Kerm/ saw this in your Korner re: forward-think & oil pricing.

Thanks for the effort you and the rest of the Korner Krew put into posting Kurrent Konsiderations.

Re: below......... I recognize the benchmark for Cdn.Oils is West Texas Intermediate pricing as posted for Cushing, Oklahoma and it's often a dollar or more higher than U.K Brent benchmark. Lately there seems to be a bit of a convergence in pricing though. Just over a week ago WTI has a $14.81us/barrel price while Brent was at $14.33us.

At the beginning of Feb. WTI was approx. $17us while Brent was approx. $15us.

As has been recently discussed on thread, suspect it won't be long before some of the Cdn. number-cruchers begin to make some lower changes to their current estimates for oil pricing for the rest of this year...........
