OIL SERVICE STRATEGIST: MAY 1, 2002

Commentary
* The OSX apparently has stalled out temporarily near the 107 level.
* In our view, the second phase of fundamental improvement in the oil
service sector has arrived.
* Phase one was Gulf of Mexico drilling and phase two is surfacing in the
U.S. land drilling business.
* In addition, it is becoming clear to the staunchest of natural gas bears
that U.S. production is declining, not increasing, on a sequential quarter
basis.
* The most recent evidence comes to us courtesy of BP, which reported a
1.7% sequential decline in U.S. natural gas production.
* This supply drop in conjunction with rising industrial demand suggests to
us that natural gas prices should remain north of $3.00 per Mcf and E+P
spending is about to hit a positive inflection point.
* The primary risk factor is a double-dip recession in 2002 and/or oil
driven fuel switching.
* As such, we believe it is only a matter of time before investors put
incremental capital to work in the group.
* We maintain the view that the OSX will reach 115-120 in the near term.
