World oil supply and demand -The IEA - Reports that oil supply and demand are evenly matched at just under 87mb/d for Q3 and Q4 2010.
They further predict world demand demand to increase to 88mb/d by Q3 and Q4 2011.
US inventory runs about 4% above this time last year - but its worth noting that the US is one of the slower economies to recover.
Even on these figures with US above the average the outlook looks sufficiently supportive of current oil prices near term (taking the world picture into account) - and with the prospect of a little firming up through 2011.
For BNK Q3 is all but over with no bad patches for oil. Ergo I expect a good Q3 report in mid november (although still too early I feel to see the effects of their greatly increased spending).
