Oil and Gas by the Numbers 05/27/2011

Good afternoon everyone.  Well today it looks like we are starting to move forward again in our rig numbers.  The US total made a jump of 17 over the week.  Crude oil seems to be hovering at $100.19/barrel at the moment and natural gas is making a nice upswing $4.51 an increase of 3.56% so far today.  As we head into the holiday weekend that traditionally marks summer gasoline price increases, we are actually looking at some big changes in price on a down trend.

Good Afternoon!  Looks like we might be back online hopefully to stay.  As I passed by the computer screen the numbers look like they are dropping a bit.  WTI crude is currently at $98.42/barrel.  Along with the dip in the price of crude there is a slight dip in the number of rigs in the US.
