James J. Cunnane Jr., CFA, Managing Director and Chief Investment Officer, and Quinn T. Kiley, Managing Director and Portfolio Manager, MLP and Energy Infrastructure, Advisory Research Investment Management
James Cunnane: We are the MLP (master limited partnership) and energy infrastructure team of Advisory Research Investment Management. Our 13-person team is located in Saint Louis, Missouri where we manage approximately $5 billion of MLP and energy infrastructure assets.
Wally Forbes: Energy is your concentration?
Cunnane: Energy Infrastructure is our absolute concentration. We have a team that has built up a track record over the past 18 years, which is the longest track record among MLP managers.
We��e talking about pipelines and gathering systems and storage tanks and other energy infrastructure assets that are critical to the function of the U.S. economy. And we think that investment in them is an excellent way for investors to access a couple of key traits. First, when you invest in the energy infrastructure you tend to invest in assets that have a high level of current yield. Second, they have some growth. They tend to be great diversifiers when added to traditional asset classes. And they also can have some tax advantages. So, when you invest in energy infrastructure, you get a nice set of characteristics that, in our mind, is unique from what�� available in most other liquid asset classes.

These two fields are the Pinedale Anticline and Jonah fields located in southwestern Wyoming. The fields currently contain 2,000 producing wells between them, but Ultra Petroleum (NYSE: UPL ) and QEP Resources (NYSE: QEP ) , the operators for the fields and Vanguard's partners in the development of these fields, plan to drill another 970 wells, which will obviously substantially increase Vanguard's production from the fields going forward.

Advisors' Opinion:- [By Karee Venema]
One equity that falls under the small-cap umbrella, and looks poised to benefit from a contrarian boon is shipping concern Frontline Ltd. (FRO).
Shares of Frontline have more than doubled in value since hitting a decade-plus low of $1.71 last May. In fact, the stock tagged a new annual high of $5.18 in early January.
- [By Dan Caplinger]
The reason for the disconnect between earnings and stock performance has to do with the changing fundamentals for shipping overall. For years, shipping companies both on the dry-bulk and the tanker side of the industry have suffered from weakness in the global economy after having built huge numbers of new ships during better times. That forced Overseas Shipholding Group to seek bankruptcy protection late last year and has left tanker giant Frontline (NYSE: FRO ) under considerable financial pressure as it continues to labor under a substantial debt load.
- [By Tyler Crowe]
Oil tankers could also see a benefit as well. With potential of the SUMED pipeline being shut down, it would mean that tankers would need to increase traffic by 2 million barrels per day and increase its shipment times as much as LNG tankers.�Norway's�Frontline� (NYSE: FRO ) , the world's largest oil tanker fleet, has day rates of about $25,000 for its oil carriers, so it's not as much of a win as LNG carriers. Also, higher fuel prices for all shipments will eat into that revenue boost.�
