  • The latest Baker Hughes rig count data is due for release at 18:00BST. Last week saw an unexpected fall of 4 in gas rigs to 153 while oil rigs continued to rise with an increase of 1 to 595. The increasing rig counts since mid 2020 have slowly resulted in higher US production with a rise in lower 48 dry gas production from 94bcf a year ago to approximately 97bcf in recent weeks. US EIA shows oil production is now above 12mbbpd and has only ever had one period above these levels in late 2019 and early 2020.
  • The ICE and Nymex commitment of traders reports will be released after the close today at 18:30BST and 15:30EST. High prices and US recession concerns have resulted in a reduction in both crude and product market managed money net longs in the last couple of weeks.
