From the Economist's Chair: Back towards the sweet spot?
Sentiment may be shifting to the upside for a US shale sector that recently took a standing count, but is it premature to herald fledgling recovery for a sector battered by collapsing demand, slumping prices, capital starvation, bankruptcies and an incoming Biden Admini...

From the Economist’s Chair: Irrational Exuberance

From the Economist's Chair: US election fog could intensify crude’s roller coaster
Intra-day crude volatility has doubled since early-September, on renewed uncertainty over Opec+ intentions, recovering Libyan production, weakening oil demand amid resurgent Covid-19 and, not least, a fractious US Presidential and Senate election campaign, which may see...

From the Economist’s Chair: Dog Days

From the Economist’s Chair: Paint It Bleak
As summer arrives and the world emerges from lock-down, hopes are high for gradual economic and oil demand recovery. Alongside reasonable levels of Opec+ discipline, this could help place a floor under crude prices. But whisper it quietly, a bleaker scenario also exists...

From the Economist’s Chair: US shale – this time is different
US shale’s decline and recovery trajectory from 2014-2017 is unlikely to be replicated this time around. A different market backdrop, financial pressures and sector consolidation all point towards a “hockey stick” path, with a steep decline and shallower recovery likely...

From the Economist's Chair: Opec+ isn’t over until it’s over...
British Labour Prime Minister Harold Wilson said during the 1960s that “a week is a long time in politics”. If so, a month seems like an eternity for an oil market buffeted by coronavirus and the Opec+ fracturing that took place on 6 March in Vienna.
