Collet, please change the GOA Leadership

There are a lot of petty, narrow-minded folks in GOA/GOM leadership. Collet, please have a massive change in the senior leaders. This group is absolutely a club of protect your own and forget about right and wrong types. My favorite experience is... — read more 

Gretchen...laid off.

Follows Zoe and others. Collette is now President and EVP GoA. Wael is disciplined and consistent on cuts...gotta give him that.

Thoughts on OPEC Meeting on May 3rd

OPEC has moved up their meeting for May 3rd. Thoughts on whether they can reach a consensus on production cuts or are we going to see a full blown battle for market share?

Eerie silence on job cuts….

Project Unleash

Looks like contracts and procurement are getting a resizing? Is this worldwide? Next comes Speed 26 to run you over.

He is only capable of one thing.
