Vallianz
is one of the first few oil and gas stocks I owned with an average buy price of
single digit cents. I know the company well and was once my biggest
holdings. After the high debt undertaken recently, I decided to divest, to retrieve some of
my initial invested capital leaving behind mostly profits.

From
the outlook and fundamentals, prospect of Vallianz is still extremely bright. It also has backing from Swiber and Rawabi. Swiber possessed good track record of
turning one of its earlier subsidiaries Kruez Subsea into a double bagger. In my
opinion, the management of Vallianz is also at the right age to accelerate
growth of the company coupled with integrity, drive and hard work.

In a
nutshell, be conservative and monitor the industry and company closely since
this is high growth but cyclical stock. It is better to be safe than sorry!
Nevertheless, unless unprecedented catastrophic events take place, I still give
two thumbs up for this company!
