BC,
Xiden has decimated US SPR...that needs refilling...
Like your cuckold PooTin, you are desperate to win a losing battle.

Refilling the SPR isn't going to cause oil prices to rise anymore than draining it caused oil prices to fall.

Brumar already made that assumption when he praised Brandon for releasing those reserves to China.

Cause you know, 180M barrels over six months is going to make a difference in a global market that produces 90M barrels a day, LOL ...

Funny... none of your articles has anything to do with Biden. They prove my point. Thanks!

As I said 1% - Nassar in your 3rd link says 1.5%... slowing from 85 to 65 = 25% better mileage.

FROM YOUR LINKS

Meanwhile, OPEC+ keeps falling well short of its production targets, and this will likely continue. In addition, some analysts expect the cartel to implement more production cuts, further squeezing global supply.

In the U.S., inventories in the strategic petroleum reserve are at the lowest in decades, and this has worried some. Others, like Robert Rapier, have pointed out that the SPR is not as vital for the country’s supply as it used to be decades ago when the U.S. was heavily dependent on oil imports.

=======

Meanwhile, OPEC’s production shortfall last month reached 3.58 million bpd—a figure equal to some 3.5 percent of global demand—and the United States continued to sell oil from its strategic petroleum reserve.

These seemingly unrelated news reports do have something very important in common. Both clearly suggest a supply shortfall on a global level is imminent. Throw in the news that Russia’s oil exports could fall by some 2.4 million bpd after the EU embargo enters into effect in December, and an oil shortage becomes more or less unavoidable

Oil demand has remained resilient in the face of a multitude of challenges, and even prices of over $100 per barrel failed to curb it in any significant way earlier this year.

========

Nasser estimated that spare oil capacity currently only accounts for a mere 1.5% of global demand. That's a severe lag, largely due to chronic underinvestment in oil and gas production in the industry – an issue OPEC+ has also blamed for being behind soaring energy prices.

New Russian Army fitness test to include ‘drop, scream, & run’Also considering adding the empty fuel can carry

The Ghost of Jimmy Carter

Sep 26



MOSCOW — The Russian Army plans to modify its fitness test to include the drop, scream, and run event, sources confirmed today.

The test is said to reflect the type of actions Russian soldiers face during the War Special Military Operation in Ukraine.

The test features soldiers dropping a simulated AK-12 (Mossin-Nagants and pointy sticks will be used for "volunteers"), screaming at a decibel loud enough to warn others, and then a sprint in the direction of Moscow.

The test was developed to give new Russian soldiers a realistic sense of the combat and elite infantry maneuvers they are likely to see in Ukraine.

"We learned that many soldiers were not prepared for the type of action we are seeing," said Kremlin spokesman and 80's Bond villain Spasat'sya Begstvom. “We found many of our soldiers were collapsing, soiling themselves, and crying instead of making a proper reverse attack."

Despite their best effort, the Russian Super Duper Special Military Operation™ has not gone as planned. Reports indicate that Russia has suffered over 80,000 casualties since February. Many of the casualties were the result of soldiers falling from open windows while not being properly trained on how to fall safely, according to the Russian Ministry of Defense.

The drop, scream, and run is only the first of many planned amendments to the current fitness test. Other additions will include,

Empty fuel can carry

Simulated digging of civilian mass graves

Reading a map

Rat catching

Rat cooking

The new test will begin on October 1st but it may be pushed back by Ukrainian forces.
