The oil price is up and here is the companywho can drill for it where it is. This is the biggest off shore driller in the pack.

As the price of oil rises, oil companies like Exxon and Chevron are more willing to pay the price to search below the ocean floor, making RIG well positioned for years to come.

Most of the big oil finds of the last few years have been under water. RIG is the number one underwater driller by any measure. It only makes sense that Brazil, Nigeria, Norway, China, Canada and others will seek their help to get it out. Also, they have moved HQ to Switzerland which may help boost profits from a currency standpoint.

Going with strong CAPS rating, and oil futures on why RIG will Outperform.

Many long term contracts and demand will grow as world economy grows.

RIG has much value and growth. Trans Ocean is the biggest driller in the world. Great management. I have listen to the earning call , no BS guys at the helm. It has diversity within the oceanic drilling platforms. Great Return on equity , porfit margin and overall balance sheet,some debt becuse of an aquisition and not much competition. PE is aorund 5 an 7.
Why oil sector long?
Oil sector will always make money fo the invesor and the economy for at least 50 more years. Every President form Nixon to Obama has spoke about the United States not being so depended on Oil. It sounds good but nothing happens if they did something about it would take around 10-20 years to make a dent in the oil companies profits because the emerge markets will pick up the slack. I bought at $ 75 will keep on buying till 100 to 125 dollars. I will sell at around 140 to 160 dollars in one to six years. Depending on the mood of the market.

The oil supply will be shorter and consumption greater with China and India's economies improving. Hard pressed to keep up with offshore demand for drillers.
Recs
Oil supplies are more weighted to deep water

NOBODY CAN DO DEEP WATER DRILLING LIKE RIG

Good value - Low P/E. Offshoring is the future

With Transoceans solid management team, their diversity within the oceanic drilling platforms (jackups and middle depth rigs can be put into and out of service to help maintain their contract pricing) and the future deep sea rigs being a large plus (due to recent developments in the Gulf of Mexico, and off the coasts of Sierre Leone and Ghana), the future is very bright indeed - look for blowout years in 2010 and 11.

Gotta drill deeper to get the black gold . These guys are at the leading edge of their industry .
Recs
BP find will help with the sales of this company.

This sector is likely to become more selective and RIG is a great play on the theme of deep water ocean finds. Much more upside that the S&P

Oil going higher.
