As a long-term shareholder in ConocoPhillips (NYSE:COP), I wanted to compare them will a leading domestic shale producer - EOG Resources (NYSE:EOG). As you surely are aware, COP had been one of the "Big 3" international integrated oil companies prior to the spin-off of Phillips 66 (NYSE:PSX), a move that unleashed tremendous shareholder value. But now COP is an upstream only company and the comparison to EOG is relevant and - at least to me - informative and interesting.
The following chart compares some relevant valuation metrics of the two companies:
