OSTI ID:6322193
This article summarizes the 1988's North American oil market. Some of the highlights are: average rig count for the year should range between 1,010 and 1,020 units; Canadian survey shows E and P expenditures could be up over 20%; drilling in Canada will also be spurred by government incentives expiring in '88; Pemex will double Mexican activity due to a marked E and P budget increase; and last half U.S. wells/footage should post good gains if prices settle around $15.
