Make sure you are getting a decent dividend, so you know at least some of the benefit is coming to you.

One company I've picked up a bit of is Total (TTE). I consulted for them in the distant past, and they were a good company, with a smart and dedicated staff that worked some long hard hours. Total has lagged XOM and even OXY a bit, but the current dividend is 6.1% with a P/E of 7.7. Contrast to XOM with dividends of 3.7% and 1.8%, and P/Es of 13.
