Drilling Rig Count Stable, or Pretty Close To It

A Reuters article states that there will probably not be a rebound in demand for drilling rigs in the near future.  This is due to a large number of wells that have been drilled but not fracked or completed, and a large number of wells that could be refracked.  Natural Gas Intel has an article saying pretty much the same thing, but looking at it from a different direction.

Looks like the roughnecks who still have their jobs have a pretty decent chance of finishing out the year with a job.
