Robert, HMAR,TMAR, and TDW all look like good value plays here.... Remember- Offshore platforms still need constant weekly and sometimes even daily servicing by marine vessels even when no drilling rigs are around.... 365 days/year....(except when hurricanes or typhoons blow through!).... That's also why as an industry person, I like the equipment manufacturers, and well servicing companies too..... But I do own a couple of drillers, too RDC and ESV, mainly shallow water drillers - and RDC has the LeTorneau Rig Yard in Vicksburg, Mississippi, as a kicker, so they are a manufacturer too... Say have I mentioned here why the first thing that a pumper looks for when he/she inspects the wells in an onshore field every morning is cow dung and rattlesnakes? Know where and why?
