RBN Energy: assessing midstream company performance after a decade of record investmentArchived. I've been alluding to this over the past few weeks, one example. From the linked RBN Energy blog:
After a decade in which unprecedented upstream production growth triggered massive investment in infrastructure to get crude oil, natural gas and NGLs to market, 2020 is a major inflection point for the U.S. midstream industry.
The good news is that after peaking at a whopping $37 billion in 2019, midstream capital expenditures are forecast to steeply decline over the next few years as the lion’s share of the infrastructure needed to gather, transport, process, and store current and expected hydrocarbon volumes has already been built or is nearing completion. And, despite continued cutbacks in capex by exploration and production companies, output is still forecast to rise in 2020, which should boost earnings growth for the midstream sector. But all midstream companies aren’t alike, and the prospects for individual entities vary widely because of the specific basins and hubs where they’ve decided to build, acquire, expand or divest. Today, we analyze the headwinds and tailwinds these companies will experience, and how their decisions over the past few years will help determine their prospects..

  1. What are the red numbers? (45 “ no typo”)

    1. The numbers in "red" are the initial production (the IP) numbers when a well comes off the confidential list. When the number is much lower than one might expect, I will add "no typo" to let readers know that I double-checked the number on the scout ticket.

      If the number in the same location is "dark blue," it means that it was a DUC before it reported its initial production (IP) number.
