If they need $50 WTI or Brent, they're going to have issues in my estimation. Off shore rigs with 80% fixed costs are breaking even, after royalties, at $35. That is a smaller exploration company with cost of interest. A larger producer should be making money almost down to the $20's.

Some frakers can make money in the $20's.

I honestly have a hard time believing this. I've seen the numbers from a WI perspective and the AFE amounts and actual recoveries don't come close to making sense at lower prices levels. I saw recently where EOG needed $34-$37 to breakeven in several areas and I think they have to possess one of the best group of assets of any shale producer.

BP Maddog breaks even in the $20's. I know that, I'm sure that's the same with thunderhorse and Atlantis. Those are some amazing assets.

LLOG said that they break even in deepwater in the $30's

Without a doubt, very few can service debt at that level though. New drilling and or workover is out the window as well.
