Investment summary

Greka Drilling (GDL) recently announced 2011 earnings and, despite lagging our expectations, point to solidly profitable operations. More significantly perhaps, has been GDL's success in applying its pioneering LiFaBriC drilling methodology in unlocking the CBM potential of China's geologically challenging coal basins. As a result GDL appears poised to obtain third-party (non GDG) contracts. We believe there remains scope for a surge in earnings in 2012, reflecting the expansion of the rig fleet and the leveraging of the cost base.

Industry outlook

The Chinese government is promoting the use of natural gas as a low carbon fuel. It is also attempting to reduce dependence on imported energy. The key objective is to raise the weighting of natural gas in the energy mix from 4% presently to 10% by 2020. CBM is expected to account for about 10% of natural gas production. In early August Shell announced a JV with Henan CBM to develop unconventional gas.
