8While the disagreement is narrower -- between $ 66-44/bbl -- over how prices will be in Q-3, 2017, it widens to $80-37 by Q-2, 2018.
8The $ 37/bbl bet is made by well known analyst I. Schmidt of Hamburger Sparkasse AG while the $ 80 projection is made by F. Klumpp from Landesbank Baden-Wuerttemberg.
