In this episode we step away from the energy industry's market dynamics and get a better glimpse of a niche part of the oil sector. Tony's guest today is Dirk Heseman. Dirk is a Well Plug and Abandonment Engineer currently working in the oil fields of Asia Pacific.

In this conversation, we get a glimpse into the business of closing and plugging off-shore oil wells. The engineering of this endeavour is both calculated and simplistic by many means. But with a push to clamp down on the fossil fuel energy, many of these wells will be removed from the production funnel. Does that mean a boom in services specific to abandonment?

In this episode of OGU, Tony reconnects with Rory Johnston of Commodity Context to talk about some of the bigger headlines out of the oil sector the past few weeks. Not only has the Biden Administration reconnected with Venezuela to tap their crude supply, but the sector has also seen a pair of major merger and acquisition deals hit the market. This is all taking place with is a large supply-side tightness in the energy space. Rory shares his thoughts and analysis of these major headlines.

Tony connects with Robert Mullin, General Partner at Marathon Resource Advisor. The two discuss the escalations in the Middle East and their potential effects on the oil market. Robert also shares some thoughts on the intense moves in the crack spread and why the potential for an "echo boom" in the oil markets could present itself in the coming year.

Robert Meyer is a seasoned energy trader with LPS Capital. Through his experience in the sector, he's see the high and the lows of the oil markets. With the recent big moves in the price of a barrel of oil, Rob provides some insights into where the opportunities currently live. He also adds some thoughts on supply which listeners may find concerning.

Tony connects with his old friend, Doomberg, in this latest episode of OGU. TG and Doomberg hash out the recent outperformance of the oil market compared to the general markets this week. What the two see is a line of resistance coming up in oil, but a move past that would have the central banks concerned about another rise in inflation. The two talk about the SPR head fake and how inflationary forces could be coming back with the help of the energy market.

Tony Greer connect with Judd Arnold of Lake Cornelia Research Management, a firm which manages in excess of $100 million of outside capital. Judd talks about his unique approach to the energy, oil and natural gas trade, one which is quite different from that of Tony. The discussion first focuses on upside potential of oil/gas equities weighted to the S&P currently and where the upside potential of that ratio can go when/if value becomes a norm. Judd talks about off shore energy production in-depth and why he sees refiners more of a trade opportunity than an investment.
