    And it crashed today. The fundamentals are still wrong. Oil won't be back for some time to come.

    Problem is if you watch the market, the volume of excess oil has no bearing on the actual price. Saudi Arabia makes a reference to possibly capping or cutting output and the price immediately spikes. Then Iran says they won't cooperate in an output cap and the price dives. The amount of surplus hasn't actually changed.

    I just checked and it's $49.52 for WTI. How is that a crash?

    Every customer I talk to is ramping up and hiring. A recent RigData article noted there will be an estimated 30% increase in rig count in the next year. Revenue is up for me, especially in the last month

    We've been busy the past couple of months as well. Lots of drill pipe moving around again. Rigs starting to pop up. Lots of frac jobs going on. It's looking better and better.
     
    Lepton1 Thanks this.
