BlueNord (Buy, TP: NOK615.00) - Look past the near-term noise
BlueNord reported Q1 EBITDA of USD88m, in line with our USD86m estimate and Bloomberg consensus of USD85m. Technical issues means the ramp-up to the Tyra plateau is now prolonged to mid-Q4, triggering the company to cut its 2024 production guidance from >40kboed to c35kboed. Being conservative, we have cut our 2024 production estimate by 18%, to ~32kboed. However, we emphasise that this has no effect on our estimates beyond 2024, and that in our view this is purely a timing issue. We reiterate o...

Weekly news, topics & discussion
This week, we published a note on Aker BP highlighting our growing concerns of sharp cuts to consensus FCF, with capex assumptions beyond 2026 looking far too low to us – we are ~40% below consensus on 2027–2030e FCF. As well as BW Energy’s Q1 trading update revealing net production just below our estimate, it announced a sale & leaseback agreement, which we see as marginally accretive to our NAV. In other news, we believe the Tyra ramp-up will be in focus in BlueNord’s Q1 results, due next week

Aker BP (Buy, TP: NOK290.00) - Capex concerns looming
While investor concerns appear tilted towards a near-term production decline, we are increasingly concerned that consensus FCF will face meaningful negative revisions, as capex assumptions beyond 2026 look far too low. For 2027–2030, our FCF estimates are ~40% below consensus. We reiterate our BUY, but have cut our target price to NOK290 (325) on a lower fair P/NAV.

BW Energy reported net production of 27.2kboed for Q1, slightly below our ~29kboed estimate, with production from Dussafu broadly in line with our forecast, while production from Golfinho was slightly below. With its Q1 trading update, it also announced a sale/leaseback agreement for the MaBoMo production facility, boosting liquidity by USD110m at what we consider attractive financing terms (SOFR+3.75%). We see the transaction as marginally positive to our NAV. We reiterate our BUY and have incr...
