It seems like this Venezuelan oil is costly to process. With oil at $58 a barrel, it's my understanding that to make any money, the price has to be north of 90+. I don't think we're actually going to see cheap gas ever again under this oilygarchy. Cheap gas sounds kinda 'communist' really.

Seen on a Venezuelan protest sign, 'oilygarchy' is my favourite word of the day.

Harold Hamm's leadership of the oilygarchy in pressuring Trump has reaped benefits barely mentioned in the public square. Venezuela is probably the crown jewel they thought they had almost no chance at until recently.

A combination of state capture by the oilygarchy, slow planning process and a hub and spokes transmission network...there is an opportunity to reuse closed thermal plants as storage hubs though.

First jobs, removal warmongering leaders. Remove oilygarchy from power. Promote sciences to save and enhance the world. Use war budgets to fast track alt fuel/energy tech. Build better shelters for survival.

Because that is what his Oilygarchy handlers demand of him. Distract from the climate catastrophy by doing the ol' xenophobia trick.

Yup. Instead of the IRA you got tax breaks for the oilygarchy. Not sure the US will ever catch up.

Take away with your climate doomerism. You are pushing a narrative that is great for the Fossil Industrial Complex. Yes we are likely past the point of avoiding serious climate effects. But we are also accelerating at lightning speed.
Giving up only helps the oilygarchy.

All about the OILYgarchy. With science providing a vision for a better cleaner future, they can’t allow this, as it reduces their power over the country and the world. The few of them are forcing billions of people onto the teet of fossil fuels, so they don’t have to adapt and/or lose their power.😈

Conservatism has died. This is just criminal looting and sacking by the oilygarchy. No pretense. Just grab and stuff in their tax cheating pockets. tRUmp has his snout deep in the trough. And so many others who care nothing for humanity, and everything for a spreadsheet.

Thr rich pay off the corrupt politicians to write the laws in their favor; to borrow money to make weapons from factories they own; to cut the taxes of the rich so they don't pay; to allow pollution to maintain the oilygarchy in power.

Low oil prices will be the death of the corrupt Russian Oilygarchy. And low oil prices are unavoidable as the world switches to solar panels and EVs. If you don't believe me - EVs only in China is ALREADY displacing oil equivalent to more than all the total oil exports of Kuwait (1.6 mbpd vs 1.4)

…This might be a good time to use all the offshore oil leasing revenues that were meant to fund National & State #parks thru the #LWCF c1968 but were never fully appropriated. Not that funding parks with #oil $ is a great fix. But better than a #kleptocracy & oilygarchy keeping the $ for themselves!
