Gottfried, Einverstanden (Agreed). I also bought a few share of TMAR today figuring that ESV,BJS, and TMAR gives one a reasonable cross section/exposure to oilfield services.

But for those of you who follow the drillers, I just came back from a meeting where we are trying to arrange for a rig for a SE Asian project, three wells. Per the drilling manager, the North Sea and Gulf of Mexico rig markets are still very tight, so that we probably could not offer a sufficient incentive that would encourage a company to move a rig to SE Asia for a three-well job....

So the rig market in the North Sea and Gulf of Mexico are still tight. On the downside we will probably pare back our capital expense budget a bit due to the lower oil prices this year- but not by any huge amount.....

Sincerely,

Doug F.
