RE:RE:I would Hedge 1/2 production at $70+ oilYa, I know, but you don't seems to understand.... it's like buying insurance, I'm assuming if I understand correctly. Why do you buy insurance for your home?
Oil price most likely to continue up, but if it Crashes, many companies (Shareholders) in this sector won't survive the next crash, IMHO.
IMHO, this is what's holding back share prices. The FEAR of oil price crash. We are pushing $70+ oil, and even a tiny pull back in oil price sends shares dropping like a rock.
All just my opinion/view/thinking.

If oil prices continue higher, with Debt Risk eliminatated with the hedge, free to increase Dividends, CapEx, production.
If oil prices crash, cut back production and expenses and sit back and enjoy the Profits from the Hedge.
