  1. Isaias shuts in a quarter of Gulf oil output | Upstream Oil and Gas Daily Dose — 2026-10-08

    Episode 22

    Show notes

    The Marine Minerals Administration reports that, based on operator reports submitted October 7, about 25 percent of Gulf of America oil production and about 16 percent of gas production had been shut in, with personnel evacuated from eight manned platforms; Bloomberg reports the system has since strengthened into Hurricane Isaias with landfall expected late Friday or early Saturday east of the main Louisiana and Texas assets. Shell's October 7 update note guides third-quarter Upstream production to a range that brackets the prior quarter's actual output, with confirmed results due October 29. EPA says a second oil and gas reconsideration proposal is days away, while Valaris, W&T Offshore and Pine Cliff Energy disclosed contract awards, a reserve-based lending conversion and an expanded Alberta drilling program.

  2. Chevron agrees to sell Hess Midstream stake | Upstream Oil and Gas Daily Dose — 2026-10-07

    Episode 21

    Show notes

    Chevron agreed to sell its stakes in Hess Midstream and in DJ Basin crude oil midstream assets as part of a broader restructuring of its Bakken midstream agreements, taking about 3.7 billion dollars of Hess Midstream debt off its balance sheet at closing in exchange for 200 million dollars in cash and revised contracts, according to BOE Report's account of the companies' statements. The Marine Minerals Administration estimates roughly nine percent of Gulf of America oil production was shut in as of a Tuesday snapshot from one operator's reports ahead of Invest 92L. Vaalco completed its Gabon Phase 3 program and reported an initial stabilized rate of about 2,000 gross barrels of oil per day from its final development well.

    TotalEnergies said on September 26 that it and partners SOCAR and XRG took a final investment decision for full-field development of the Absheron gas and condensate field in the Caspian Sea, targeting six billion cubic meters of gas a year and 47,000 barrels per day of condensate from 2029. Tullow Oil's half-year results report first-half working-interest production of 43,700 barrels of oil equivalent per day and a signed rig contract for up to ten wells offshore Ghana. Preliminary Kpler data reported by Reuters put September Middle East crude exports at 12.8 million barrels per day.

  7. BP explored then exited Devon Eagle Ford deal | Upstream Oil and Gas Daily Dose — 2026-09-26

    Episode 12

    Show notes

    Reuters reporting cited by OilPrice says BP entered the data room for Devon Energy's roughly 90,000-net-acre Eagle Ford business after it opened in late August, and one source said BP ultimately walked away; no transaction has been announced. Horizon Petroleum reports preliminary cleanup-phase flowback of 5.5 million cubic feet per day of gas at its Lachowice-7 well in southern Poland, cautioning the rate is not representative of stabilized production. Vantris Energy says it won two offshore transportation and installation work orders from Petronas Carigali and PTTEP units worth about 441.8 million dollars combined.

  10. Saudi East-West pipeline restarts | Upstream Oil and Gas Daily Dose — 2026-09-23

    Episode 9

    Show notes

    Reuters, citing people briefed on the matter, reports Saudi Arabia has restarted its East-West pipeline at a low rate, with Aramco working back toward roughly 4 million barrels per day of capacity and a cargo scheduled to load at Yanbu; OilPrice.com reports very large crude carrier costs have pushed into uncharted territory, so the restart alone has not cleared oil-logistics stress. Valeura Energy and operator PTTEP announced a final investment decision on a first-phase gas development at Bussabong in the Gulf of Thailand, with first gas targeted around the end of 2028. Also covered: the North Sea Transition Taskforce's call to bring forward UK oil tax reform, a Petrobras, Shell and Strohm composite flowline qualification with a pre-salt pilot planned for early 2027, Eco Atlantic's completed South African farm-down to Navitas, and Bounty Oil and Gas's planned entry into Liberia's untested Harper Basin fan play.

  11. Libya's Sharara halves as Yanbu restart is signalled | Upstream Oil and Gas Daily Dose — 2026-09-22

    Episode 8

    Show notes

    Libya's Sharara field is pumping about 127,000 barrels a day after an armed group shut the pipeline to the Zawiya export terminal, according to people cited by Bloomberg, while Rigzone and OilPrice report traders saying that Saudi Aramco has informally signalled a restart of loadings at Yanbu, shut since a September 10 drone attack on the East-West pipeline. Valeura Energy and operator PTTEP took a final investment decision on the first phase of the Bussabong gas field in the Gulf of Thailand, and Guyana's government is reviewing the field development plan for Longtail, proposed as the Stabroek Block's first gas-centred development.

    Episode 7

    Show notes

    Saudi Aramco has told European refining customers they will be allocated no crude next month under long-term agreements while it works to restore its damaged East-West pipeline, Bloomberg reported via Energy Connects, even as US Central Command says Hormuz flows are at a six-month high. Qatar's energy minister said the first North Field East production train now slips to the first half of 2027. Bloomberg also reports that this week's Trump-Xi meeting could bring a commitment to revive US LNG purchases worth about six billion dollars a year.

  13. Saudi pipeline outage strains crude routes | Upstream Oil and Gas Daily Dose — 2026-09-19

    Episode 6

    Show notes

    Rigzone and OilPrice report oil eased Friday as Saudi Arabia's workaround through Sohar and shuttle shipping partly replaced volumes lost when attacks shut the East-West pipeline and loadings stopped at Yanbu, while Strait of Hormuz traffic remains severely disrupted. OilPrice reports French President Macron will convene G7 countries on emergency stocks as EIA data show U.S. retail diesel at six dollars and twenty-nine cents a gallon for the week of September fourteenth. Guyana's natural resources minister says output has passed nine hundred thousand barrels per day and the government is shifting focus to gas monetisation, and the White House confirmed a Russia and Iran sanctions law signed September eighteenth.

    Continental Resources says it signed a memorandum of understanding with PDVSA to operate and develop the Ayacucho 2 block in Venezuela's Orinoco Oil Belt, with a long-term participation contract still to be negotiated. Reuters, cited by OilPrice, reports three pumping stations were damaged on Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline, more than earlier assessments found. Guyana's natural resources minister told the Department of Public Information that oil output already exceeds nine hundred thousand barrels per day as the government turns to gas monetisation.
