Chesapeake (CHK) announces that its job cuts are completely unrelated to its merger with Southwestern (SWN). The company is also cutting back on production owing to a slump in natural gas prices.
Oil prices remain elevated with U.S. oil production 1.4% higher than the record levels of a year ago. Prices of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) are approximately 7% higher than they were a year ago.
