Cover Letter - Haven't figured out how
So I redid my resume per your advice (it's attached for reference, and critique if you feel like it - I know I need to quantify some value added, but haven't figured out how to get to that point yet).
I work in O&G services (a fracturing company), and goal is equity research on the O&G sector
I'm more concerned with getting a good cover letter together, so it's attached as well. It's for email applications, so the letter would be in the email body with a one-page resume pdf attached. What do you think? Is it too long, too wordy, too ???

I'd to express my interest in the (position title) position, which was posted on (location of posting) earlier this week. I have broad exposure to the industry, ranging from field experience on the production and stimulation sides, to the logistical side that takes place in the head office.
As a business analyst with (current company), I have the benefit of working in virtually all areas of the industry - I model multi-million dollar frac's, report on (the firms) ROIC, among other responsibilities. This position requires an in depth understanding of the industry's costs and drivers, which is a vital part to any research-related position.
I developed the skill set to handle long, unpredictable hours operating a cement truck for (company). If three hours of my work means the analyst can spend an extra fifteen minutes with a covered company’s management, I'll do it no questions asked.
Given my experience in all sides of the upstream services sector, I am a particularly good fit for this position. I'd like to discuss my qualifications and welcome any advice with respect to (Firm name) at your earliest convenience. You can reach me at (phone number), or via email at (email). A copy of my résumé is attached for your reference. Thanks for your time and consideration.
Concise, stronger verbs, audience-centered (My draft can be improved)
