Key quotes
"Crude building in storage tanks at record levels.
Global storage capacity to be filled in 3 to 4 weeks.
Once filled, will be nowhere to put any further oil output.
Producers will be forced to shut enough supply to match the demand loss - a cut of around 18 to 20 million barrels a day by mid-May.
Likely to trigger further price volatility - price spikes to the downside until supply equals demand.
Add on the demand bottoming out, likely 4-8 weeks away."
