Friend, my apology that I didn' t state clearly. What I' ve quoted below is from David Kuo... He is the one who said it is the logical solution to merge Dev & Rig Co. Ops Co is the renewables, would KC let off?

Maybe that' s the end result of the 3-party negotiations. SMM says I don' t want your rigs and value KOM on their Op co assets only. So KC will finish the projects on their own. And then let their Op co merge with SMM. Perhaps they can get a better valution of their Op co that way. To SMM then pay less for the merger. Haha. Let' s continue the theme of merging rumours ... However I think that will take a while. KC has to finish the rig work and make op co profitable while SMM must also become profitable first. |

Rig and Dev co are for them to finish off their rig projects on hand. After that these 2 will probably " disappear" , sold or write-off. If SMM is backing away from rigs, why would it want to pick up all these " assets" or " liability" ? This is the one that is dragging down KOM. Why would SMM want to take them on board to relieve KC, and then let KC compete with them using Op co on FPSO and the like? The latter SMM is heavily involved (at least 8 or 9 current projects are in this field).

Ermm....I think you got it wrong.... It will merge SM with Rig and Dev Co not Ops Co... A logical solution would be a merger of Keppel Corp&rsquo s Rig Co and Dev Co with Sembcorp Marine. It would eliminate the need to compete for contracts purely on price. So, the merger of Rig Co and Dev Co with Sembcorp Marine could help minimise any headcount reduction in the yards overall. A larger, consolidated rig-builder could reap great economies of scale and maintain and warrant a large manpower base.

Read that article in the morning in CNA by David Kuo. He is a little confused, to say the least.   If a merger is to happen, Sembmarine is ONLY going to absorb the Op Co.(The yards, talents, IPs and expertises of Keppel OM or all the good stuffs).
The Rig Co and Dev Co are legacy assets (the nicest term one can come out with to say stuffs that nobody wants) that lock up capital. Keppel Corp will have to solve that probvlem on its own. |

All shipyards, including the Chinese and Korean shipyards have to write off huge amounts for rigs cancelled or stucked in their books. The only difference is the degree of damage. Keppel OM has to write off close to $1billion because they have too many rigs stucked. SMM is suffering a much lesser damage because they managed to offload much in 2017/ 18 and has not taken on any new rig order since. Kudo to CEO Wong for his foresight. In comparison, Keppel has got $3+billion of rigs stucked in their balance sheet while SMM only has about $1.1 billion stucked.   |

But they did confirm they will no longer do rigs after they finish what' s on hands. Rig co and Dev co will be sold or write-off after that I guess the former more likely. |

Contrary to popular misinformation, Keppel OM is not getting out of the offshore oil biz. They have clarified during the Q& A that they are only getting out of the rig biz (Jack up rig and maybe Semi-submersible rig). Still going to do FPSO, FPU etc. actively and with increased focus on oil and gas platform integration and development. It is as good as not saying anything because no one is going to order any new rig at least for the next 3-4 years with the gross over supply situation in the rig market. |

Market rumours are just that, market rumours. You think you are the first one to know if there is anything concrete? (You here is used as a generic not referring to you per se. :) )

This make sense. Meanwhile, MORE buy Q will be better, like 0.128 or 0.118 to show buying interest in the shares. But make sure you select BUY.

Bro NT1825 advised in his post of 7 Dec 2020 the following. Very good advice!
"How to overcome shorties short Dont leave your shares in Trading Houses, for BBs to borrow. How? Use Up all you shares and place a Sell at much higher price Eg Bid/ Ask = 2.55/ 2.56 Place Sell Order : 2000 shares at 2.85 It is not intended to Sell but to prevent BBs from borrowing your shares to stage a short It is like lending money to BB but you don' t get any interest. In return you get a de-valued stocks 2) When you hear of ridiculous sad stories - just ignore. Do not forward such scare tactics" |

What you said applies only if your shares are kept in CDP. Those that you buy with very low commissions and are kept by the trading houses are then at their mercy because they are not under your name but the trading house' s. They just have a record of how many shares you have. You just have a subaccount with them. Although it' s not recommended that they loan the shares out like that, no one heeds the advice apparently.

Bro DLP123
Yes, according to the checks by bro NT1825. If the shares are not registered in our names in CDP, the brokerage houses can lend them out for more profits. So do place sell orders at high high prices.

You meant trading house can use our shares even if we did not list them on SBL.
