The session low of $17.80 per barrel was the lowest level for front month crude since it hit an intraday low of $17.29 per barrel last November. The last 9 sessions have seen February crude futures plunge by $3.51 per barrel with an unusually mild winter slicing demand and swelling oil and products stockpiles, which were already far higher than normal as air travel nose-dived and a recession set in after the September 11th attacks. Already down 30% lower since the September attacks, prices have dropped further after the API report showed total crude and product inventories rising to their highest level since August 1999. Many doubt OPEC's ability to maintain its modest level of quota discipline after it and rival exporters agreed to cut almost 2 million bpd from the worlds supplies. Traders are concerned that if January supply figures showed that producers have not cut back as much as they promised, confidence in the agreement could quickly disintegrate. Heating oil futures for February delivery on the NYMEX fell $0.0176 to $0.5145 per gallon. February gasoline futures on the NYMEX lost $0.0224 to $0.5361 per gallon. In London, Brent crude oil futures for March delivery were down $0.62 to $18.41 per barrel. ------------------------------------------------------------- ??????????????????????

When the oil field comes on stream in 2004, BHP hopes to double current local oil production of 100,000 bpd over its life cycle which he estimates at 17 years. Minimum reserves are around 300 million barrels. BHP plans to invest $500 million over the next few years to develop the Greater Angostura field off the northeast coast. ------------------------------------------------------------- Energy Releases Opt in Email has 9 times the response of regular mail and costs less than the postage.

The unions favor the bill because of the large number of jobs it will create for their workers. The Senate majority leader has said the chamber, which is controlled by Democrats, will take up energy legislation later this month. Democrats favor another plan to triple the amount renewable power in use and outlaw the use of the additive MTBE in gasoline within 4 years. Some Democratic senators have vowed to prevent the bill from passing. One senator has suggested the use parliamentary procedures to prevent the Senate from even considering ANWR exploration. The presidents of the Teamsters Union and United Brotherhood of Carpenters are pushing senate leaders to pass the presidents bill in the first week of February, and have criticized the Senate for politicizing the energy legislation. A 10-year old study by the API concluded that ANWR drilling could create up to 700,000 new jobs. However, critics of drilling in the refuge put the number at a much lower 46,000 jobs and called the API study bogus. Foreign oil imports accounts for 57% of the nations supply. The 16 billion barrels of oil the Arctic refuge may hold would be enough crude to replace Iraqi exports for 70 years, according to Republicans. The energy bill passed by the Republican-controlled House would also give $33.5 billion in tax breaks and incentives to oil and coal companies. ------------------------------------------------------------- ??GET REAL about energy risk management with KWI In today's fast moving energy markets you need to be able to manage risk in real time.

Suncor's report led off what is expected to be the industry's weakest Canadian quarter in about two years. Fourth quarter profits were C$26 million, or C$0.09 per share, falling from C$111 million, or C$0.46 per share a year earlier. Cash flow fell 38% to C$133 million, from C$216 million in the 4th quarter of 2000. Revenues of C$883 million, were down 5% from C$927 million. Suncor is known for its oil sands mining and synthetic crude processing operation in Alberta. The company completed its 4-year, C$3.4 billion Project Millennium, which almost doubled production to 225,000 bpd at the end of last year. Suncor says that with Project Millennium completed, it can now focus on getting back to basics in 2002. Results were also affected by a 36% drop in refining margins, which erased net earnings at its Sunoco gasoline station division. Last week Suncor warned of a dip in profit because of cost overruns associated with its oil sand expansion. Oil sands production averaged 153,000 bpd in the 4th quarter, up from 110,000 a year ago. The company expects average first-quarter output of about 200,000 bpd and full-year production of 210,000 bpd. Suncor also expects cash operating costs for 2002 of C$10 to C$10.50 per barrel, it said. For 2001, net earnings rose 3% to C$388 million, or C$1.63 per share, from C$377 million, or C$1.58 per share, due to an increase in production, and higher natural gas prices and retail margins earlier in the year. ------------------------------------------------------------- IPE-Brent Crude futures (US $/barrel) Month ?First ?High ?Low ??Sett ?Chg MAR 02 19.25 19.38 18.23 18.40 -0.63 APR 02 19.40 19.50 18.44 18.58 -0.68 MAY 02 18.81 19.60 18.60 18.81 -0.58 JUN 02 19.60 19.60 18.63 18.67 -0.74 JUL 02 19.57 19.57 18.90 19.06 -0.40 AUG 02 19.60 19.60 19.23 19.23 -0.28 SEP 02 00.00 00.00 00.00 00.00 +0.00 OCT 02 00.00 00.00 00.00 00.00 +0.00 NOV 02 00.00 00.00 00.00 00.00 +0.00 DEC 02 00.00 00.00 00.00 00.00 +0.00 ------------------------------------------------------------- NYMEX-Mont Belvieu Propane Gas Futures($ / Gallon) Month ? ?High ??Low ??Last ?
