I laugh when people say big oil is making tons of money. The oil company takes all the risk and makes $.10 a gallon while the state and federal government steals $.50 a gallon. But they are okay with that

I think the Saudis have a very good idea of what they are doing. They can produce at a lower cost and do not require the revenue in the short term. Other producers will have serious issues with their need for revenue and will likely have their control of the resource disrupted. Think Venezula, Russia, Iran. Of course it will also help our military/ industrial complex.

You are absolutely correct. Just was watching the money channel while having lunch and it costs the Saudis $10/barrel to get oil out of the ground. US and Canada were around $40 and Brazil was the most expensive at $70/barrel.

To some degree, yes, but only for the short term (decade or so), depending on whose projections you like.

The real killer is Saudi coming in under OPEC to the European market this week.

not so sure about that ask the people in residents of Nordheim, Texas, a town of 300 people South Texas call for billions of gallons of toxic sludge to be dumped in the plastic-lined pits left open to the air, where fracking waste is allowed to evaporate. What’s left behind is a viscous goop that’s mixed with soil and eventually buried on-site. the EPA and others have found that the fumes contain chemicals known to be hazardous to human health, including volatile organic compounds like benzene. But, because oil and gas waste is exempted from federal hazardous waste regulations, most states don’t require monitoring waste pit air emissions. It’s impossible to know whether chemicals are drifting into the air at levels that could affect human health. plenty of risk .

yeah there was a woman living on a Ranch close to these open AIR Pits
that has been there on the Ranch her family established in 1890
that is Very concerned. I would think these fumes could easily contaminate
beef cows and make them Worthless. The Fact that oil and Gas have exemption status on WASTE emissions
i think is terribly WRONG. So what... we have to
wait until kids are born with 3 arms or 3 legs before there is a wake up Call?
