On this week’s Drilling Deep podcast, host John Kingston kicks things off by looking at the unexpected call by the Biden administration for OPEC to put more oil on the market. The request for more supply may be coming just as the need for it is starting to fade. 

Also on the podcast, the guest of the week is Eric Wanberg, the head of inventory management at Taulia.
