The latest in the DOE short term outlook
- EIA raises 2018 output estimate to 9.96 mbpd from 9.90 mbpd
- 2017 world oil demand forecast increased by 70,000 bpd to 1.56mbpd in growth
- 2018 world oil demand forecast unchanged at 1.63mbpd in growth
I hate to be the guy who just draws a line to extend the trend, but we know that drilling rigs have gone up for 16 weeks in a row and there's a lag before that comes online.
