EXXI: Ultra-Deep Update

DAVID DECKELBAUM, UBS Securities (12/02/2010)
"The highly anticipated log results from Blackbeard East indicated that the well encountered 178 net feet of pay in three different zones. Further, operator MMR elected to deepen the well to 31,500 feet from 29,950 TD prior. . .Davy Jones #2 well is drilling at 24,300 feet toward TD of 29,950. As expected, MMR is targeting potential Wilcox and Tuscaloosa deeper sections, which could prove quite prolific. As Davy Jones #1 is still set to produce next October, we expect further updates by Q111 to add upside to the Davy Jones prospect.

EXXI shares still leaving upside for ultra-deep: Pro-forma the recent XOM transaction, we see EXXI shares more favorably positioned from a risk perspective, as we estimate shares are trading modestly above our 1P NAV of $24/share, leaving ample room for ultra-deep contributions."
