Ensign Resource Service Group (ESI-T) is currently facing a dichotomy in expert opinion. While some analysts believe that the company is undervalued and has room for growth after a significant debt payment, others express concern about its outstanding debt levels. The company has recently seen a notable stock rally of 30%, yet experts still see more promising opportunities in the oil services sector. A key focus for the next quarter will be the complete payoff of its substantial $600 million debt. With half of this debt already eliminated, experts are optimistic that a debt-free status could pave the way for reinstating dividends, ultimately reflecting positively on its stock value and potential future prospects.

Noble, NE

BUY

Well run. International focused. Strong cash flow.

TOP PICK

Second largest contract driller in the country. Drilling is increasing over all. Have increased the number of rigs. Rates are increasing. Expenditures in the sector are increasing.

PAST TOP PICK

(A Top Pick Oct 12/05. Up 24%) very experienced management. A good stock. Add to it on dips.

HOLD

The oil service industries are the ones that are going to be making most of the money. They are increasing their rates by 15% and nobody can say no because if you want something done, you have to hire them. This one is one of the best out there. Lots of rigs and building lots more. Would like to see a little pullback.

DON'T BUY

Trading around his model price of $48. Wouldn't initiate a position here. Wait for a pullback.

BUY

With natural gas where it is, companies like this are going to have fabulous years. With energy at these kinds of prices, everybody is going to be drilling like crazy. This is partly reflected in the prices. Everybody should all at least one of these companies.

TOP PICK

Feels this is the oil services company, that really has momentum. Looking for a 20/30% increase in earnings in ’06. A little on the high end of the range and would rather buy it at $40.

BUY

Oil field service sector, drilling in particular. All the drilling companies are going to be really busy this winter. Don't think you can go wrong in the sector with the caveat that they've all gotten really expensive. Has both a seasonal and cyclical aspect to it.

BUY

A great name to hold. A service company and this is the area were you want to be, where you are coming off very low capital stock in terms of equipment. There is increased drilling activity.

TOP PICK

One of the largest drillers. Hasn't moved up as fast as the oil/gas companies. A good diversification in the energy sector. Their fleet is growing and are building new amazing drilling rigs. Drilling rates are going up and they are fully booked. Pays a dividend.

BUY

Sometimes you get these wild swings in these cycles, especially with the drillers, but this time they never pulled off that much. No reason not to buy into the service industries, he just doesn't like the cyclicality of it. Right now they are in a pinch point going into the winter, where they have run out of rigs and crews. Expect these stocks will keep going.

BUY

All the well drillers and services have done incredibly well. This one is a little more reasonably valued at 5.5/6 X cash flow. No debt. Has managed to expand its margins.

BUY

A good way to invest in the energy sector. You're not worrying about a production miss in a given quarter that might take the stock down. Day rates are going up. Trading a little bit cheaper than some of its peers at 5.6 X multiple of cash flow. Debt free.

BUY

Has hit a new all time high and is going higher. Put your stop/loss at $33.

BUY

Although she doesn't own any at present, the oil services is a good sector. Just reported good earnings, particularily strong on the US side.
