Abstract
Abstract Crude oil and natural gas production is examined to investigate the cross‐country causal relationship and interconnectedness of these markets, within the North American context. A vast infrastructure network, consisting of pipelines and railroads that connect the US and Canadian markets, with virtually all of Canada's crude oil and natural gas exports flowing south. The study is undertaken within the context of the recent US shale energy revolution based on technological advancements in drilling and hydraulic fracturing. Unique to this study is the use of production data, rather than the archetypal energy prices, to investigate the presence of bilateral relationships. Monthly, country level data on crude oil and natural gas production, over the period 2002 through 2015, is utilised. The results of standard unit root tests indicate that the production series are non‐stationary in levels, while cointegration test indicate that the markets are integrated. A bidirectional relationship is found for the crude oil market. In contrast, a unidirectional relationship is observed in the gas market – US natural gas production causes Canadian natural gas production.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
