What’s Next For Oil: Interview With Former DOE Chief Of Staff<\/a><\/h3>\n
<\/section>\n

\n

In this week’s\u00a0MacroVoices<\/a> podcast, Erik Townsend and Joe McMonigle, former chief of staff at the US Department of Energy, discuss the state of the global energy market, and OPEC\u2019s rapidly diminishing ability to control oil prices.\u00a0McMonigle believes investors will be hearing more jawboning from the Saudis, OPEC’s de-facto leader, over the next two weeks as they try to marshal support for extending the cartel’s production-cut agreement past a March 2018 deadline.<\/p>\n

Of course, anyone who\u2019s been paying attention knows the cuts have done little to alleviate supply imbalances that have weighed on oil prices for years. In a report <\/a>published by the International Energy Agency earlier this month, the organization notes that non-compliance among OPEC members, and non-members who also agreed to the cuts those non-members who also agreed to cut oil production, increased again in July. According to the IEA data, non-compliance among the cartel\u2019s members rose to 25 percent in July, the highest level since the agreement was signed in January. Meanwhile, noncompliance for non-members rose to 33%.<\/p>\n

Given that oil prices have fallen since OPEC members and non-members first agreed on the cuts last November, the Saudi’s might have difficulty convincing their peers that the cuts are having an impact, other than allowing US shale producers to flourish.<\/p>\n

OPEC will meet Nov. 30 in Vienna.<\/p>\n

Erik<\/strong>: Joining me now as this week\u2019s featured interview guest is former US Department of Energy Chief of Staff Joe McMonigle, who now heads up the energy research team at Hedgeye.\u00a0Joe, I think everybody understands that the key question in today\u2019s oil market is whether the rebalancing that OPEC production cuts were supposed to achieve is really happening or if the supply glut is actually still continuing. So let\u2019s start with your high-level view first. Is OPEC effectively managing supply or are they really just managing market sentiment?<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
