Key Takeaways
• Growth outlook for US supply weighted down by shifting production strategy from Mideastproducers along with revising outlooks for global energy consumption
• Slower growth = fewer growing independent producers
• Tomorrow’s market leaders are posturing today – capturing low cost resources, locking in hedges and services contracts, swapping acreage, planning facilities for sustained low-cost ‘manufacturing’ style development
• Wellhead economics of various basins really don’t look that different – Best of the Best and Also Rans
• Transportation commitments and concentration of assets and infrastructure will differentiate which producers can grow production and gain market share and which producers must hope for event driven volatility giving way to higher prices

Additional Topics to Be Covered at BTU Analytics’ Oil & Gas Conference
• Recovery Timing & Price Stability. Can OPEC cuts re-balance the market in time for Saudi 2018 IPO?
• Permian Gas, Oil, NGL Production. Do breakevens matter anymore or are there other constraints that will dictate production growth?
• Northeast Pipelines. Which pipes will be on time? Which will end up in pipeline purgatory?
• SCOOP and STACK. Is it really as good as everybody is saying?
• US Gas Market Outlook. Henry Hub - Starved for gas or awash in supply?
