sherpa Posted March 7 Posted March 7 (edited) 5 hours ago, BillStime said: If you're truly a thought leader in energy markets, you wouldn't fall for the right-wing Keystone Pipeline hoax. The Keystone pipeline wasn't projected to be operational until 2023. The U.S. continued to receive oil from Canada through railways, other pipelines and the original Keystone pipeline. Bottom line - this pipeline had no impact on gas prices. As the world reopened - the supply could not keep pace with the immediate surge in demand. You’re just pissed that Biden is KILlING it and your guy conned the F out of you. Keep whining. You really have no idea. The president does not control oil prices or the energy markets. What he can do, and did, it set the environment that energy companies have to operate in. It takes years to bring a project on line to the point of production, and when the environment is impacted by the statements and promises that Biden made, it would have been foolish and a violation of fiduciary responsibility to not "adjust" to the environment he created. It wasn't just drilling on federal lands, which he has since reneged on, refining and transportation was also "adjusted" making both more expensive and less attractive to produce. By the way, your stupid claim that anybody, let alone a man I have despised for decades is "my guy" is as ignorant as a host of other stupid things you repeatedly claim. Not have I ever claimed to be a "thought leader in energy markets." I watch and I pay attention. I have listened to countless interviews from decision makers in that industry, as it had a huge impact on the industry my career was dependent on. I paid close attention, including being aware of futures contracts that were reported on financial statements of various energy dependent companies and the prices they paid for those hedges. You post remarkably stupid things to the point that if you were a medical situation you would be taken off life support. Foolishly accusatory and ignorant, wasting your time and others with zero effect. Edited March 7 by sherpa 1 1 1

sherpa Posted March 7 Posted March 7 I am not going to quote an idiotic post from Billsy as they take up far too much space, with all the useless cartoons and other items that are not self authored. But....the claim that I am "angry" is idiotic. Not angry at all. Biden is a dysfunctional idiot. Always has been. A back burner Democrat that has no record of achievement beyond his totally false claims of his record of achievement, which even Democrats know are false. His energy policies have waivered and are strictly political. Impossible to deny that.

The Frankish Reich Posted March 7 Posted March 7 2 hours ago, US Egg said: This thread is misleading: Imagine that: production ramps up, in part due to expectations of high crude prices. Increased production and continuing low crude prices causes drillers to pause on expensive new oil drilling offshore projects. It's almost like there's a market in crude oil. 1

I stated many times that I would never vote for him. Never have. I don't like the man. No matter how many times you and that other guy make these stupid suggestions, you embarrass yourselves.

Increased production and continuing low crude prices causes drillers to pause on expensive new oil drilling offshore projects. It's almost like there's a market in crude oil. Drilling is not being limited by the oil companies choosing, rather by Bidens ruling. Their are mandates to allow development of oil and natural gas. The need for energy is growing, Biden is restricting future access to resources in federal waters with the fewest lease sales in history It puts the U.S. in a position of relying on foreign sources for future energy needs. 1

sherpa Posted March 9 Posted March 9 32 minutes ago, BillStime said: Look at the chart. Look at production levels between Nov 2020 and March 2021. I wonder what happened during that election to post inauguration period. Then I wonder why it has steadily gone up since the covid recovery and political damage resulting from rapid increases in crude costs and the Russian invasion. Actually, I don't wonder, and neither does anyone with a scintilla of knowledge of the energy markets and political policy. 1
sherpa Posted March 9 Posted March 9 The entire Biden energy argument is designed for people who know nothing about his policy variances, or contradictory postures. He campaigned on ending drilling. Many videos of these statements. He gets in office and overturns many pro energy policies by executive action. Then........true to form from a career politician who has never held a real job, he gets his ass in a wringer when Russia invades the Ukraine and energy prices advance disproportionately to demand and polls start telling him people don't really like his energy stance. Then....he goes to Saudi Arabia and pleas to them to raise production. They do the opposite, so he asks them not to announce their planned production decreases until after the mid term elections. Then......when nothing is working so far, he goes to the US energy industry and pleas for them to increase drilling, the exact thing he campaigned against, and put policies in effect to decrease, and tells them if they don't increase drilling he is going to charge them an excise tax on profits made because the cost has increased so much, and blames it all on them. Now, after OPEC cuts production, he brags that the US production is higher. This man is an economic/business illiterate, if not lunatic. I guess some people support this kind of ignorant policy insanity that makes it completely unpredictable to plan for long range projects. 1
