A slow day but a great day.WTI jumps (see earlier note). Those invested in oil are having a great day.
Oilprice: oil prices spike as EIA confirms inventory draw. Watch for gasoline prices to start going up -- now that we are approaching driving season ... and this:
Gasoline inventories, the EIA reported, fell by 4.6 million barrels in the seven days to March 8, which compared with a decline of 4.2 million barrels in the previous week. Distillate fuel inventories gained a modest 400,000 barrels, after falling by 2.4 million barrels in the last week of February.In our neighborhood, somewhat on the expensive side, least expensive regular gasoline is going for $2.29/gallon, a significant jump from the $2.09 just a few weeks ago, or whatever it was.
Oh, yes, I have to laugh. Yesterday or earlier this week or whenever it was, a lot of headlines were generated when it was reported that the EIA revised its estimates on US crude oil production for 2019. Headlines appeared to shout that US crude oil production was going to plummet (for any number of reasons). I didn't pay attention to the numbers. I don't think I even read the stories.
But at the linked oilprice article ... how far did the estimates plunge? Hold on to your hats. Here is the revision:
The EIA, in its latest Short-Term Energy Outlook, said it expected this at a record-high although it revised downwards the actual figure for 2019 by 110,000 bpd to 12.3 million bpd. Next year, the EIA expects U.S. crude oil production to hit 13 million bpd.You have got to be kidding. That was the downward revision that generated those headlines. Laughable.
False precision. 12 million bopd. 110,000 bopd. 0.9%. That much is sloshing around in a VLCC; a unit train, or a pipeline.
And just a year or so ago, the US was producing a paltry 10 million bopd.
I may replace the video above with Jessi Colter's version later. We'll see. I hope the angel that collects country western female singers also collects those who blog about the Bakken, all three of us.
