Coflexip Records Best Results Ever

Offshore oil equipment and services provider Coflexip set an all-time high on Thursday following a price target upgrade by a major broker and on bright prospects for North Sea contracts. Coflexip was quoted up 6.67 percent at 152 euros, the broad market's best performer. Earlier, it had surged to a record 156 euros after Morgan Stanley Dean Witter lifted its price target to 200 euros from 165 euros and maintained a "strong buy" recommendation.
