Green Car Congress

FEBRUARY 28, 2019

Global oil and gas companies are increasingly facing an uphill battle as global warming policies are taking their toll. Most analysts and market watchers are focusing on peak oil demand scenarios, but the reality could be much darker. by Cyril Widdershoven for Oilprice.com.

However, the new forecast represents a slowing of future oil sands production growth compared to the predictions of last year’s forecast. According to CAPP’s 2014 Crude Oil Forecast, Markets and Transportation , total Canadian crude oil production will increase to 6.4 CAPP forecast. Click to enlarge. million barrels per day.

The impact of rising oil prices on North American light tight oil (LTO) production is said to be a “Catch 22”, the title of Joseph Heller’s popular 1961 novel set in WWII. Too many analysts continue to believe drilling and service has the same problem with rising oil prices. by David Yager for Oilprice.com.

Study finds that dry-feed gasification for coal-to-liquids is more efficient, lower-emitting and cheaper than slurry-feed; CCS cost-effective for reduction of CO2

Comparison of coal consumption and CO 2 emissions for co-production and separate production of liquids and power. Even with CCS, the liquid product costs are comparable to recent crude oil prices. For a liquids-only configuration, CCS is a cheaper option when the CO 2 price exceeds $12/tonne. Click to enlarge.

The True Cause of Recessions: OIL. I was asked to speak about the economic impact of our oil dependency and so I began researching this topic to see if I could draw some insightful conclusions. All of the recessions listed above were caused by oil except the early 2000 recession that was caused by September 11th, 2001.

Americans still love their air-polluting and smog-producing gas guzzlers. Most people do know and feel that if we drive electric cars we could reduce the consumption of oil and could reduce pollution. In comparison, in 2018 US and China had a total combined sales of 1.2 Some are still not yet sure to make a plunge in purchase.

This approach, ICCT says, enables an equitable comparison of airline fuel efficiency, regardless of business model, through the use of primary fuel burn data and an inclusive metric for transport service—a combination of mobility, measured by revenue passenger miles (RPM), and access, measured by departures (or the flight frequency).
