Tuesday, September 25, 2012, 4:25 AM International regulators have withdrawn proposals for tougher oversight of the physical oil market after opposition from the IEA, OPEC and major oil companies, the FT reports. Regulators had wanted to use only completed deals to set benchmarks and enforce mandatory reporting of transaction data, but will settle for the current system of bids and offers despite acknowledging the potential for manipulation. 2 Comments [Top Stories, Global & FX, Energy]
Wednesday, June 13, 2012, 4:40 AM The eurozone crisis helped oil prices shave off around 20% from their 2012 highs as the supply/demand ratio narrowed, according to the latest IEA report. The slump accelerated in May, with downward pressure also stemming from a slowdown in China and excess supply from some big producers. Crude futures +0.1% to $83.42. 1 Comment [Commodities]
Monday, April 9, 2012, 10:50 AM Oneok Partners (OKS -0.9%) plans to enter the market for transporting crude oil with a $1.5B-$1.8B investment to build a 1,300 mile pipeline that will connect North Dakota's Bakken Shale to the transport hub in Cushing, Oklahoma. The pipeline will have a capacity of 200K bpd and be ready in 2015. Comment! [Energy]
Sunday, March 25, 2012, 5:05 AM As gasoline prices soar, the Interior Department will again issue a request for drilling interest in potential development leases in Cook Inlet off the Alaskan coast. While the department reckons the area could contain over 1B barrels of oil and 1.2T cubic feet of natural gas, a federal lease sale a year ago failed. 7 Comments [Energy]
Thursday, March 22, 2012, 9:52 AM Inflation in Canada's oil sands sector is set to rise to 2008's frenzied level, warns Imperial Oil (IMO) CEO Bruce March as the growing number of projects creates shortages of materials and labor. Imperial's stock took a hit over the past few days, in part due to the eye-popping $2B price tag for the expansion of one of its sands projects. Comment! [Energy, Commodities]
Wednesday, January 25, 2012, 11:43 AM Total (TOT -0.5%) stops buying oil from Iran, as per the new EU sanctions, but CEO Christophe de Margerie doubts the boycott will have a big effect on Iran or on prices. Of Iran's 2.2M bpd exports, 1.5M go to Asia, so, de Margerie says, "Iran may give a discount to make it easier and quicker (to re route this oil) and nothing will change." Comment! [Energy]
Wednesday, December 7, 2011, 10:07 AM Saudi Arabia boosted crude output last month to 10M barrels/day, Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi said yesterday. That would be the most since 1980. BNP Paribas' Harry Tchilinguirian was "circumspect" about the figure, as he doubts that Saudi would "risk over-supplying the market."
1 Comment [Energy]
Friday, August 5, 2011, 10:03 AM Oil futures trade at close to $86 per barrel, showing only a minor retracement of yesterday's fall. A quick look at Big Oil show shares trailing the broad market: XOM -0.8%, CVX -0.9%, BP -1.1%, RDS.A -1.9%, COP -0.9%. 1 Comment [Energy]
Thursday, July 21, 2011, 2:40 PM Shares of Diamond Offshore Drilling (DO -3.9%) falter after the firm just misses Q2 estimates, hitting $1.91 EPS vs. $1.92 consensus. Executives say the firm had more work stoppages this month on its deepwater rigs, but in the past 45 days has also added 10 new agreements worth $1B in revenue. 1 Comment [Energy, On the Move]
Thursday, July 14, 2011, 9:22 AM ConocoPhillips' (COP) spinoff shines a light on rivals Chevron (CVX) and Exxon (XOM) to see if they follow a similar course. Investors will push for the move, but the firms may move slow to decide. Premarket: COP +8%, XOM +0.8%, CVX +1%. 2 Comments [On the Move, Quick Ideas, Energy]
Wednesday, July 13, 2011, 7:47 AM The IEA says it's still "too early" to take action on another oil release, but fires back at critics of its decision to release 60M barrels of oil last month by citing increases in demand and lower production. The agency will reportedly make a decision on a potential oil release on about July 23. 4 Comments [Commodities, Energy]
Friday, July 8, 2011, 3:59 PM Russia's long-history of elbowing out Western energy producers may be ending, as the country faces challenges mining remote areas with outdated equipment. The same potential is seen in China, and two firms in line to develop the large fields are Chesapeake (CHK +0.2%) and Continental Resources (CLR -0.4%). Comment! [Energy, Commodities]
Friday, July 8, 2011, 2:12 PM Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.A) plans to produce more gas than oil after 2012. "The future belongs to gas. The known reserves will last for 250 years. Gas power plants complement renewable energies perfectly," CEO Peter Voser says. The firm is trying to move forward with a $12B gas deal with Iraq. Comment! [Energy]
Sunday, June 26, 2011, 5:45 AM The IEA consulted Saudi Arabia, China and India before it approved the release of 60M barrels of its emergency reserves, the agency's executive director says. Nobuo Tanaka adds that the release is meant to fill the gap in supply until higher crude volumes from Saudi Arabia reach the market. 34 Comments [Energy]
Tuesday, April 26, 2011, 8:05 AM Saudi Arabia is 'not comfortable' with oil prices and is concerned about their effect on global economic growth, says Khalid al-Falih, the CEO of state-owned Saudi Arabian Oil. The kingdom will maintain a 'sizable cushion' of 3M-4M barrels a day of idle capacity, he says. Crude -0.1% at $112.17. 1 Comment [Energy, Global & FX]
Monday, April 11, 2011, 7:59 AM Libyan rebels won't accept an African Union ceasefire plan unless Gaddafi quits. The AU says Gaddafi agrees to end hostilities and hold talks about political reform, but there's no talk of him resigning. (previous) 1 Comment [Global & FX]
