Happened with crude oil in 2020. If you’re still going to produce it but have no where to store it you need to pay people to receive a shipment of 10,000 barrels.

So why don't they put that towards their own capital in terms of expanding retention capacity?
The traders have no place to store it. No method to retain, unless you pay rent, which puts pressure on your trade.
So why are they bitching about this or is it simply like a niche interest piece? Like why should anybody care about this?
It's fun to quote. Much less fun to explain that it's the normal process.
