ENERGY EQUIPMENT: YOUR NEXT BEST ENERGY TRANSITION PLAY?

Would you have ever thought that energy equipment and services companies (we're taking about firms such as Baker Hughes BKR.O, Subsea 7 SUBC.OL or Technip Energies TE.PA) could be a good way for investors to play the energy transition?

Probably not, but there's some ownership data unearthed by Bernstein that surprisingly appears to suggest so.

After analysing data on over 32,000 funds, Bernstein has detected a 37% increase in ESG ownership for energy services.

That compares to the 2% rise for global industries and the 1% decline seen across the global oil & gas sector.

So, what does that mean?

"We think such a positive development is evidence that the Energy Equipment & Services industry is starting to become a credible energy transition enabler and play," say a team of analysts led by Virgile Haddad.

Other sector companies also include Halliburton HAL.N, SLB SLB.N, Tenaris TENR.MI, Vallourec VLLP.PA and Gaztransport et Technigaz GTT.PA.
