Oil Rigs: "Not dead yet!"

A few comments from Steven Kopits of Princeton Energy Advisors LLC on June 23, 2017:

• Total US oil rigs were up 11 to 756

• Horizontal oil rigs were up a whopping 12 to 648

• Goodness knows the underlying dynamics, but apparently the rig operators have not received the oil price crash memo.
