  • Citi’s Scott Gruber has upgraded the rating on Cameron International from Neutral to Buy, while raising the price target from $55 to $76.
  • Following the 80 percent equity deal, the company’s shares are linked to Schlumberger Limited SLB. Therefore, the rating on Cameron has been upgraded in sync with the upgrade on Schlumberger.

Gruber believes that there is a 95 percent probability of the acquisition of Cameron International by Schlumberger being completed successfully.
