Nice share structure and low float at the moment. Some of the smart institutional money has already found this one, may be a good sign.I need to understand midstream economics better to know what I think is a good plan.
The board of directors looks real strong, had a surprise yet very familiar name, Bush. We've got Bush..
Neil's involvement and existence is news to me. Success breeds success. Heads of state, direct relatives, generals, ambassadors, etc, I tend to interpret as advantageous on bods of any sector, for they have pull..
I remember seeing Jonathan Bush on fast money tv program years ago pumping his new medical software,CRM -Athena Health. While I thought he seemed like quirky yet cool individual I had no idea he had it in him to build a multi-billion dollar company.

Large pull back over the last year has made this one an interesting value buy in this range.
Double Eagle Petroleum Co., an energy company, engages in the exploration, development, production and sale of natural gas and crude oil primarily in the Rocky Mountain Basins of the western United States. The company’s principal properties include the Atlantic rim coal bed natural gas project located in south central Wyoming; the Pinedale Anticline property in the Green River basin of Wyoming; the Wind River basin in central Wyoming; and the Moxa Arch and other areas located in southwest Wyoming. It also holds interest in various properties located in North Dakota, Oklahoma, Texas and Utah. In addition, Double Eagle Petroleum Co. engages in the transportation of gas through its intrastate gas pipeline. As of December 31, 2009, the company had estimated proved reserves of 89.8 billion cubic feet of natural gas and 419,000 barrels of oil. It also owned interests in a total of 1,172 producing wells and had an interest in 359,830 gross acres natural gas prone basins of the Rocky Mountains. The company was founded in 1972 and is headquartered in Casper, Wyoming.

This company is a play on the Niobrara (remember different area), as Samson is. Double Eagle has 70,000 net acres and is planning to drill one test well this year.
A very important note, Double Eagle's asset is in the Atlantic Rim that is approximately 200 miles from where Samson/Chesapeake/Halliburton (HAL) are. Also, Double Eagle is the 12th largest coal bed methane producer in Wyoming, so this company is not to be valuated like a company with substantial liquid reserves.
At the end of the third quarter of 2010, gas was 97% of the business. This company also has a pipeline-based income. On February 22nd of this year, Brookfield Asset Management upgraded the company from hold to buy based on third quarter earnings.
It seems that Double Eagle is maintaining a profit. This company could have significant upside if its Niobrara holdings are oily, but this is a play on speculation.

Such a great small cap stock.
Double Eagle Petroleum (Nasdaq: DBLE )
Double Eagle is a small exploration and production company whose main assets are in the Atlantic Rim and the Pinedale Anticline in Wyoming. For a company with such a small market cap, Double Eagle already produces very strong cash flows. It generated $25 million in operating cash flow in 2010 alone, compared to its market cap of just $94 million as of yesterday's close. That's less than four times cash flow!
What's more, this company has amassed more than 70,000 net acres in the Niobrara shale. While this company's cash flows and reserves consist mainly of natural gas, Double Eagle may add a meaningful amount of oil to its production and reserve mix as it starts to explore its Niobrara acreage.

Low price-to-sale ratios w/ this one...
Double Eagle Petroleum (DBLE) – As with any oil company, there is a necessity to replace its reserves while producing. The cost of exploration and acquisition is high, which is some of the reasons for narrow industry margins. As of the time that this article was written, the price to sales ratio was only 2.0. The industry is recorded at 5.44(numbers vary slightly according to source).
One year sales growth is 22%, and this is similar to the 5 year average. Of course, quarter over quarter sales growth between years is down roughly 30%, which is disconcerting. With only one analyst covering the stock, it is hard to get a good read on the future earnings prospects. As well, there is a lot of fluctuation in this company as sometimes they use derivative instruments to hedge, and other times they don’t.
Based on a simple price to sales ratio and increases in sales between fiscal years, this could be a good small cap oil play.

Continued upside has been predicted, thoughts?
Double Eagle Petroleum Co. (DBLE) is an oil and natural gas exploration and production company. Its interests are centered in the Rocky Mountain region. Double also transports gas through its interstate pipeline. Historically Double Eagle has been a coal bed methane producer. Although this is a low cost producer, most of the excitement is about its Niobrara acreage. Double Eagle currently has 71,248 net acres in this area. I would guess not all of this acreage is in liquids, but it will only take one major find to create a large upside to the stock price. Double Eagle has produced an implied value to its company based on reserves, the Niobrara acreage and it pipeline. This implied net asset value per share is:
Low Implied Net Asset Value- $213.5 million or $18.75/share
High Implied Net Asset Value- $481 million or $56.34/share
The largest difference between the net asset values is the Niobrara acreage. Take note, this is Double Eagle's own valuation estimate and should be treated as such.
P/E Ratio- 56.5
Price to Sales- 1.38
Price to Tangible Book- 1.04

Perhaps this might shed some light...
Crude oil climbs above $111 a barrel
http://www.marketwatch.com/story/crude-oil-climbs-above-111-a-barrel-2011-04-08?dist=beforebell
SYDNEY (MarketWatch) -- Oil futures climbed over $111 a barrel in Nymex electronic trading, recently trading up 76 cents at $111.06 a barrel in Asian hours midday Friday. It closed at a 30-month high in regular trading in New York on Thursday. "We think markets are somewhat confused as to what is going on with Saudi production and whether, in fact, it is being ramped up to the full extent possible in order to offset the Libyan production shortfall," said energy analysts at MF Global. "Until more data comes in, we suspect the markets will be relatively well-bid for at least several more weeks to come," they said.

blckcat...if you've migrated over to this thread from AIB, I wouldn't short ANY oil or LNG stock while the market is still confused.
...IMO.

DBLE 10.50 + 1.08, might have more room to run. The main reason is they hold 70,000 net acres in the Niobrara play. Samson,SSN recently sold 24,000 of their Niobrara acres to CHK for a little over $3,000 per acre or $74 mil.
A few days ago Cnooc agreed to buy a 1/3 interest in CHK's 800,000 Niobrara acres for 570 mil cash upfront and funding 2/3 of drilling and completion costs for another 697 mil thru 2014. That values a net 267,000 acres to Cnooc at $2135 per acre upfront and over $4700/acre overall.
It remains to be seen whether or not DBLE's acreage is comparable to SSN's and CHK's, but with a current EV of ~190 mil at 10.50 per share and the Niobrara alone possibly being worth 210 mil at 3,000 per acre or more, one can see why this hot streak DBLE has been on may have more room to run.
Given their other producing properties and 90+ BCFE reserves + 28 mil positive cash flow or about 2.50 per share, I think that DBLE could easily reach it's old highs of 20+ in the next few months. (Or get bought out at 15+ before that).
All imho and good luck,
Vic
