00:00:00.090 --> 00:00:03.630
Barring any further storms here you believe that the oil and gas

00:00:03.630 --> 00:00:07.260
supply chain will be back on within two weeks. The industry is

00:00:07.260 --> 00:00:11.460
very well prepared for hurricanes. But the most significant

00:00:11.460 --> 00:00:14.040
impact of course is the human toll that's taking place in

00:00:14.040 --> 00:00:16.730
Houston. We've got a lot of friends and family there so you

00:00:16.740 --> 00:00:19.310
know our hearts and prayers are with them there as we've seen on

00:00:19.320 --> 00:00:23.070
the on the news but from a financial standpoint the industry is

00:00:23.070 --> 00:00:25.170
well-prepared for hurricanes. They've gone through this several

00:00:25.170 --> 00:00:28.740
times. So as they go through their systems checks and safety

00:00:28.740 --> 00:00:32.670
checks looking at the offshore production and the refiners we

00:00:32.670 --> 00:00:35.160
think it will be about 14 days or so once the water recedes that

00:00:35.160 --> 00:00:37.260
they can get back on line and pumping and maybe not a hundred

00:00:37.260 --> 00:00:41.370
percent but certainly a large part of it in terms of domestic

00:00:41.370 --> 00:00:45.030
industry resilience. What's been the biggest change since

00:00:45.360 --> 00:00:45.840
Katrina .

00:00:46.860 --> 00:00:50.730
Well I think one of the biggest changes since Katrina is we've

00:00:50.730 --> 00:00:54.180
got more refining in the Gulf so there is a bigger impact and

00:00:54.180 --> 00:00:57.890
we're seeing that in the gasoline prices. You know that and

00:00:57.930 --> 00:01:00.780
we're starting to see some spot shortages around that'll have

00:01:00.780 --> 00:01:04.700
the impact of reducing inventory in the U.S. because of refining

00:01:04.750 --> 00:01:08.400
or off line. It'll bump up crude inventory in the U.S. But

00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.580
overall I think the impact is going to be reducing inventory

00:01:11.580 --> 00:01:16.320
worldwide for oil liquids. I know that your investment horizon

00:01:16.500 --> 00:01:19.530
is far longer. So we are talking to you about the short term

00:01:19.530 --> 00:01:22.980
impact having you see opportunity particularly in the energy

00:01:22.980 --> 00:01:26.190
space you describe this myopia that we have about oil at the

00:01:26.190 --> 00:01:28.860
moment and the sense that we're continually looking at

00:01:28.860 --> 00:01:31.500
inventories rather than the big picture here. Do you think

00:01:31.500 --> 00:01:34.650
we've taken it too far in terms of stretching back capacity and

00:01:34.710 --> 00:01:39.120
perhaps underestimating future demand potential. Absolutely .

00:01:39.120 --> 00:01:42.030
There's a couple of things that are happening. One is the

00:01:42.030 --> 00:01:45.900
overall supply and demand where we've seen the inventory drop

00:01:45.900 --> 00:01:49.020
since the beginning of the year. But longer term the low price

00:01:49.020 --> 00:01:53.610
of oil is is no longer incentivizing future production or

00:01:53.910 --> 00:01:58.830
investment for a few feature production. You've got two of the

00:01:58.830 --> 00:02:02.490
biggest population bases in the world China and India two point

00:02:02.490 --> 00:02:06.060
six billion people and their GDP per capita continues to rise

00:02:06.060 --> 00:02:11.080
and with it. So does the income spent on things like energy .

00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:15.090
Well we also see China developing their one One Belt One Road

00:02:15.120 --> 00:02:18.870
which is really the modern day silk road and there's going to be

00:02:18.870 --> 00:02:22.290
a lot of infrastructure spent on that. We're seeing that as the

00:02:23.130 --> 00:02:26.330
impact with copper steel continues to rise. We think that

00:02:26.340 --> 00:02:29.360
continues. We also think it's going to impact oil prices .
