This is interesting. I'd think the bigger the company, the more money to spend on boosting drilling operations but, apparently, not. 

Rising oil price will spur drilling by small, intermediate producers, analysts predict

Very interesting read. Love to hear Tom Kirkman's take ... But it does make some sense to me, though we've just seen a lot of consolidation lately

The hamster wheel of new drilling debt is freshly oiled so no squeaks, and the hamsters are speeding up their pace.
