Deep Dive – November 2019

Published on: November 28th, 2019

Last December, Julian wrote about whether the shale sector would be able to pay its debts and maintain production growth. Recent high-profile defaults have shown his concerns were well-founded. Going forward, production growth will be slower, which has important implications for the wider economy, US credit markets and even global oil prices.

      Hi Alfonso. Sorry I've produced a number. Can you be more specific? Do you have a link perhaps? Regards

    Hi Julian are you still betting on EDH22-EDU23? What levels would make you think about getting out of this? I imagine you will be rolling the contracts every 3 months or so as long as it remains in the current range?

      Hi JL...Yes I think like those but they need to be rolled. So that you are running the constant ED10 vs ED 16 or ED10 vs ED20. Both are plays on a weaker economy and higher unemployment

      Yes Wiktor ultimately a squeeze on US shale supply should be bullish. PS If the $ starts to turn lower that could be the real kicker
