Who cares how many extra million of barrels are added. Unless it in the billions of extra barrel, it's not adding to any "glut".
Last year hwen I check, the world consumes about 110M barrel a day. The glut was an oversupply of about 1.8M a day. That's less than 2%.
How many days of that 1.8M extra glut would be consume by the world in one day? 55 days?
Don't know about you but if I have to save up 3 months' worth of food and all it take is one day to consume them, I didn't save very much at all.

I know right, comparing STO to MRM.
I also own STO. Bought in a bit too early as it turned out. But that's alright. Can't win them all.
How many times has STO did a cap raising? Twice.
How much does STO owes? About $4B?
How much does MRM need to raise to stay solvent? Before the latest deal with its banker, it was about $170M.
Now that the bankers's debt have been reduced by $45M [once the sales goes thru], they are are fine with the deferment to Sept. 2019, we're still worried about MRM's demise?
That's not to say another curve ball won't come about - such as OPEC getting back to its price wars - but if we can predict these movements and timing... well, we can't predict them.
Anyway, my speculations and blah blah aside, two experienced OSV operators putting some $20M into MRM might suggest that they see something of value and are not gambling.
Maybe don't take my words, take theirs. Or we know better than those operators?
