2022 Capex Trends: MEG, CNRL Expect Strong Crude Prices, Differentials To Continue


MEG Energy Corp.’s top executive is increasingly bullish on crude prices and the Western Canadian Select (WCS)-West Texas Intermediate (WTI) differentials.

“It’s interesting. Obviously, there’s a lot of focus on where WTI today is … but the really interesting one is where do we see differentials. I mean today, differentials are trading in the U.S. Gulf Coast for WCS or AWB in that $2 to $3 range, which is showing the tremendous demand — worldwide demand — for this product,” Derek Evans, president and CEO, told analysts on a conference call to discuss Q4 and year-end 2021 results.
