-- 米国内務省は水曜日、南カリフォルニア沖の老朽化した石油プラットフォームにおける、水圧破砕を含む坑井刺激処理の再開案に関する最終環境影響評価報告書を公表した。 海洋エネルギー管理局(BOEM)が実施したこの評価は、サンタバーバラ海峡のベンチュラ郡沖合の連邦水域に位置するプラットフォーム・ギルダの既存坑井最大16坑に対する処理が環境に及ぼす潜在的な影響を対象としている。 この作業は、1981年から操業している同プラットフォームの操業会社による開発・生産計画の改訂の一環である。 BOEMは、最終環境影響評価報告書の公表は、提案された活動を承認するものではないと述べた。同局は、環境およびその他の関連事項に関する評価を完了した後、別途決定記録を発行する予定である。 外大陸棚リース番号P0216の下で操業しているプラットフォーム・ギルダは、カリフォルニア州ベンチュラの南西約8.8マイル(14キロメートル)、水深約205フィートの海域に位置している。 1981年に設置されたこのプラットフォームは、それ以来途切れることなく稼働し続けている。

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Buy Opinion On Shares Of The Hartford Insurance Group, Inc.
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We trim our 12-month target price by $8 to $155, valuing HIG shares at 11.3x our 2026 operating EPS estimate of $13.75 (cut by $0.45) and at 10.6x our 2027 EPS estimate of $14.65 (cut by $0.30), vs. the shares' one-year average forward multiple of 10.3x and peer average of 13x. Q1 EPS of $3.09 vs. $2.20 a year ago missed our $3.60 estimate and $3.39 consensus view. Operating revenue growth of 6.2% was in line with our 6%-10% forecast, amid 5.3% earned premium growth, 13% higher net investment income, and 7.9% fee revenue growth. Q1 written premium growth of 4% and full-year 2025 growth of 7% bode well for 2026 revenue trends as premiums are earned. Underwriting results improved significantly, with Personal Lines combined ratio improving to 87.7% from 106.1% and underlying combined ratio to 85.0% from 89.7%. Business Insurance combined ratio was stable at 94.8%. Weighing the Q1 EPS miss with HIG's decent top-line growth and discounted valuation to peers, we view the shares as undervalued.
Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Baker Hughes
CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We raise our 12-month target price by $14 to $82, reflecting a combination of our sum-of-the-parts (SOTP) and DCF models. For our SOTP model, we presume the oilfield services business (about 50% of BKR's franchise) to be valued at about 10x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with major peers) and its industrial energy technology business (the other 50%) valued at 14x projected 2027 EBITDA (in line with the peer median). This blended approach, yielding a 12x multiple, implies a value of $73 per share. Meanwhile, our DCF model, using medium-term free cash flow growth of 5% per year, terminal growth of 2.5%, discounted at a WACC of 6.3%, yields intrinsic value of $91 per share. We cut our 2026 EPS estimate by $0.47 to $2.48, but we raise 2027's by $0.07 to $3.24. We acknowledge that the oilfield services business is likely to struggle in 2026 owing to the U.S.-Iran conflict, but the IET business appears quite robust and likely to be a source of both accelerating revenue growth and margins.
