Seems that is said every quarter!

They say the market MAY have hit bottom. They are only talking about land drilling.

An uptick in land drilling would actually be bad for us.

“The Permian is going to be the future of the U.S. and help in world supply … It’s got the best rock, obviously the best margins, and it will provide essentially the only growth long-term.” -Timothy Dove, COO, Pioneer Natural Resources

This isn’t what you’d call good news. You ever sailed the Permian Basin? The bathimetry isn’t very forgiving.

Gulf of Mexico still essential for Energy

Oil Glut Forecasted into 2017 as Demand in Asia “Wobbly”

Deep Water Rig Expansion 2020

Hopefully, this is the time, 2017, for a turn around.
Had a mariner from ECO stay with me, last week.
It was so nice to see him and catch up on his thoughts of the industry.
Seems like the boats are beginning to move in Port Fourchon.
And, BP has signed another contract for the second phase of the Mad Dog project.
Although the price of oil may not be as high as it was in 2014, it appears to be stable.
Looking forward to seeing mariners, again, soon.
Wishing you all the very best.

Wishing all of you a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year of 2017.
Hoping to see a big change in this industry for the upcoming year.
