"It''s Appalling": In Hilarious Reversal, Biden Admin Now Slams Shale For Not Raising Output
01:00am, Thursday, 10'th Mar 2022 Zero Hedge
"It''s Appalling": In Hilarious Reversal, Biden Admin Now Slams Shale For Not Raising Output It was just last June when we asked if " ESG will trigger energy hyperinflation ", explaining that the progressives'' ESG agenda, "is unwinding the shale oil revolution. As recent events at Exxon and Shell have shown, the pressure on oil companies to reduce oil and gas exploration and adapt their business models has increased significantly over the past few months" (incidentally the answer to our rhetorical question was "yes"). We added that "ESG is a negative supply shock that internalizes the climate cost of the production of goods and services. This negative supply shock will be inflationary until technological progress absorbs these costs. That could take years. Moreover in Europe, it could garner enough of political support to justify a more aggressive fiscal policy despite the constraints at the German or EU levels." Meanwhile, the impact of ESG on oil companies has been to depress Capex spending to the lowest level in decades , leaving the energy sector entirely unprepared for any energy price spike, as it simply did not have the capacity to pump as much oil as may be needed.
Some Much Needed Substance On The Russian Oil Debate
01:00am, Thursday, 10'th Mar 2022 OilPrice com
Events occur in the energy market almost too fast to properly catalog these days. The torrent of information is cacophonous as one dire prediction for the direction of the oil price after another rolls across the ticker. Nonetheless, it behooves us to try and ferret out relevant details from this torrent of data. As I applied myself to this task one thing, in particular, became blindly apparent to me. The substance behind most of what I was hearing was pretty thin. As in almost non-existent thin. We will avoid the political side of this debate…

What China Can and Cannot Do for Russia Amid Sanctions
12:56am, Thursday, 10'th Mar 2022 Voice of America News
China''s effort to help Russia economically cannot offset Western-led sanctions aimed at resisting its invasion of Ukraine, analysts assert. The latest sanction — U.S. President Joe Biden on Tuesday announced a U.S. ban on Russian oil and gas imports as an expression of opposition to the war. "Sanctions are never the fundamental and effective way to solve problems," Liu Pengyu, spokesperson for the Chinese Embassy in Washington, wrote to VOA in an email. Since 2011, Liu said, the United States has imposed more than 100 sanctions on Russia without solving any problems. "China decides its own position and policy based on the merits of the matter itself," he said. As for Russia and Ukraine, Liu said, "we will continue to play a constructive role in seeking and achieving peace." While Beijing''s opposition to the sanctions and China''s plans to buy more Russian goods will help its northern neighbor, Moscow''s current economy still depends more on Western countries than on China, according to experts.

The One Bearish Catalyst For Oil Right Now
12:00am, Thursday, 10'th Mar 2022 OilPrice com
In the two weeks since Russia''s invasion of Ukraine, oil prices have rallied by more than $30 to top $130 per barrel as concerns about disruptions to Russian oil supply mount. Oil is now holding near its highest level since 2008, and analysts are not ruling out a continued run to all-time highs of $150 and even $200 per barrel if more Russian crude and petroleum products fail to make it to the market, either due to import bans, sanctions, a Russian retaliation to the West''s sanctions, or the ongoing "self-sanctioning" from many oil traders,…

11:55pm, Wednesday, 09'th Mar 2022 Per Second News
The Federal Government says it has banned foreigners from buying agricultural commodities and produce directly from Nigerian farmers. The ban which was approved by the Federal Executive Council (FEC), presided over by Vice President Yemi Osinbajo, is to ensure that the farmers are no longer cheated in the purchase of their farm produce. The Minister of Trade and Investment, Chief Niyi Adebayo, who briefed State House correspondents on the approval, noted that foreigners will now have to go through licensed local buying agents to do business with the farmers. Adebayo disclosed that he presented two memos on behalf of his ministry before FEC, one of which was the promotion of agribusiness in Nigeria through the right farm gate pricing, and ban on foreigners and their representatives from purchasing agricultural commodities at the farm gates. He said the council approved the establishment of an appropriate mechanism that would not only protect the indigenous farmers in terms of achieving the right prices for their goods and commodities, but also ensure that they have the appropriate incentives and the needed encouragement to guarantee their continued participation in the farming business.
