11 Oct Hurricane Isaias Cuts U.S. Gulf Oil Output by 71% Hurricane Isaias has shut in nearly 1.46 million barrels per day of U.S. Gulf oil production, according to figures the Marine Minerals Administration released on Friday. Operators reported 1,458,814 bpd offline, equal to 71.51% of current Gulf oil output. Natural gas production has been affected as 11 Oct IEA to Release Another 100 Million Barrels as Stocks Run Low The International Energy Agency said earlier this week, after consulting with the G7, that it would release another 100 million barrels of diesel, gasoline, and crude oil. The additional barrels form part of a plan announced in March to release 400 million barrels of oil in response to the Hormuz sq 11 Oct Tanker Rates Top $1.4M a Day as Iran War Reroutes Crude The cost of moving crude oil by sea reached record levels last month as the war involving Iran reshuffled trade routes and left a growing share of the tanker fleet engaged in long, inefficient voyages. Daily hire for the largest crude carriers has climbed to unprecedented heights, turning an oil cri 10 Oct Pemex Would Need Nearly $110 Billion to Meet Output Targets Pemex would need investment of nearly $110 billion to lift its output to the levels set by Mexico's production targets. The estimate points to the gap between the company's current production and what the national targets demand of it. It comes as a recent assessment weighs Mexico's energy insecurit 10 Oct Energy Aspects: Crude Futures Underprice Mideast Risk Crude oil futures are failing to reflect conditions in the physical market, according to Amrita Sen, founder and director of market intelligence at Energy Aspects.
