Ecocharger + 1,486 DL December 4 4 hours ago, Spuds McKenzie said: The Green New Deal isn’t even a real thing. The BS propaganda thread that would not die. Here we are in Dec 2024 - How’s the US oil production doing? …Breaking world records. How many federal leases did Biden approve? …more than right wing radical white collar criminal insurrectionist Donald. How will reality TV actor Donald’s idiotic campaign slogan of cutting oil prices by 40% impact the US oil industry?…it would devastate profits, new exploration and will lead to massive industry layoffs. How’s full time golfer Donald’s campaign slogan of Drill Baby Drill gonna go? …it’s not. It’s already happening under a Democratic President. The markets determine prices, not the White House.

Soon you won't have anybody to write or think for you. Production "cuts" are not reductions if the output goes up... I guess that is too much for you to handle. "Spot premiums for Russia's Far East ESPO Blend crude oil shipments to China rose to their highest since the Ukraine war broke out in 2022 on robust winter demand and as prices for rival grades from Iran firmed, three trade sources said on Tuesday. ESPO Blend cargoes loading in January traded at premiums of about $1.30 to $1.50 per barrel against ICE Brent on delivered ex-ship (DES) China basis, the sources told Reuters, rising from premiums of $1 per barrel for cargoes loading in November and December." 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I like how the author noted oil has been in decline for 20 years. It is fair, looking at future expectations of the source of CO2. You seem to have a problem with the real world, bud. Wars do happen and that affects demand for commodities. Welcome to the real world. The new nominee for energy secretary is a realist. https://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-General/Chris-Wrights-Nomination-A-Challenge-to-Conventional-Climate-Wisdom.html "Wright’s approach mirrors a school of thought that challenges the economic feasibility of extreme climate measures. This group may argue that measures like carbon taxes and green energy subsidies disproportionately burden economies and lower-income populations without guaranteed benefits." "Lastly, some challenge the notion that proposed solutions will be effective or equitable. They argue that the costs and disruptions associated with transitioning to renewable energy or implementing climate policies might outweigh the benefits, particularly when the scale of global emissions reductions needed seems daunting and the efforts of developed nations might be offset by rising emissions in developing economies." " Top Three CO2 Emitters. Robert Rapier China, the U.S., and India are the world’s top three carbon emitters. U.S. emissions since 1990 have declined, especially since the early days of the fracking boom about 20 years ago. Over the past decade, U.S. emissions have fallen at an average annual rate of 0.9%. China’s emissions, on the other hand, have grown rapidly. Since 1990, China’s emissions have increased by a factor of five. In the process, China surpassed the U.S. as the world’s largest carbon emitter." 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ecocharger + 1,486 DL December 4 8 hours ago, TailingsPond said: I'm glad you are backing a realist. You should read articles before posting links. You are a climate denier, he is not. "Wright acknowledges that carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas contributing to atmospheric warming." "Chris Wright’s views highlight the tension between environmental goals and economic considerations. While critics may label him a skeptic, his acknowledgment of carbon dioxide’s role in global warming distinguishes him from outright deniers." I am not a climate denier, the people who rely on incomplete climate models are the climate deniers. It is necessary to get the science right before spouting off. 1 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't form any independent thoughts. You promoted Chris Wright’s views - not me. Do you understand that you just posted a link supporting him and his "realist" views? You can deny the OPEC production cuts but just stop referencing the authors who discuss them. Either they are stupid for mentioning cuts or you are stupid for listening to them. Irina Slav and Tsvetana Paraskova reference production cuts so no more using their words. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slippery slope cutting back when so many other countries are increasing production. They will lose the battle of wills. In 10 years OPEC+ will probably be insignificant as too many other NON-OPEC producers are ramping up production. It's happening now, and in 3 years time Argentina and Guyana, Suriname, Alaska will be picking up any cuts that OPEC keeps trying to enforce, many are still cheating so??

I just want people here to accept the reality that oil production is currently being artificially reduced. It is market manipulation, oil is fundamentally worth even less than its current low market price. The resident failed economist continues to deny that reality. You seem to accept that they are cutting back. In other news Tesla jumped another 3% in one day. Market cap now 1.16T. They are making close to 400 billion a day recently. Resident morons will say Tesla is suffering. Yet funny, I don't have to wait 3 years to see their success. Not an "any year now" thing.

Your other post mentioned a 3 year time frame. Oil is in decline and you like that because it saves on fuel costs. The oil industry does not like it. The largest oil company in the world (Saudi Aramco) has a valuation of 1.98T. At the rate Tesla is going they will surpass them within a year or two. The second largest oil company (Exxon) is worth about half of Tesla at 706B. People just need to follow the money. The money is going electric. Even Berkshire Hathway of Warren Buffett fame has less money than Tesla. Edited December 5 by TailingsPond Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is a type of logic about which I would prefer not to comment. It is less than they could produce, therefore a cut. You don't have to take my word for it. News sites everywhere discuss the reality of the production curtailments. If you still do not agree, then do not reference the Oilprice writers who discuss the OPEC cuts regularly. You can't claim they are stupid and a valid source of information at the same time. Heck just don't reference the site at all as clearly the editors disagree with your "analysis."
