Hi all. Longtime lurker, first-time poster.
I'm looking for someone to help me understand the process of padlocking a well (due to low prices), and then getting them back up to speed when (of if) those prices rebound. It seems that the cornucopians' final rallying point is to insist U.S. tight production can just seamlessly return to business as soon as price rebounds. You know, "econ 101, bro." ... That kind of thing. Anyhow, I remember seeing pushback on this rather overconfident assumption, but I can't find it. So I'd like to appeal to those much smarter than me.
Isn't it true that once a company shutters production, there's enormous logistical, legal and economic roadblocks to returning to BAU for that company? Huge thanks in advance.
