Points to take home, IMHO:

(1) CL production in the US last week was 5.1 mmbbl/d, the lowest I can remember seeing, during the week when the CL price was the highest ever.
I am curious whether there will be a "crash" in domestic production if CL prices go down substantially - folks are evidently pumping wells that were idle pretty hard and are already seeing production fall off - at some point those wells will have to rest again?

(2) Why is distallate demand (fuel oil) so high (up 7%) if natural gas is so much cheaper?

(3) The US imported at least 12 mmbbl/d last week of CL and product - will that continue given the fall in VLCC rates that have been noted?
