Busness Times 2 December, 2008 - Prepare to ride out low oil price Oil and gas sector firms must be ready to innovate and invest even if demand remains flat Industry leaders say they must not lose sight of the fact that once they recover from the fact that once they recover from this crisis, there will still be insufficient oil in the world to cope wih surging global demand. Mr Westwood is a published commentor on the energy industries and will be giving a presentation at this year's OSEA2008 conference in Singaopore. According to him, "The biggest challenge facing the world is the limit of oil supplies. Over the next decade this, in my view, this will be become an issue of greater significance than global terrorism. For the next 5 years oil supplies may be OK, but depletion is happening and by about 2011- 13 global production will cease rising - just to maintain exising levels we need to discover and develop the equivalent of a new Aaudi Arabia every 3 years!" The Internationa Enrgy Agenmcy (IEA) expects world energy demand to grow by 1.6% on average between 2006 - 2030 - an increase of45% Mr Westwood adds," The short answer is that in the short term, they (oil price) could go lower, but in the long term hey are going to be very much higher. Oil is not a short term business and we believe that now is a great time to invest |

OPEC also must be worry to go against the rest of the world. When the world got not enough to eat, still want to increase price. Might be inviting war at their door step. Look at US, France, Germany and China. The no of warship, soldierz and airplane they have together. Can take any OPEC nation out in weeks. (Just need to find a very good excuse to start a sparks) If they cannot afford to buy oil to use on their warplance, warship and tanks as good as no weapons for their own defence. Will they see OPEC as a threat... Think again | ||||

KUWAIT CITY (AFP) - - King Abdullah of OPEC powerhouse Saudi Arabia said in an interview published on Saturday that oil prices of 75 dollars a barrel would be "fair". His comments appeared in a Kuwaiti newspaper on the day OPEC was meeting in Cairo to review the turmoil in the world oil market and decide whether another crude output cut is needed to stop prices tumbling lower. "We think that a fair price of oil is 75 dollars a barrel," the Saudi monarch told As-Sieysah newspaper. |

One must appreciate the fact the oil that is available underneath and recoverable oil are two different issues. Oil might be in large amounts in certain parts of the world, but it is getting more expensive to recover them. There might be lots of oil but if oil is not recovered can it be used? Have you guys read the outlook for oil in the website of one of the listed stock in SGX? In it the company mentioned that recoverable oil from land is getting less and the direction is more towards deep sea. Has one realise what is the cost of recovering oil from deep sea? Did you read what the CEO of a major oil company say in one of the article in the Straits Times about a year ago. I should have cut out that article but what was mentioned by the CEO is still clear in my mind. In 2 years, easily accessible oil may not be able to meet increasing demand. Ask yourself what was the situation in 2001 when oil price was low and what is the situation now? When you analyse you compare the situation before and after. If OPEC close the oil taps can oil price keep dropping? Currently, the world relies on fossil fuels for approximately 80 per cent of its energy demands, of which oil constitutes around 35 per cent. By 2030, renewable energy sources are likely to increase in contribution - but only marginally. The world will still rely on oil for potentially 25 per cent of its energy demands. |

we shall see, with such extreme views on oil prices. Yet there are reports that still claim that oil will bypass US$200 due to energy demands. Though i believe US10++ for oil is still unlikely | ||||

In a civilisational perspective, fossil oil is but one phase in the history of human energy discovery and usage. |

impossible for oil to dip that low for the following reasons: 1) USD $ is gonna sink..due to the huge ass debts it has ..funding this ..bailing out that.. it's gonna b a worthless currency soon.. and thus oil being in US$..will spike.. 2) Oil is a scarce resource..supply n dd..with cheap oil will pple still conserve energy? |

It will be exactly BBs' with their huge venture capitals that drive the price down to happen, perhap even undershot surpassing my lowest end price level! Cost of production is varied from different producer to other producer in the range of USD 6 to 12/barrel.

highly unlikely, if i'm not wrong this price is muchlower than the production cost. Besides, do u think the BBs will allow that to happen?

You need stimulus package to create jobs. So you still need energy in whatever new industry is created. We have a recession but do you see less cars on Singapore roads? The same applies to roads in China and India and many other places. |

Oil price is easily manipulated by OPEC, as long as price fall below their target price, they just announce supply cuts. The only possible way to reduce oil price permanently is to reduce demand which is unlikely for the near term | ||||
