RBC Capital:

OIL SERVICE STRATEGIST: SEPTEMBER 6, 2002
Find disclosures section at the end of the note.

Daily Rap
* The OSX closed down 0.2% to 76.03 faring better than the broader market
indices.
* Providing support for the group were natural gas and crude oil prices up
2.5% and 4.7%, respectively.
* Crude oil rallied on the API and DOE inventory reports and continued
prospects for an attack on Iraq.
* Natural gas was pulled higher by crude and an EIA storage report in line
with expectations.

Commentary
* Near term, we still expect the group to trade between 70-95 pending a
macroeconomic catalyst.
* Consensus EPS and U.S. rig count projections for 3Q02 have been trending
lower toward our numbers, which have been largely in place since the end of
February 2002.
* The 4Q02 earnings wildcard is a function of North American drilling
activity, for which there is little visibility as of yet.
* In our view, the Q4 picture should become more clear by the end of
September as we move through the "shoulder period" for natural gas.
