That $300 billion just accounts for drilled wells that haven't been completed, haven't been turned online, or haven't yet paid out their initial investment. The industry as a whole started pivoting in 2018 from a pure oil production growth (no matter how much debt you had to take on and how negative your cash flow was) to a profit driven industry like a typical business, and COVID just accelerated this transition exponentially. Here is an article saying half the wells in the US are profitable at $40 oil: https://www.spglobal.com/marketintelligence/en/news-insights/latest-news-headlines/half-of-producing-shale-oil-wells-are-profitable-at-40-bbl-analyst-says-60035427 --- Hello world! ...
