hackett, welcome back to "mad money." good to see you, sir. >> good to see you, jim.nk you for having me on. >> i have to tell you, i think a lot of people who follow your stock and who worked on the stock missed the point. more prospects than some gigantic prospects, and i think that maybe people are just focused too much on natural gas right now? i think they're too focused on growth, and remember that this is just a small group of our shareholders that rotated out. the people who will get the story are going to stay in this, and this stock will continue to go forward, you know, and so we're very confident. this was, as you suggested, a very, we think, prudent move relative to one of the commodities in our particular production platform has gone temporarily, and so we're taking the right decision, i think, to just shave a little bit off the growth. still very strong organic growth, but shave a little back to get better returns, move dry gas drilling into liquid oriented drilling. it's all the things you would want a management team to do, but there are some -- there

i think anadarko's the greatest, but without hackett do we still want to own it? i'm going to be glued to this presentation from this high-growth oil company that survived the macondo oil spill with flying colors. also on tuesday, chevron's got an analyst's meeting. we heard from exxon this week that production figures were only so-so, and it was a huge disappointment, causing people to bail despite high oil prices. will chevron say the same thing? do we have to stick with more nimble independent producers like an anadarko if we like what they tell us or cramer fave eog or continental resources? we're going to get some figures and some facts, and i'm going to come back to you on the chevron meeting because every year it is one of the most important analyst meetings. chevron always gives you the straight skinny on where oil prices are going. they've been uncannily correct. whence after the close we hear from vera bradley. now, this is a heavily shorted handbag and accessory stock that's become a brutal battleground. shorts got squeezed today. viciously. will the sa

hackett on last week.just quickly, the 30-second description of drop down. >> if you think about where we are, anadarko midstream owns assets outside -- that inventory is available for western to purchase over time. >> now, there's plenty of properties. on page five, there's an unbelievably vivid and exciting even though you're -- i -- relatively risk -- less risk portfolio that you have. there is a chart on page five. it's liquid rich versus dry grass basis. i have always prided myself in thinking i know about some of these fields, but i see this greater green river basin. you went to -- i mean, it sounds like even though you have some great properties, there could be many big ones ahead that could drop down. >> if you think about those particular fields, you go back to us acquiring the assets from anadarko, our latest acquisition has been mountain gas resources, which is the green river basin. it's been a great basin for us for a long time. these assets came from original western gas. we've got a lot of

earlier this week we heard from jim hackett, one of the most aggressive deep water explorers out there and according to him the deep water business is back and bigger than ever and here to stay. in part because of long lead times, and also there's a sense that $80 to $90 oil, bye-bye, thing of the past, which makes the price of deep water drilling more than worth the cost. 86% of the company's $10 billion backlog is for offshore equipment. a huge number of offshore rigs need to be replaced because of tightened safety standards and nov is winning the contracts after contract after contract. the on-shore drilling boom is starting to cool off. 90% of oil drilling equipment is provided by national-oilwell varco equipment. think of national-oilwell as being the windows of down hole drilling. they make the standard operating system the rest of the country can work with. they are working on a new rig control system to manage multiple automated tools from multiple companies. you can plug in tools for making connections, drilling optimization, stability and rig maintenance and national oil well
