No Wells Coming Off Confidential List -- October 13, 2020

Report cards: for the archives. Cato.org annual report card on state governors. New York's governor Cuomo gets an ... drum roll ... F. North Dakota's governor not that much better. I tend to agree --- based on the little I've seen. They all like spending money on pet projects.

Oasis bankruptcy: a reader had a question regarding Oasis. I will come back to it later. Spoiler alert: I don't have an answer. Maybe a reader will know something. For now, some links that might help:

Market:

Siberian water: record ship traffic; ice melt accelerates; link here to The WSJ; what's not to like?

OPEC in deep doo-doo: Oman to introcude 5 percent VAT by April, 2021. Link here

OPEC in deep doo-doo: Saudi Arabia in discussion to work a $10-billion deal to sell a stake in its pipeline business. Link here. Called "Project Seek." Saudi Aramco has an annual $75-billion-annual-dividend payout to cover in each of five consecutive years, starting this year. $10 billion is a pittance.

Not so urgent: Germany - Russian Nord Stream 2 natural gas line. Link here.

That was easy: striking oil workers in Norway agree to go back to work

OPEC basket, link here: another tumble. Starting to look like those New Yorker cartoons. You know the ones. Trading at $41.06, about a buck higher than WTI.
