  • Oil above $90: Growth Outlook Brightens for EOG Resources amid Middle East Tensions
    April 9, 2026, 1:01 PM EDT. West Texas Intermediate crude oil prices have surpassed $95 per barrel due to rising tensions in the Middle East, boosting prospects for leading oil producer EOG Resources Inc.

The U.S. Energy Information Administration anticipates continued elevated prices, supporting strong cash flow generation for EOG and its shareholders. Similarly, ConocoPhillips and Exxon Mobil, with extensive upstream operations in low-cost drilling regions, stand to gain.
