Natural Energy Cycles, Human Arrogance and Economic Consequences / Politics / Energy Resources

By: Brian_Bloom

Below is a quote from an article on “tight oil” production that appeared at http://www.econbrowser.com/archives/2012/12/future_producti.html . It captures the overall thrust of the article itself and also of the comments that flowed from readers.

“The 2005 to 2011 rate of decline in the GNE [Gross Net Exports of oil]/CNI [China and India consumption of oil] ratio, if extrapolated, suggests that China and India would be consuming 100% of Global Net Exports of oil in the year 2030, which is 18 years from now. Of course, I don’t think that will actually happen, and there is already some suggestion of a slowing demand from the Chindia region or at least a decline in the rate of increase in consumption, but the trend through 2011 is pretty clear, and the rate of decline in the GNE/CNI ratio accelerated from 2008 to 2011, versus 2005 to 2008.”

The Next Big Boom in Energy Isn't What You Think / Commodities / Energy Resources

By: Money_Morning

Dr. Kent Moors writes: As the ongoing debate between renewables and fossil fuels continues, there is a wrong-headed presumption that there will only be one clear victor.

But recent trends in the wind and solar age tell us that this conclusion just isn't so.

The truth is both types of energy will be required to work in tandem in order to achieve our energy goals in the future.

UK's Green Energy And Nuclear Rout / Politics / Energy Resources

By: Andrew_McKillop

GOUGE THE SHEEPLE
in Europe, among very strong national competition in clean energy price gouging, the U.K. government’s effort to expand renewable energy and nuclear power are now forecast as raising household electricity bills by 54% by 2020, according to Bloomberg New Energy Finance. In the UK case, as in France (but in few other countries) "renewable-based and low carbon electricity" also includes nuclear power. This is now an openly admitted high cost option, and the UK is so de-industrialized or uninterested in building nuclear plant that it cannot build reactors itself. As a direct result the UK government is locked into a process of promising France's government handout-dependent nuclear industry tariffs as high as 140 GBP (about $215) per 1000 kWh of power produced by French-built "new build" reactors in Britain. If these reactors are ever built in Britain.

The Pangaea Resource Mountain / Commodities / Energy Resources

By: Andrew_McKillop

The supercontinent Pangaea was as above all vast, and its formation then movement have left vast resources of all hydrocarbons, often located more than 2000 metres below current land surfaces and ocean floors. Plate tectonics helps us understand the processes.

One example of how different the world was about 220 million years ago, was India's status of an island separated from the Asian continent by the vast Tethys Sea. When Pangaea broke apart, India began moving north-east away from the future Africa, taking about 170 million years before it collided with Asia.

Keep Oil And Gas Prices High - Tax Fracking / Commodities / Energy Resources

By: Andrew_McKillop

Incredible as it can seem to many, freshly re-elected Barack Obama is giving serious thought and attention to banning, or limiting - or taxing - oil and gas extraction by hydraulic fracturing. For natural gas, in the US and soon worldwide, "fracking" has had and will have revolutionary effects on gas supply and gas prices.The drilling process has brought U.S. energy independence within reach - with the important rider that for oil, this also needs $100 a barrel prices - but fracking now faces renewed scrutiny from the Obama administration, and an uncertain future in several states.

World Energy Outlook 2012: High Priced Energy / Commodities / Energy Resources

By: Andrew_McKillop

THE IEA MOVES ON
The IEA in late November published the 2012 edition of its flagship annual study, the World Energy Outlook, but with now-admitted "treading of a fine line", between its mandate, and its recent and present policy interests, fantasies, or foibles. The Agency (IEA) describes itself, in each issue of the WEO, as an "autonomous agency established in November 1974" with its its primary mandate, which it says it continues to pursue, being two-fold: to promote oil supply security amongst its now-28 member countries through "collective response to physical disruptions in oil supply", and also to provide "authoritative research and analysis on ways to ensure reliable, affordable and clean energy" for its exclusively OECD member countries.

By: Money_Morning

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDr. Kent Moors writes: You might have seen yesterday's headline in the Wall Street Journal: "U.S. Redraws World Oil Map."

As the article explains, U.S. oil production is now on pace to surpass Saudi Arabia by 2020. This would make the United States world's largest oil producer. We're already the second-largest natural gas producer, according to 2010 EIA estimates.

