Barclays on U.S. Integrated Oil Stocks: Revising EPS on Updated Macroeconomic Assumptions

Analyst, Paul Y. Cheng, said, "We have adjusted our commodity price deck and margin assumptions for 2012 reflecting the 1Q12 quarter-to-date market conditions. Thus far, we have seen stronger than expected crude prices while gas prices have been weaker than expected."

Cheng boosts 2012 WTI price assumption from $94.25 to $98.25 and raises Brent price assumption from $103.75 to $108.75.
