So that’s why our gas prices are up. đ€
Good thing oil isnât a global commodity.
Western MSM cherry picking againâŠwhy no news on Vladâs massive missile strikes the past four days? From Kiev to Lvov, Kherson stone cold dead- no electricity for days, SBU HQ in Kiev whacked, NATO Polish General â expiredââŠ.
Reporting news goes both ways, â omissionsâ of Vladâs pounding of Ukraine doesnât fit senile Joeâs narrative? âŠ. Time to fess up, everyone knows Vlad is winning, slowly but surely.
Read yesterday that Russia now has to import gasoline from Belarus...................
Well the Russians did kick out everyone that knew/ran everything about their Oil Industry ,D’oh
1 Million Ukies without Power.
Zeepers only post articles about Ruzzia.
No articles about what is happening on ground in Zeeperland.
Thatâs because News in Zeeperland is not good for Ukies.
Why hasnât Tucker Carlson condemned the Moscow terror attack?
Sudden Russian Breakthrough In Bohdanivka Achieved l Russians Are Advancing On Multiple Fronts
Tell Tucker Carlson to condemn the Moscow terror attack.
“Read yesterday that Russia now has to import gasoline from Belarus.”
And sometime soon mysterious accidents will occur at the refineries in Belarus.
Russians just shot down one of their own fighter planes over Sevastopol Crimea.
“Russians just shot down one of their own fighter planes over Sevastopol Crimea.”
I actually feel bad for the pilot. Poor bastard gets sent to a war zone and gets shot down and maybe killed by his own forces.
Tell Russia to stop shooting down their own fighter jets. Not a good look.
What Su-35 doink?
What Sevastopol air defense doink?
đâïž Sevastopol, Russian aircraft fell into the sea!
Only oil matters and oil is measured by numbers, not feelings.
Russia’s refining capacity is about 5.6 million barrels/day. That is throughput. Crude comes in, petroleum products (like gasoline, diesel, kerosene (jet fuel), asphalt) go out.
Russia’s domestic consumption is 3.6 million barrels/day. BE AWARE WHEN READING ABOUT OIL that in a general sense, Russia denotes oil by tonnes. So tonns/year, not barrels/day — and this matters because not all oil is created equal. Some is denser and heavier than other blends.
Reuters calculations do not match mine. They say 14% of refining is offline. I have looked at how they did this and it is pretty clear they are declaring any refinery touched to be 100% offline and more important, that it has remained offline since that day. These are drones. They have tiny payloads. They cannot do enough damage to generate months of 100% shut down. My own estimate is about 4% offline on average for the last 2 months.
This is 224K barrels/day. This is just too small a number to be remotely significant.
For anyone who actually cares about accurate oil information about Russia or anywhere else, this huge spreadsheet has been compiled annually for about 70 years by BP. They have offloaded it to an “Energy Institute” that they largely run, or are the primary data source for.
https://www.energyinst.org/statistical-review/resources-and-data-downloads
The spreadsheet is large, because every single country is individually profiled for oil, gas, coal, nuclear, solar . . . everything, both production and consumption.
This is where numbers come from. Not journalism majors who know nothing.
Thatâs going to really pi$$ off the Biden reselection campaign!
