Bear Stearns May 10---"rising inventory levels reported last week indicate the start of our projected inventory build through May as Middle East exports prior to the Apr 1st production cuts arrive in the U.S. Also contributions to the inv build is an increase in NS imports as producers have taken advantage of the WTI Brent spread...The most significant inv ramp up is expected to occur from mid-May into the of the month.The first week of June continues to show a decline in imports as the impact of ME cuts are reflected in lower imports..In this environment of building inventories and weak margins, we may see a temp retreat in commodity prices.." I still think crude is heading towards 16ish

<<Iraq wants to pump even more oil (up to their limit). This should keep reserves from dropping too fast>>

Iraq has already pushed its oil sector to the brink in order to maximize oil production and exports. Iraq needs a rapid infusion of critical oil production equipment in order to sustain or increase oil production.
