Uncertainty in Libya Keeps Pressure on Oil Prices - Industry Report Featuring Chesapeake Energy and Petrohawk Energy

HONG KONG, March 4 /PRNewswire/ - Today, www.WorldStreetFundamentals.com released its industry report highlighting Chesapeake Energy Corporation (NYSE:CHK) and Petrohawk Energy Corporation (NYSE:HK). As the Middle Eastern situation continues to press concerns, it brings the potential for destabilizing a geo-strategically important region. Investors from around the world are invited to view fundamental and technical analysis at www.WorldStreetFundamentals.com/Reports.php.

Libya is a key OPEC member and accounts for about 2% of global oil supplies. Oil production from Egypt remains a smaller contributor, producing a little bit less than 1% of the world's total supply. Together, the Suez-Mediterranean pipeline and the canal itself account for three million barrels a day out of a total of about 88 million barrels worldwide, representing 3.5% of world production.

Fundamentals of the U.S. economy are expected over the long-term to continue recovery. Many investors are using weakness resulting from the Libya unrest as an opportunity to own quality names that enjoy strong earnings momentum and economic leverage.
