Heavy hitting U.S. shale producers lower production guidance 10% or more for ‘16 U.S. shale producers are beginning to announce production cuts as the global glut is keeping prices lower for longer. There is a marked difference as companies begin to report their 2016 guidance from this time last year when prices were still in the $40-$50 range.
