July 4, 20196 yr I think capacity is the issue, not limited cheap feedstock. Demand should resolve it eventually.
July 4, 20196 yr Production is definitely being over built, it’s freaking insane. Everyone and their brother in law is in the process of throwing up an ethylene unit
July 5, 20196 yr Which is interesting given I’ve had a European wholesaler looking for PP andPE for a while and not a single returned call or email.

While I see some concern on certain chemiçals, the cheap NG feed stock is doing nothing but printing money for us. The supply is still trying to catch up to the demand because most chemical plants 10 years ago were barely above water and so they were just trying to maintain. As far as ethylene the forward thinking places saw it coming and started building units that eat ethylene like crazy to make a more expensive product. So ethylene prices dropping as forecasted maybe a good thing for us. And it will probably let us aggressively go after assets of other companies or for us to just swallow them whole
July 8, 20196 yr Yeah, I know we were in the process of buying out a Brazilian company but they balked at the last minute trying to get more money and our group walked off and said deal is off. Now we are probably just waiting for the Brazilian company to go bankrupt in a few years and buy them for cheap

July 11, 20196 yr If they were blindsided by this it is easy to see why the company struggled so much.

July 24, 20196 yr Basic Energy Services just completed a 3.4 mile horizontal in the Delaware. CARLSBAD, N.M. (AP) — Drilling of the longest horizontal oil and gas well in the history of the Permian Basin has been completed as booming oil production in the region continues to center around shale in southeast New Mexico and West Texas. Fort Worth-based Basic Energy Services recently announced the well was completed in the Wolfcamp, The Carlsbad Current-Argus reports. Wolfcamp is shale of the Delaware Basin, which sits below most of New Mexico's Eddy County and the southern half of the state's Lea County http://www.fortworthbusiness.com/news/historic-horizontal-well-in-permian-basin-completed/article_2c0622ba-ae34-11e9-91e8-d7eded5d7a30.html

July 31, 20196 yr Apparently, the weeks(months) of rig count drops and the caped management at most everywhere is finally starting to show in production declines. API estimate in the low/mid 11mmb/d region, well over a million bpd and almost 2mm bpd lower than the actual recent high and max estimates. Market has to equilibrate sometime
July 31, 20196 yr EIA Petroleum Inventories: Crude -8.5M barrels vs. -2.6M consensus, -10.8M last week. Gasoline -1.8M barrels vs. -1.5M consensus, -0.2M last week.

Production is falling, demand is still pretty damn strong. Gonna be interesting times folks. Now pointing to a pretty healthy storage deficit Might be the one, true thing that could save a bunch of the small E&P's. Edited July 31, 20196 yr by Trey3216
July 31, 20196 yr Yeah I'll take the under. There a lot of zombie companies out there that even $75 oil won't fix. I dont think we were ever much over 11 million a day.
