Another high volatility da= in crude with WTI up over 5% and BRE up 3.5%. There has been consumer buy=ng in Asia and Europe, which has helped fuel this rally. Furthermore, Rig =ounts went down again with oil rigs down 10 to 1536 and gas ones down 8 to 338. Interestingly, Williston and P=rmian rigs took most of the hit, while EF gained 2. Seems consistent with =he companies which have been saying they will focus on their best plays wh=ch tend to be in the more mature Eagle ford area. Also, a point about OPEC December production. We said yes=erday it will be 28.8-28.9Mbpd. Interestingly, Iran actually upped its pro=uction around 160kbd mom; Iran's production has been pretty steady=so far this year. The extra crude from Iran will probably not find its way to the market however, so the effectiv= OPEC production mom is down more like 350kbd to 29.7, still above the cal= on OPEC but much less so than most in the market expects. My sense is Ira= upped production so as to store and ride the contango as its storage had been depleted at the beginning of=the year as China was buying. They have oil in the ground which is pretty =uch useless (although they are implicitly riding contango there as well). =heir thought process probably is that if prices rally, restrictions are lifted, or china comes back for spr=buying, why not have it ready. Yes u have to pay cost but it's you= national shipping company, probably much cheaper than 75 cents all in (i.=. insurance and freight rates). Happy holidays to everyone-see you in 2 weeks! Oil vols were a surprise today, rallying along with =latprice. With the weekend decay and price rally, one would expect prompt =ols to come off 2 vols..interestingly they ended up 1.5 vols.. We heard ab=ut some producer activity in cal16, taking advantage of the contango and relatively cheaper skew. Also, WTI/Br= vol spread rallied in the back (0.75 in dec5).. Jun5 and Dec5 wti/bre vol=spread is now getting into a sell region in my opinion... EFTA_R1_01784154 EFTA02598241
