I heard rumors about the USA totally shutting down all docking facilities and pipelines Iran has , I don’t think it has to be destructive to the structure or bombed we can just shut it down remotely, sadam Husain rampage and scorched earth policy wouldn’t serve Iran well imo
Wonder if someone will tell them to stop hitting oil infrastructure (refineries, pipelines etc.) in the Gulf or theirs will get destroyed as well.
It’s a bad environmental move to bomb Iranian oil structure in global politics, better to keep letting them be the villains in this mess, tit for tat looks bad on a global stage
Since I have a small ranch and livestock, I qualify for “farm plates” that are less expensive.
Start with what is at least partially true. The US could always produce more oil, and Texas can also produce more oil. Maybe even enough to make up for the 6-8MM barrels a days which the US imports.
Apologies for the outburst, but it was kind of like you said that .243 Winchester was just like a .475 Nitro Express, because, you know, they both have a bolt action, a stock, and a barrel...
If you dig a little deeper, you’ll see that the company owned by the husband of a former DHS Spokeswoman had a subcontract for only approximately $220k to conduct five remote filmings, produce videos and other services having to do with the filming. Theirs was a very small part of the overall advertising budget for DHS, reported as being $220,000,000. I don’t think $220k is absurd in that type of industry for five sets, all the employees, equipment and lest we forget, some profit.
Her husband? You are mistaken.Noem was marginal as a secretary. The advertising campaign was ridiculous. Especially letting her husband profit off of it. Saying the boss approved
A one two punch with Mullin and Homan is about as no nonsense as they come. Mullin should do a much better job than Noem. I just hope we get another Mullin and not another Lankford as Senator.
I know you were in the industry and you know my son is a PE for a major. He told me two days ago that they will be drilling in the TX Permian Basin and NM Delaware Basin for years and years at a high rate. There’s so much to do that they have to spread it out and that’s saying something as THE major in the industry. The reserves are huge.
I imagine we’d want the infrastructure in place for the replacement government to get their economy rolling again as soon as the old one gets torn down.
I was reading an article yesterday about Trump building a road ( Trump Peace and Prosperity Road, or something like that) from Azerbaijan to Turkey bypassing the current route through Iran which has pissed Iran off. Only reason for targeting Azerbaijan that I can think of.I am really confused about the logic of this now. Azerbaijan has no US bases or anything to do with Iran. I wonder if the Armenians are doing it and letting Iran shoulder the blame.
If true, this scorched Earth tactic is going to backfire even more.
It was in this link.

That’s my understanding too of our refineries being built to process the sour crude from the Middle East (and now Canada) which we imported for decades before the relatively recent sweet crude oil boom here which many our refineries can’t/don’t process without spending millions to retrofit them for refining our sweet crude. The oil companies export much of our lighter crude at a premium price overseas and we import the heavier crude at a lower price as our refineries are set up to process the heavier crude. At least this is my understanding after reading several articles on the subject. Maybe a petroleum expert(s) here can chime in and clarify it?
Foreign companies drill for many companies in Saudi, UAE etc.... And have assets there. If the war becomes tit for tat on oil structure, they will become targets. I am following daily, so far one oil refinery was hit twice, and one unconfirmed news that one oil rig is hit. But for oil rig, this is coming from non verifiable source, can easily be fake news.
