Talisman Energy and Magnum Hunter Energy Lead New Era of Oil Exploration

This week's spike in oil prices has been largely attributed to
refining cutbacks, and not improving demand. With economies
sputtering in the US, EU and China, oil demand is expected to fall.
The sudden downturn could squeeze margins for several North
American oil exploration companies, many of which boosted
production earlier this year. The Paragon Report examines investing
opportunities in the Oil & Gas Sector and provides equity

Oil prices turned sharply higher this week after the EIA
reported a surprise drop in US oil inventories. The figures don't
necessarily signal higher crude demand, however, as the drop in
inventory was partly due to refineries cutting back on run. The EIA
says oil stocks fell 4.7 million barrels last week; a 700,000
increase was expected. Gasoline and distillate supplies also
fell.
Global oil demand remains diminished, at best. The Paris-based
International Energy agency reduced its forecast for global demand
this year by about 60,000 barrels a day to an average of 89.5
million barrels a day. On Wednesday, Goldman Sachs said that
financial stress in Europe will slow energy demand growth.

OPEC sharply revised down its forecast for world oil demand for
this year and expected consumption would remain weak in 2012,
citing waning economic growth in key industrialized nations and a
weak US driving season.
While oil demand may be on the downturn, North American oil
production is skyrocketing. Oil output from shale prospects in
unconventional sources from North Dakota to Texas could reach 1.5
million to 2 million barrels-per-day (bpd) in the coming five to
seven years, twice as much as the 700,000 bpd currently produced in
these places, Hess Corp executives told an IHS Herold energy
conference.
Meanwhile in Canada, figures compiled by the Canadian
Association of Petroleum Producers (CAPP) show that oil sands
production is expected to double by 2020, to 3 million barrels a
day, while conventional production slips slightly. That will give
an estimated total production of 4.2 million barrels by the end of
the decade.
