Active Rigs In North Dakota Hold Steady At 66 -- July 11, 2018

Drudge banner today -- "OPEC oil output jumps; Saudi opens taps"; from CNBC --
  • Saudi Arabia's oil production jumped by nearly 500,000 barrels per day in June as it aims to put more supply into the market to tame the cost of crude
  • output from the 15-member producer group OPEC was up 173,000 bpd as the group prepares to lift production caps in place since 2017
  • OPEC forecast that global oil demand will cross 100 million bpd for the first time in 2019, but warned trade tensions could negatively impact the market
  • no mention that Saudi production always goes up in the summer, but this might be a bit earlier than usual, and a bit more than usual for June
  • no mention that Saudi is increasing its own domestic refining and processing
  • production numbers important; export numbers more important
OPEC basket: up about 1%.
