Keppel pops the champagne on $4.9bn order wins

Analyst predicts $5.9b sealed deals this year.

According to Phillip Securities Research, Keppel announced that it has secured new repeat orders from Clearwater Capital Partners (Clearwater) for 2 jack-ups worth US$440mn (~S$550mn). Clearwater’s order lifted YTD order wins to S$4.9bn, against Phillip Securities' full-year order forecast of S$5.9bn for FY13E.

"We believe order momentum remains strong as oil companies like Pemex continue to expand its rig fleet, which in turn could benefit Keppel Corp," says Phillip Securities Research.

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
