Portfolio Manager Ric Dillon of Diamond Hill Capital Management says that his firm’s largest position is in EOG Resources Inc (EOG), which has had success in hydraulic fracturing both on the oil and natural gas sides.
“Several years ago Suken Patel, who is our Energy Analyst, identified EOG as a company that had better prospects than were reflected in the consensus estimates; specifically he thought that they would have good success with their hydraulic fracturing in the middle part of the U.S., primarily on the oil side,” Dillon said.

Dillon says that this was unusual, as most fracking success within the U.S. has been with natural gas; however, EOG Resources has had success with both.
“Suken was estimating better results, which turned out to be more correct than the consensus. So that would explain why it’s been a good story and why it’s one of our largest holdings.” Dillon said.
