Moody’s expects O&G firms to raise capex in 2021


KUALA LUMPUR: Oil and gas (O&G) companies are expected to increase their capital expenditure (capex) programme in 2021, if crude oil prices stay between US$60 and US$70 per barrel (US$1= RM4.13), according to Moody's Investors Service.

Moody’s corporate finance group analyst Sim Hui Ting said that with more O&G companies revising their capex programmes upwards due to impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic, it would lead to higher profitability for oil field services companies.
