                RIL to pay US $1.3bn for stake in Pioneer's Shale gas

                Reliance Industries (RIL) has agreed to pay US $1.3bn for a stake in the shale gas assets of
                Texas-based Pioneer Natural Resources Co., as RIL expands its upstream business in North
                America. RIL will pay US $1.15bn to Pioneer and buy out a stake of Pioneer's current JV
                partner, Newpek LLC, for US $210mn in a deal expected to close within five business days.
                This transaction will be routed through RIL’s subsidiary, Reliance Eagleford Upstream LP,
                which will pay US $263mn upfront for a 45% stake in Pioneer's Eagle Ford shale acreage
                in South Texas, representing 118,000 acres of the 263,000-acre field, which according to
                RIL’s management holds about 10TCF (trillion cubic feet) of gas equivalent. RIL's share of
                the Pioneer shale acreage adds net 4.5TCF of gas to the company's reserves base. It is the
                second such deal this year for RIL as it chases resources and expertise in promising
                unconventional gas reserves in North America. In April, RIL had agreed to pay US $1.7bn
                for a 40% stake in Atlas Energy's Marcellus shale acreage in West Virginia, Pennsylvania
                and New York States, wherein 343,000 acres hold an estimated 13TCF of gas.

                We believe the deal with Pioneer is at a reasonable price, especially given the absence of
                exploration risk and the potential for RIL to gain shale gas expertise it could apply
                elsewhere, including India. As part of the Pioneer deal, RIL will get hands-on experience
                operating up to four rigs and will fund 75% of Pioneer's drilling costs up to US $879mn.
                RIL will also pay an additional amount of US $46mn for a 49.9% stake in a separate
                midstream processing JV with Pioneer. Pioneer is also targeting additional acreage in six
                South Texas counties and RIL will have the option to buy a 45% share of Pioneer's new
                acreage. It is said that the cash influx will enable the JV to ramp up production from Eagle
                Ford to as much as 41,000boepd by 2013, from a 2010 average of 2,000bpd. We
                maintain a Buy on RIL with a target price of Rs1,260.

    Market Outlook |India Research RIL to pay US $1.3bn for stake in Pioneer's Shale gas Reliance Industries (RIL) has agreed to pay US $1.3bn for a stake in the shale gas assets of Texas-based Pioneer Natural Resources Co., as RIL expands its upstream business in North America. RIL will pay US $1.15bn to Pioneer and buy out a stake of Pioneer's current JV partner, Newpek LLC, for US $210mn in a deal expected to close within five business days. This transaction will be routed through RIL’s subsidiary, Reliance Eagleford Upstream LP, which will pay US $263mn upfront for a 45% stake in Pioneer's Eagle Ford shale acreage in South Texas, representing 118,000 acres of the 263,000-acre field, which according to RIL’s management holds about 10TCF (trillion cubic feet) of gas equivalent. RIL's share of the Pioneer shale acreage adds net 4.5TCF of gas to the company's reserves base. It is the second such deal this year for RIL as it chases resources and expertise in promising unconventional gas reserves in North America. In April, RIL had agreed to pay US $1.7bn for a 40% stake in Atlas Energy's Marcellus shale acreage in West Virginia, Pennsylvania and New York States, wherein 343,000 acres hold an estimated 13TCF of gas. We believe the deal with Pioneer is at a reasonable price, especially given the absence of exploration risk and the potential for RIL to gain shale gas expertise it could apply elsewhere, including India. As part of the Pioneer deal, RIL will get hands-on experience operating up to four rigs and will fund 75% of Pioneer's drilling costs up to US $879mn. RIL will also pay an additional amount of US $46mn for a 49.9% stake in a separate midstream processing JV with Pioneer. Pioneer is also targeting additional acreage in six South Texas counties and RIL will have the option to buy a 45% share of Pioneer's new acreage. It is said that the cash influx will enable the JV to ramp up production from Eagle Ford to as much as 41,000boepd by 2013, from a 2010 average of 2,000bpd. We maintain a Buy on RIL with a target price of Rs1,260. McNally Bharat wins order from NTPC McNally Bharat Engineering has bagged an order worth Rs41.4cr from NTPC for the Ash Water Recirculation and Treatment package. The company’s current order book position stands at Rs4,350cr, which is 2x FY2010E consolidated revenue. At the current price, the stock is trading at 10x and 8x its estimated earnings of FY2011E and FY2012E. We maintain our Buy rating on the stock with a target price of Rs486. June 25, 2010 2