Investor Opportunity After Hurrican Sandy in Energy Logistics / Companies / Energy Resources

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleDr. Kent Moors writes: Since the storm last week, I've seen a recurring, disturbing bit of advice surface on those cable news investment shows.

The pundits are hard at work prognosticating on what is likely to spike in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. They are peddling a belief that this natural disaster will produce shortages - and that those shortages can be exploited for a short-term windfall.

Syria Regime Change, False Flag Energy / Politics / Energy Resources

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleFor the Libya war and regime change things were easy: Libya is a big supplier of oil and gas to Europe. Quickly replacing the Gaddafi regime was necessary, despite "the Colonel" being recycled back into grace with a Condoleeza Rice, Tony Blair and Silvio Berlusconi smile and handshake, and replaced by a Shariah-proclaiming shaky government and its fundamentalist militias, who celebrated Sept 11th 2012 in a special way, by killing the US ambassador. But hydrocarbon supplies are vital!

The accident risk stress tests on European nuclear reactors, like the economic, financial and environmental stress tests on European biodiesel fuel production are delivering bad news for defenders and promoters of high cost vanity tech "solutions" to Europe's mostly imaginary energy problems. Upstream, these new hits are another blow to Europe's now creaky climate-energy policy and program package of 2008 - underlining yet again that this package is now badly in need of total reform or simply shredding.

Big Energy Got It Wrong / Commodities / Energy Resources

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleENERGY FUTURE? NO FUTURE
Exxon Mobil CEO Rex Tillerson claims he always applies the Boy Scout dictum "Be Prepared" and many critics of Tillerson like to poke fun at his Boy Scout background and way of soing things, which served him well until recently. Upper levels of Exxon management started taking notice of him during the little-known southern-48 oil boom of the early 1990s. As head of Exxon's highly lucrative exploration and production — E&P upstream — operations in the Texas-Oklahoma Belt he never put a foot wrong, nor when he moved for a short while to head E&P at Exxon Neftegas in Russia.

The Energy Crisis That Wasn't / Commodities / Energy Resources

By: Andrew_McKillop

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleThe real energy prospect is the world now faces a problem of newly found, or newly developed, and ever increasing energy resources and supplies - not a crisis of energy scarcity.

The turnaround has been lightning rapid, in at most 5 to 7 years, and has wrongfooted many analysts, most politicians, and the world's "historic major" energy corporations, as well as the green movement and "ecology politicians" who still claim energy supplies are rapidly declining and we face an inexorable energy crisis - very like their residual attempts to peddle global warming apocalypse. In fact the prospect of us facing energy penury, shortage and scarcity has been turned upside down.

Best Financial Markets Analysis ArticleOil and gas reserves around the world are growing scarcer by the minute, and people are looking to their governments for answers. However, leaders' responses are often motivated more by the desire to boost approval ratings than by the need to find real, long-term supply solutions.

Casey Research's Rick Rule, Marin Katusa and Louis James sat down with The Energy Report to discuss what it means to participate in a politicized market and how politics affect their buy and sell decisions.

While U.S.-based companies are forced to wade through red tape and legal challenges, relatively lax regulation in emerging economies created stiff competition. In this exclusive interview with The Energy Report, Coxe explains how investors should position themselves as China and India rise to superpower status.

Energy Markets Being Driven by Fear / Commodities / Energy Resources

By: OilPrice_Com

Crude oil demand in the United States is down to its lowest level since the onset of the global economic recession. A lackluster economic recovery, coupled with cautious consumer sentiment, is keeping demand for petroleum products suppressed. Nevertheless, lingering concerns over geopolitical tensions with Iran has prompted some governments to raise the possibility of releasing strategic petroleum reserves. Fundamentally, it seems, markets are well supplied, though it may be emotional factors driving certain aspects of the energy market.

"Electrical power, in the short span of two centuries, has become an indispensible part of modern day life. Our work, leisure, healthcare, economy, and livelihood depend on a constant supply of electrical power. Even a temporary stoppage of power can lead to relative chaos, monetary setbacks, and possible loss of life. Our cities live on electricity and without the customary supply from the power grid, pandemonium would break loose." Dieselserviceandsupply.com
