The US rig count rose 29 this last week alone, the 11th increase of the past 12 weeks

 

The US could add as much as 500,000 barrels a day over next year in production if prices remain above $50/barrel

 

Rising Output from Canada and Brazil may also put a cap on Prices

 

Russia also has the capacity to increase production once the 6 month OPEC deal expires.

is this good or bad 

Good for US economy, bad for anyone hoping for higher Oil Prices

 

We might be stuck with oil prices below $60/barrel for at least 1 more year because oil in storage inventories remain at record high levels and demand is still barely keeping up with supply

 

And to think when I was a kid 10-15 years ago they kept talking about oil running out really soon and there being supply problems :rip:

It still imports over 9 Million barrels a day tho. It imports about 40% of its consumption still

 

But 10 years go it imported like 70% of its consumption before the shale revolution

Canada where im from is funnier...

 

We produce over twice as much oil as we consume... but we have no pipeline connecting where the Oil in Canada is to where most of our population is

 

So we export almost all our oil to the US and import almost all our oil consumption from Middle East and US :rip:
