Travelling back from the coast yesterday afternoon I spotted a BP servo at Nerang on the M1 with unleaded fuel at $1.09.9.
I'm lovin the newly found oil reserves. Cheers

You have to admit it would be far better than the 'smart state'  :I got my fuel on Friday night (premium unleaded) for around $1.10, which I was sort of happy with.. to make things even better would be to see it drop below the dollar mark (pfft as if that is ever gonna happen though :newangel: )

On the supply side: The recent uptrend in oil prices has, and always will be, caused by concern over the deliverable supply of oil (ie partly, but not only the total amount of the resource in the ground, but rather how much & how quickly it can be piped out, refined and transported to the end user). Additional reserves found in the Gulf of Mexico could mean the world is less dependent on Saudia Arabia and other middle eastern countries to maintain the world's oil supply (thus the current never-ending tension in the Middle East becomes less of a concern). It also increases the probability of infrastructure being built to enable more barrells of oil per day to be mined and refined and distributed to the world. Plus, there are potentially more reserves to be found in regions previously thought untouchable. All these factors mean the corporations & industries of the world have more choices of supplier, resultantly oil emirates and corporations have less bargaining power as supply is perceived to have increased, and as a result, oil prices fall. This one find won't change the world.. it is just another piece of daily information the markets digest when oil prices are determined. However, if it results in a number of explorers/resource companies employing the technology and finding more oil fields, and the finds progress to full scale production of quality oil, it could be the start of another downward cycle of oil prices. |
