Shares of Whiting Petroleum Corp. (NYSE:WLL), declined -5.87% to $14.91, during its last trading session, hitting its lowest level, as oil’s weeks-long slump accelerated sharply on Monday with prices tumbling as much as 6 percent to fresh 6-1/2-year lows as a renewed dive in the Chinese equities market sent global financial markets into a tailspin, according to Reuters.

Oil’s biggest one-day drop in nearly two months suggested that worst-case fears over the economic outlook in China, the world’s second-largest oil consumer, have eclipsed immediate signs of persistent oversupply as the main motivator. Reuters Reports
