Saudi Arabia for the long squeeze. Curtail new fracking operations with low prices, just to ensure market share stays stable.

And keeping prices low just happens to hurt ISIS and Russia, too, which is a bonus.

EDIT: And now, the Russian economy is going to hell in a handbasket.

Combination of sanctions due to the Ukraine and the Saudi squeeze.
