Six Wells Coming Off Confidential This Weekend -- January 12, 2024

Locator: 46521B.

"Condemning" the US, the UK on responding to Houthi attacks: the Patriot candidate. What a doofus.

"Hanoi Jane": giving comfort and aid to the enemy comes to mind. "The Houthi Don" -- a bridge too far? Perhaps not. 

Red Sea: this is being described as the beginning of World War III, and yet, WTI can't hold at $73, and falls again, today. Speaks volumes with regard to global oil supply, global demand. Even OXY is up a measly 52 cents / share. NVDA? Flat. Taking world events in stride.

RBN Energy: distinguishing gas gathering pipelines from transmission and why it matters.

U.S. natural gas production continues to increase, with more growth expected at least through the middle of this decade to feed new LNG export capacity coming online along the Gulf Coast. Production growth will require new infrastructure, but long-distance transmission lines have become increasingly difficult to build due to entrenched environmental opposition. Meanwhile, gathering pipes have grown in size and length, blurring the lines between gathering and transmission. In today’s RBN blog, we’ll discuss what separates gathering systems from transmission pipelines, why those differences matter, and how those systems are continuing to evolve.
