Scomi plans bigger capital expenditure in Venezuela| [email=By%20Kamarul%20Yunus]By Kamarul Yunus[/email] | Published: 2008/07/04 |
OIL and gas services firm Scomi Group Bhd plans to increase its capital expenditure (capex) in Venezuela by up to 10 per cent this year, buoyed by a booming oil and gas industry.
Chief financial officer Syahrunizam Samsuddin said as of June this year, the group has spent some US$13 million (RM43 million) on capex in the South American country.
"The increase in capex will be dependent on the nature of contracts that we receive this year. But the amount will not be significant, as what we have invested (in the country) so far," he told reporters after a presentation on "Doing Business in Venezuela" by Scomi at the Venezuelan Embassy in Kuala Lumpur yesterday.
 The group's operations in Venezuela contributed between five and eight per cent to its total revenue last year.
"This is significant. Venezuela's contribution is larger than our operations in other countries. Venezuela is one of the top eight countries that we are focusing in our offshore services business," he said.
Shahrunizam said the group expects to maintain its high level of growth in Venezuela this year.
"We want to maintain the growth momentum, but we also want to grow and build a solid infrastructure for growth in Venezuela.
"It is not so much that we want to capture all contracts offered in Venezuela, but deliver our products and services that we are capable of doing," he said.
Scomi's operations in Venezuela recorded a net profit of US$3 million (RM9.8 million) on US$23 million (RM75 million) revenue last year. Its first-quarter revenue ended March 31 2008 was at US$5 million (RM16.3 million), which is about 25 per cent of the total revenue registered for the whole of last year.
Scomi started its business in Venezuela in 1997 and has since set up two companies, namely Scomi Oiltools de Venezuela and Pimsa, to handle its business operations in that country.
Scomi Oiltools handles the drilling waste management and drilling fluids, while Pimsa, machine shop operations. Its offices are located in the Ciudad Ojeda, Anaco, Maturin and Barinas districts.
Started as a solids control services company, Scomi Oiltools senior vice-president Steve Backer said the company added drilling waste management to its business in Venezuela.
"We are actively promoting our drilling fluids business for which we are confident of seeing results this year. We have invested in inventory and anticipate returns in the 2008/2009 period," he said.
Scomi and Petroleos de Venezuela (PDVSA) are currently working on a unique technological demand for drilling to heavy oil system, which is on a trial run between three months and six months.
Backer said the technologies were generated from its research laboratories, in which the system will make it easier to drill, produce and develop heavy oil.
"If successful, it will be a major benefit to Scomi and PDVSA to develop resources in Venezuela," he added.
