region. All of that is expected to change and investors would be wise to track which companies are making plays in the region.
Shallow water drilling contractor, Hercules Offshore Inc, posted a wider-than-expected quarterly loss on lower international revenue, hurt by lower market rates for new contracts. However, the company said average dayrates in its domestic offshore segment rose by nearly $10,000 per day over the past year with a further upside expected.
