Better international/demand data and promise for strict quota adherence by Russia

Demand signals continue to trend positively, with China’s total oil demand is nearly back to the pre-COVID levels of 13.4MM. U.S. real-time

mobility data indicated that driving activity has also recovered much of the April losses. Markets were also affected by greater than expected

Lower 48 shut-ins announced during earnings season. Jet-fuel market remains extremely weak thought travel started to tick higher off historic

lows.

Fighting in Libya intensified

The EIA announced a smaller-than-expected natural gas storage build. EQT confirmed that they had shut-in a large percentage of production

due to pricing, with management noting that sales were being deferred to take advantage of an expected significant improvement in price in the

coming months. LNG cancellations continued. Temperatures across the southern states expected to increase.
