  The oil and gas industry is highly cyclical, with the downturn that started in mid-2014 simply the most recent example of the extremes that take place. But after oil plummeted from more than $100 a barrel to around $30, the energy industry, looked at as a whole, seemed to suggest that it had finally been chastened and would live within its financial means. Only that resolve may not be realistic, with recent results from Pioneer Natural Resources Company (NYSE:PXD), Helmerich & Payne, Inc. (NYSE:HP), and Noble Corporation plc (NYSE:NE) all suggesting that you'll want to start paying close attention to costs again.
