INTERACTIVE: US oil rig count drops amid spending-cut commitment

摘要

HOUSTON (ICIS)--The US oil rig count declined again in the week ended 19 July as drillers remain committed to reduced spending this year, according to the weekly drilling rigs report released on Friday by oilfield services firm Baker Hughes. Some oil majors are spending more on exploration and production this year, but most smaller, independent drillers have cut back, leading to a steady downtrend in rig count.
