I voted too risky. The company doesn't have a very long track record, has high debt ($15B debt vs. $15B market cap), and is paying out higher dividends than it has income. Any downturn in oil price and I think you see a big dividend cut. Generally when a company is sporting a 10%+ yield, there is a reason.
I think ESV is a much safer play if you want to be in the sector.
