Oil Market: Where is the Bottom?
Attachment: Oil & Gas Capex Decline
SUGAR LAND--March 30, 2020--Written by John Egan for Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--March was a cruel month for Oil & Gas producers, their investors, their suppliers and their employees, and the worst may be yet to come. Hammered by collapsing demand triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic and an oil market flooded by Saudi Arabia and Russia, crude oil prices fell 50% during March. Although the oil industry was designated as an "essential" business for the COVID-19 outbreak, a designation that is expected to keep their employees on the job, weakened demand and rapidly filling storage means rig laydowns and job cuts are expected in the near future.
