shite, someone pay ME $35/bbl to take this shite.

I’m sure there are ways to legally dispose of it cheaper than that.

All storage is getting full. No where to go. Texas Gov Abbott is about to order all production to stop. Why give away their assets?

That means WTI is literally paying people to buy crude oil.

Time for the Dems to allow Trump to fill up all the oil reserves to the top.

I don't get it. How can something of tangible value be negative?

Has anyone figured out who's stuck, and tried to unload their position?

I'm really glad I'm not in any way dependent on the local LA economic picture.

How does that even work; they pay you to take it?

What are they doing at that point, putting it back in the ground?

The May oil futures contracts expire tomorrow. For holders of those contracts if they don't sell their contracts now, they will be obligated to take physical delivery of the oil.

Since there's no place to store the oil cheaply, the holders of those contracts are effectively selling the oil for the price the buyer would have to pay to store the physical oil.

I know nothing about oil, but can the US add to the strategic reserves with prices like this?

The left said we were gonna run out of oil by 2000. I guess they were wrong.

That being said I'm hearing some strange shite on spot offers from midstream purchasers in the field.
