Very good company. Interesting space to be in. The turnaround in share price of the drillers has probably preceded the fundamentals. Fundamentals over the next several years look incredibly strong. Prefers drillers that have a yield such as Precision Drilling (PD.UN-T). Good entry point.
A wonderful company. Has come off a bit lately with the oil patch. Debt free, terrific growth and terrific value for shareholders. A good way to participate in the oil patch.
Came off along with other drillers but had a good rebound. Likes that they make money in bad times. Very conservative balance sheet. High capacity utilization. Tend to add new rigs only when they have them booked. Have work in the Montney region in B.C. and the Bakken in Saskatchewan. $14 would be a reasonable price.
Very high efficiency levels and very low debt. Tremendously loyal to its employees and shareholders. Sustainable but modest dividend. Have been known for delivering very good service for the very large companies in the deeper plays. Likes this one long-term.
