Energy stocks opened the session higher on escalating tensions in the Red Sea, as an oil tanker was seized off the coast of Oman and diverted by armed Houthi rebels this morning, which boosted oil prices. Broader equities were set to rise, though the 8:30 AM ET release of December CPI data showed inflation remains persistent, as consumer prices rose 0.3%, pushing the annual rate to +3.4%.
Oil prices rose on Thursday after an oil tanker was boarded by an armed group in Oman, raising the prospect of escalating conflict in the Middle East. The United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations Authority received a report on Thursday that a vessel about 50 nautical miles east of Oman's coast was boarded by four to five armed individuals. "Slowing demand, unrest in the Middle East and muted price reaction have producers, consumers, and market participants alike feeling paranoid about oil prices," Barclays said on Thursday as the bank lowered its 2024 Brent forecast by $8 to $85 a barrel.
Natural gas futures are lower by ~1% ahead of weekly inventory data. Analysts expect a draw of 119 bcf.
Chesapeake Energy and Southwestern Energy have entered into an all-stock merger agreement transaction valued at $7.4 billion, or $6.69 per share, based on Chesapeake's closing price on Jan. 10, 2024, the companies said on Jan. 11.
The deal would create the U.S.’ largest natural gas producer, but, it is almost certain to face intense scrutiny as a wave of consolidations, largely oil-focused, has already raised the hackles of some Congressional Democrats.
The deal unites Chesapeake and Southwestern’s Appalachia and Haynesville portfolios into a pro forma company with an average net production of approximately 7.9 Bcfe/d. The company would have over 5,000 gross locations and 15 years of inventory.
