How low can we expect them to go here in BR. I see some reports indicating another .50

Anyone?

Whats the main reason for this drop over the past month or so and how long should it last? I know it generally goes down during the cooler months but not this much.

The reason given is production is at high especially in US and global demand is down, FWIW. Hope it's sustained for awhile and not just a short term blip. I do about 30k year. Would love a break

Shale boom is flooding oil in the market. Saudis aren't pulling back because they think a lot of these shale projects will shut down with sustained price supressio.

US has 1900 rigs across the US. The smaller companies without economies of scale will likely suffer but none of the big players will go away.

the Keystone Pipeline doesn't even make economic sense if the price of a barrel of oil remains this low.

Right. But fracking is a finicky business. The big guys have said they can be profitable at about $40. But a lot are starting to lose money at $80. The technology gap between companies is vast.

Listening to too much bs. Most of the oil on the GOM shelf was drilled when oil was below $5 a barrel.

I never thought I'd see gas under $2.80 in my lifetime again let alone $2.59. Why has it been so cheap? Hasn't been close to this since the Bush years.

I have no O&G stock, so I'm loving cheap prices. I know a lot of people who hate it, but mainly because a lot of their investments are tied into O&G.

It was $2.40 at Sam's @ Siegen last Sunday 11/9 when I drove to NOLA.

If you live in south la you're tied to the oil and gas industry whether you realize it or not
