Day says <<<<Day said, "Fundamental drilling data, such as bidding activity and plans and permits, all currently point to rather uneventful third and fourth quarters in the U.S. Gulf. We are, however, pleased with our recent acquisitions, which will add to returns that already lead the sector.">>>>

Makes me think one might get a better entry point for HOFF and some of the other service companies.

K-man, RE: HOFF/PEMEX

TDW's CC* was somewhat positive about PEMEX-TDW relationship:

1. PEMEX meeting cash obligations last several months.
2. TDW has gone back to work for PEMEX
3. TDW made arrangements, adding to probability of full payment.

<<This is a very competitive sector and business still sucks.>>

Today certainly was another ugly day for HOFF. It is a continuation of the past 7 weeks when the price has declined 35%.

Its like someone knows that PEMEX negotiations are stalled??

The Admiral's conference call on August 7 will likely confirm that GoM and West African offshore contractors have not seen improving margins??
