TWC - weekend
"Black Gold- If anyone is still up I am awarding myself two bonus points for guessing Saudi motivation. They have announced that they will essentially do what ever it takes in the way of production cuts. WTI is over 53, according to zerohedge a 15 month high for this time of year. The best part is that so far it is noting but talk while they pump at record levels. I am wondering if they have already made up their potential lost income. Anyway, it is a long time until the January cuts start. But for now they are for sure the pied piper of crude.

Thanks TWC and good post also the prior weekend one. (I didn't read much on the weekend and worked on my spreadsheets).
I have a question for you.
When we see a price (Brent or WTI), is this the price the Saudis would get
or
is there another market say cash where they privately negotiate prices on a delivery by delivery basis?
If yes to the latter, are the contract sales price average posted somewhere?
