Intel: Republicans dial up pressure on Saudis to end oil price war with Russia
link

Republicans are throwing their weight behind the Donald Trump administration’s push to get Saudi Arabia to end its oil price war with Russia, which has increasingly squeezed American energy companies as the coronavirus runs rampant throughout the United States.
The top Republican on the House Foreign Affairs Committee, Rep. Mike McCaul of Texas, penned a letter to Undersecretary of State for Energy Keith Krach encouraging him to keep up pressure on Riyadh to scale back its oil output.
“I commend [Secretary of State Mike Pompeo] for emphasizing the need for global economic stability on his recent call with Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman Al Saud, and I encourage you to keep up this pressure until we see changes,” wrote McCaul. “The Trump administration stood in solidarity with Saudi Arabia amid Iran’s attack on Saudi oil facilities last September, which was a deliberate attempt to disrupt the global economy. I ask that you remind Saudi Arabia of that support as they consider next steps for OPEC and for the Group of 20, which it currently chairs.”
Why it matters: President Trump participated in a Saudi-chaired G-20 teleconference today. Prior to the meeting, Pompeo pushed Crown Prince Mohammed on the oil price war Tuesday.
“The secretary stressed that as a leader of the G-20 and an important energy leader, Saudi Arabia has a real opportunity to rise to the occasion and reassure global energy and financial markets when the world faces serious economic uncertainty,” said State Department spokeswoman Morgan Ortagus.
Saudi Aramco announced earlier this month that it would ramp up oil production to 12.3 million barrels per day in April — a record amount — after Russia refused to cut production. Moscow has also vowed to increase its output.
McCaul noted that the price war has caused crude oil prices to spiral to below $30 per barrel.
“The ongoing COVID-19 outbreak is presenting enough challenges for the United States without the added effects of rock-bottom oil prices and excess supply,” wrote McCaul. “The shale industry in my home state of Texas and throughout the rest of the US has fought hard to turn America into a leading oil and gas producer and to increase our energy independence. This position and their hard work could be a thing of the past if production is not cut by Saudi-led OPEC and Russia.”
Saudi Arabia has not publicly commented on the Trump administration’s request to curb its oil output, and the Saudi Embassy in Washington did not respond to Al-Monitor’s request for comment
Major oil companies cut spending in 2020 by 20% after falling prices
The world's largest oil and gas companies are slashing spending this year after the collapse in oil prices caused by falling demand due to the Corona virus and a price war between the largest exporters Saudi Arabia and Russia.
The cuts, already announced by five major oil companies, including Saudi Aramco and Royal Dutch Shell, together account for a 20% drop in their initial spending plans.
Norwegian Ecinor said it will cut capital spending by about two billion dollars, while Chevron said it will cut its capital spending this year by four billion dollars.
Other companies, such as US giant Exxon Mobil and Britain's BP, say they will cut capital spending but have not yet released figures.
Brazilian oil company Petrobras said it will cut production in the short term, defer payment of dividends and reduce its investment plan for 2020, among other measures aimed at reducing costs in the face of the Corona virus pandemic.
The debt of Chevron, Total, BP, Exxon Mobil and Royal Dutch Shell combined reached $ 231 billion at the end of 2019, which is just under $ 235 billion recorded in 2016 when oil prices also fell to less than $ 30 a barrel.
Sources: Shell and other oil companies want less Saudi crude in April
Sources in the sector said that several European oil refineries and in the Nordic countries will receive less quantities of crude from Saudi Arabia in April, indicating the scarcity of demand for additional supplies offered by the Kingdom as part of its efforts to boost its market share.
Saudi Arabia, the world's largest oil exporter, plans to boost its exports sharply after the collapse of a three-year agreement between the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other producers led by Russia to cut supplies earlier in the month.
But with demand collapsing as well due to government restrictions aimed at containing the outbreak of the Corona virus, oil companies are reducing the operating rate of refineries and are not in a rush to take additional Saudi barrels, the sources said.
A trade source, speaking on the condition of anonymity, discussed the matter with oil companies: "There is definitely a reduction in the operating rates of refineries ... so it is difficult to allocate a lot."
And two sources in the sector said that Shell is among the international oil companies that will take less Saudi crude. A source said that
companies are seeking to reduce their shares of Saudi crude by up to 25 percent. Shell declined to comment.
Rocket Attack Targets Baghdad’s Green Zone
Two rockets hit the fortified Green Zone in central Baghdad on Thursday.
The Green Zone in the capital city is home to Iraqi government buildings, parliament, and several foreign embassies.
The two projectiles struck near the Baghdad Operations Command, which coordinates Iraq's police and military forces, the country’s army said in a statement.
The Operations Command building is a few hundred meters far from the US embassy which, according to a security source speaking to AFP, was the original target of the attack.
The rockets were launched from the al-Nahda area of Baghdad, according to the statement.

