Attachment: null
SUGAR LAND--September 9, 2015--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--Looking past current low prices for crude oil, Andy Lipow, president of Lipow Oil Associates LLC (Houston, Texas), took a longer-range view--to 2020--and predicted planned pipelines and outbound rail transport capacity will be more than enough to meet expected crude-oil production growth, resulting in narrower differentials. Speaking August 25 at the 27th Annual Rocky Mountain Summit, organized by the Colorado Oil & Gas Association (COGA) (Denver, Colorado), Lipow discussed projected crude-oil production growth and planned outbound pipeline investments for the West Texas, North Dakota and Colorado/Wyoming markets.
