From Social Media Today -- March 9, 2021

Link here. This is quite amazing when you think about it: Saudi exporting only 5.84 million bopd. The Permian oil basin produces around 4.5 million bopd.


And this seems to be "false precision," estimating a global shortage of 380,000 bopd this year and even less, 130,000 bopd in 2022.


And then this.

How can analysts and experts be so far off?

  • consensus forecast: a build of 800K;
  • actual: a build of almost 13 million bbls

That's API data. We'll see the EIA data tomorrow.

Meanwhile, US oil production jumped 300K bopd to 10.0 million bopd.

Liberace 

This is from 1955. 

I saw Liberace live on stage in Las Vegas in 1977 (or thereabouts). He did this exact act -- same jokes -- identical to that in this clip. Imagine, doing this twice a night for twenty-five years.
