RE:Missing ProfitOne thing that may help to mitigate this lower production level could be the higher average realized price of crude in the quarter. IF they achieve their target opex of $28 per bbl this quarter and their average realization of crude price is say ~$108 per bbl then their operating profit should be in the area of $88m or $0.28 per basic share (or annualized at $1.12 per share).....we'll see.
