The Company is a marine contractor, which provides manned diving, pipelay and pipe burial services to the offshore oil and natural gas industry.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

At this point, the oil & gas services sector is beaten into the ground, just because oil has fallen to $90/bbl. It would have to fall to $40/bbl before these folks see even the slightest slowdown in activity.

DVR provides "services for marine oil drillers. It seems that in oil drilling business, the less there is oil left, the more drilling is needed to find the next well. Basicalliy that means, that DVR will have its work cut out as long as there is any marine drilling done or current wells being upkept.





I like stocks like this, the business is rather simple and the service provided makes sense and has a rational demand. The company is rather small, but as I hear, it is starting to get a solid reputation for being a reliable partner. Perhaps the company is a bit boring, but as the valuation is good, I see that this investment makes financial sense for me.
