IEA chief economist Fatih Birol expressed his own concerns: "We see and hear about energy investments being delayed . This is a major worry and could lead to a supply crunch and much higher oil prices than we've seen before." |

Short term blessing for long term? I think it is a short blessing for a major energy crisis to come. High oil price is ironically good in the sense that people start to think of other energy alternatives. Otherwise people will be forever be complacenet thinking oil will forever flow out from the oil wells. One should understand if there is no investment in the energy industry or into other alternative energy, we will have a oil crisis. |

I just type the first 2 paragraghs Busines Times 14 November, 2008 - IEA Warns of Impending Energy Crunch Risk of new energy crisis if investment pullback continues It will require more than a trillion dollars in annual investments to find new fossil fuels for the next two decades to avoid an energy crisis, the International Energy Agency warned. The warning from the agency comes at a time when major oil companies are pulling back investments during one of the most severe economic downturns in a generation. The other potential crisis I see is food

Hope you read the IEA report in today's business times. This global credit crisis is really a perfect set up for that potential oil crisis because when companies and countries scale back their investments in the energy industry due to the global economic crisis, it is going to be too late when the global economy recover. Time is running out.... | ||||

Ha ha, those CO stored in the reseved tank in the refinery were purchased much earlier, with higher prices. The refinery unable to peg the current price with those made earlier to make a loss. However, in time to come, it the avg prices meet the reduction in retail price, then most likely they will do it. | ||||

Below 55/- Our pump price has not even shed even 1/3 it px, now trading at about S$1.70cents after discount, room for further discount....Ya. Prices have now shed about 60 percent since scaling historic highs above 147 dollars in July on mounting evidence of slowing global economic growth and energy demand. http://sg.news.yahoo.com/afp/20081112/tts-commodities-energy-oil-price-c1b2fc3.html On London's InterContinental Exchange (ICE), Brent North Sea crude for delivery in December plunged to 54.92 dollars per barrel -- a level last seen on January 30, 2007. Brent later stood at 55.94 dollar, down 3.14 dollars from Monday. At the same time, on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX), light sweet crude for December tumbled to 58.32 dollars, the lowest level since March 21, 2007. The contract was later down 2.91 dollars at 59.50 dollars. Crude oil prices on Tuesday extended earlier losses after Wall Street fell in opening trade, with investor sentiment unsettled by fears about a collapse of General Motors and more poor corporate news amid the credit crisis. European stock markets also closed sharply lower on Tuesday as news of more corporate problems highlighted concerns about the spreading damage from the global credit crunch to the underlying world economy. |

This came as global crude oil prices continued their downward slide. ExxonMobil led the way by reducing prices at noon, followed by SPC and Caltex at 1pm. Premium 95 grade now stands at S$1.746 a litre, while the price of diesel is reduced to S$1.503. Petrol prices have been adjusted across all service stations for the three brands. This is the 11th consecutive drop in pump prices since July. . |

Drop in oil price is due to the slower global demand. In this situation, while it is good for consumers, the drop in oil price isn't a good sign for the global economy. |

Captive markets for public transport and utilities companies - no one can do anything now with the support of a price adjustment mechanism...it will go up in good times and hard to come down in bad times.... What is the meaning to the man in the street even if these companies make tonnes of monies ? how many commoners can own the shares ? In my view, government should rethink for these companies ...where is the competition ? Can it be a stat board function to ensure correct pricing to cover operating expenses and reward good administrator in accordance with civil servants ? Degree of gratitude by its citizens on these two companies is the CEO's KPIs.. 2 cents worth.........

Last night I was watching Channel News Asia and there was a programme already discussing about the food problem facing some parts of the world. But right now attention is focussed elsewhere.

There was a really good article some time ago written by the chairman of a major oil company here on the problem of energy demand in the world going forward. If this problem is underestimated, the consequences would be tremendous..... | ||||
