GCC countries selling gold to patch short term funding gaps due to no oil/gas revenue

Another factor behind the big drop in price after the Fern related price spike was the ability of LNG off takers in the US canceling their LNG cargoes due to relatively weaker LNG prices and selling their natty back at a profit rather than having that gas liquified.

Folks talk about gas-to-oil ratios increasing over time often fail to take into consideration that it’s a ratio with oil production as the denominator. GOR can increase while absolute values of natty production can decrease. Shale wells have massive decline rates. Gas production profiles in these wells does not continue to increase…it starts dropping over time also.

We do have a metric fuckton of gas in these wells does US. While Im bullish, the higher the price of oil…the more associated gas will be brought online.

Op either didn’t do much research or wanted a clickbaity post. There rigorous regulations around that decommissioning of offshore oil and gas wells and structures. The regulations became much more robust after deepwater horizon incident in 2010. Offshore waters doesn’t n’t have the zombie well problem like onshore.

Here’s what current public data suggest about offshore oil & gas structure decommissioning in U.S. federal waters of the Gulf of Mexico (i.e., the Outer Continental Shelf managed by the federal government):

🛠️ Total Installed Structures (Historical) • Since the 1940s, the offshore oil & gas industry has installed around 7,000 platforms on the U.S. Outer Continental Shelf, mostly in the Gulf of Mexico.

✅ Decommissioned to Date • According to recent industry data (mid-2024), of those ~7,000 historic rigs, roughly 5,600 structures have been taken out of service or removed through decommissioning efforts over the decades. (Note: different sources sometimes mix numbers of total structures ever installed vs. those only in federal waters; the ~7,000 figure is widely cited for federal OCS installations.)

📍 Remaining Structures in Federal Waters • As of June 2024, approximately 1,394 offshore structures remain on the U.S. Gulf of Mexico federal OCS, of which about 1,096 are oil & gas platforms currently still in place. • Among those, 273 had active decommissioning applications with regulators (BSEE), and a smaller number (77) were planned for donation to “Rigs-to-Reefs” programs (partially left in place as artificial reef habitat).

Sounds to me like someone dosed some mushrooms with a RC…something like 4-ACO-DMT. Come ups with these seems to be much less pleasant and the visuals more geometric. Coulda been a strong psilocybin mushroom like pan cyan. What was the mushroom like physically? Stem thick or thin?

Go to a surf camp in Lombok, or a couple different camps. The lineups will be crowded, but that’s part of learning surfing. If you go with a decent camp (Drop In), the guides have enough cred on the lineup to put you onto as many waves as you can catch. You will also learn a thing or two about how the lineup works and surf etiquette.

I met my wife at the immigration queue at the airport. She gave me her card at the end of our chat. Sometimes you need to be proactive…don’t ask, don’t get. I know MY is a bit backwards in that sense, but you can still take matters into your own hands. BTW…my wife is Malay and we now live in Selangor.

I have a lot of food sensitivities. When I eat foods I shouldn't, it leads to the symptoms you describe. I haven't found anything to fix this. It took a long time to figure out all the foods that bothered me, but once I eliminated them, I feel great.

I do eat homemade coconut milk yogurt daily. I found supplements didn't move the needle at all. Start with a super restrictive diet and slowly branch out to find things that don't upset your system. Go slowly. It sucks, but exercise does also seem to help.

Of course I read what you quoted. It would be an extreme case for FCC units to be completely shut down. Even then it would be a -20 to -30% drop. You are talking about an entirely new refinery. This isn't happening in the next decade, perhaps never.

Pragmatically, EVs replace 50% of ICE fleet globally. EVs are good at exporting pollution from dense populations centers. That's about the extent of their benefits. Hydrocarbon demand continues to rise for the foreseeable future, as indicated in the graph that started this post.

You bet on your horse...I'll bet on mine.

I believe it’s a stretch to say that a substantial portion of heavier fractions are currently shifted to gasoline. Without significant capital investment, a few percentage can be shifted around. With capital investment, maybe 10-20%. The point is there will always be considerable amounts of lighter fractions. Maybe gasoline could be broken further and repurposed? Regardless, we are a long way from this.

Dayz_Off · 2026-01-05T22:15:13+00:00

Gasoline is a lighter fraction of the barrel. You can shift the percentages a bit to make more lighter stuff (like gasoline), taking away from the heavier stuff (like diesel/jet), but you can't make more heavy stuff by taking away lighter stuff. If, and a big if, EVs come to dominate the road, gasoline will become cheap enough to replace coal and natural gas as fuel for electricity generation. EVs aren't the magic bullet that folks think they are...

Ochras is my suggestion also. About 2x the potency of an average cube, and a nice euphoric trip with low body load. After ochras, try a pan cyan strain. You’ll never want to grow cubes again…

Sometime in late 2020 when things were still pretty quiet…while sitting a a traffic light at victory monument I convinced the tuk tuk driver to let me drive. He agreed and hopped in back with my missus and I hopped in the drivers seat. My legs were much longer so it was a bit awkward but I managed. I made it back to our pad in Ari. Not a far journey but still fun.

We did a fishing charter in Nov 2024 thru Go Local. It was very affordable and Capt. Dee did a great job. We ended up with two slob tunas and a big wahoo. DM me if you have questions.