Vietnamese currency more stable than other regional peers
The đồng is expected to stabilise around the current level. Photo cafef
HÀ NỘI — Though the unofficial value of the Vietnamese đồng has now fallen about 3 per cent against the US dollar, the rate is still a smaller depreciation than that seen by most of Việt Nam’s regional peers and is expected to stabilise around that level, management fund Vinacapital reported.
The Indonesian rupiah, Thai baht and Malaysian ringgit slid 19, 11 and 9 per cent, respectively. Though the Philippine peso inched down 1 per cent, its relative stability is attributable to the after-effects of a 34 per cent depreciation in the Philippine peso over the five years up to late-2018.
According to Vinacapital analysts, foreign investors aggressively sold Vietnamese stocks last week, prompting concerns among some locals that the State Bank of Việt Nam (SBV) may restrict the flow of US dollars out of the country, which was one of the factors that prompted last week’s đồng depreciation. However, the SBV is not contemplating any restrictions on foreign investors from repatriating dollars, and that the SBV has more than enough reserves to comfortably meet redemption.
“Việt Nam’s US$83 billion of foreign currency reserves are much larger than the country’s cumulative $30 billion of foreign indirect investment (FII) in-flows, and a high proportion of those FII are inflows were into illiquid private equity and/or large strategic stakes in publicly listed companies – both of which cannot be sold quickly. In short, the SBV has more than enough reserves to meet any short-term panic redemptions by foreign investors,” the analysts explained.
It noted that foreign investors sold around $260 million worth of stocks last week, but unlike past global “risk-off” episodes when investors sold Vietnamese stocks but kept the funds in the country such as at the end of 2018, this time some investors are repatriating dollars back to their home countries in response to the current global shortage.
Furthermore, since Việt Nam has not been a major recipient of the “hot money” inflows that destabilised ASEAN tiger economies in the past (for example, the proportion of Vietnamese Government bonds owned by foreign investors is very low, unlike in Indonesia), the SBV is well-positioned to meet any potential short-term panic redemptions by foreign investors.
Vinacapital believed the USD-VNĐ exchange rate should stabilise around the current level as the US Federal Reserve took concrete actions to stop the surge in the USD/DXY index last week while the SBV does not need to impose capital controls and the đồng is supported by high bank deposit interest rates and 33 per cent per GDP of forex reserves.
Việt Nam’s total reserves now reach up to about $83 billion, or four months’ worth of imports, but this figure understates the degree of support that Việt Nam’s FX reserves afford the currency because Việt Nam’s imports and exports are both around 100 per cent of GDP, which depresses the above-mentioned four months’ figure.
“For that reason, we’d like to highlight that Việt Nam’s current 32 per cent per GDP worth of FX reserves has nearly reached the 33 per cent per GDP level of FX reserves that China had accumulated just before the Yuan embarked on a 7-year appreciation that ultimately lifted its value by about 25 per cent,” Vinacapital noted
The country’s trade surplus reached nearly $3 billion as of mid-March, including a surplus of nearly $900 million in the first two weeks of this month, driven by 7 per cent year-on-year export growth.
Besides, Việt Nam’s deposit rates are attractive compared to regional peers and are becoming relatively even more attractive as regional peers’ central banks slash policy interest rates, the analysts said.

3-26-2020 Newshound Guru Pimpy ...people are asking about the rate...to me it just makes sense that they come out with $1.34...I also made an argument why they could start off at the reinstated rate $3.22. They have nothing right now. They need more purchasing power so that they can turn around and buy a ton of things. This is another reason why I think they're going to come out with a managed rate not a free float...I hate to say this but most likely be reinstated at $3.22 rate but not for very long...a rate that high will not allow them to develop economically. They would not be able to compete on the open trade market with such a high rate. They'll most likely get back down to around $1.34...but don't be surprised if they don't come out with the $1.34 first.
